Clear aligners are the perfect solution for patients interested in low-profile orthodontic treatment. These virtually invisible plastic trays gradually shift your teeth into the desired position without any metal brackets or wires getting in the way.
Clear aligners use a series of clear, custom-made trays to straighten teeth. The trays are made of a smooth, comfortable plastic that’s virtually invisible, making them a popular choice for those who want to straighten their teeth without the look of traditional metal braces.
You’ll love their low profile and convenience since you can clean your teeth just like always by popping the trays out for brushing sessions.
Clear aligners apply gentle, constant pressure to your teeth, gradually shifting them into the desired position.
You’ll wear each set of trays for one week, then switch to the next set in the series. Over time, your teeth will align correctly, leading you to a straighter, more beautiful smile.

Just about anything you need under one roof.
This clear aligner is custom-made to apply gentle, controlled pressure to your teeth, gradually moving them into the desired position.
While clear aligners aren’t typically painful, you may experience mild pressure or discomfort for a few days after changing to a new set.
Treatment typically takes between 6–18 months, depending on the severity of your alignment needs and your commitment to wearing the aligners as instructed.
It’s best to remove your aligners before eating or drinking anything other than water to help avoid staining or damage.
For optimal results, wear your aligners 20–22 hours each day and only remove them for eating, drinking, and cleaning.
Most people experience a short adjustment period when they first begin wearing clear aligners, but speech typically returns to normal within a few days.
No, it's important to remove your aligners when brushing your teeth to ensure both your teeth and the aligners stay clean and free of bacteria.
