Clear aligners work by applying calibrated, incremental pressure through a series of custom trays, each one shifting your teeth slightly closer to their final position. A digital scan replaces the old goopy impression trays, mapping your bite in minutes and generating a full treatment simulation before you commit.
Aligners handle a wide range of cases now, though a provider will tell you upfront if your case is better suited to fixed braces instead. Unlike braces, aligners are removable, which means results depend on actually wearing them as prescribed, not just owning the trays.
For teeth that need more than simple tipping, small bonded attachments act as anchor points the aligner can push against. Your provider maps out exactly which teeth need attachments during the digital treatment planning stage, before the first tray is ordered.
Your treatment plan starts from a 3D digital scan rather than a physical mold that can shift or distort.
You see a digital preview of your projected final smile before agreeing to start treatment.
Mid-course corrections are common and typically included rather than billed as a separate service.
Unlike brackets, aligners come out for meals and photos, provided you stay disciplined about wear time.
Our network specialists cover the full range of this procedure, from the routine case to the complicated one.
A 3D scan generates a preview of your projected results before any trays are ordered.
Crowded front teeth are among the most common cases aligners successfully correct.
Front-tooth gaps typically close over a series of tray changes spaced roughly two weeks apart.
Mild bite discrepancies can often be corrected with aligners paired with attachments for extra grip.
Small tooth-colored attachments give aligners extra leverage on harder-to-move teeth.
A custom retainer holds your new alignment in place once the active tray series is complete.
A coordinator answers and asks a few quick questions about your specific case and how soon you need care.
