Clear aligners move teeth through a series of custom trays, each one nudging your bite slightly closer to its final position than the last. An intraoral scanner captures your bite digitally and produces a stage-by-stage simulation of where your smile is headed.
Mild-to-moderate crowding and spacing respond well to aligners; more complex bite corrections may still call for traditional brackets. Unlike fixed braces, results depend on actually wearing the trays as prescribed, not just owning a box of them.
Attachments — small tooth-colored bumps bonded temporarily to certain teeth — give the aligner extra grip for harder movements like rotations. That planning happens upfront, so you know from day one which stages include attachments.
Your treatment plan starts from a 3D digital scan instead of a physical mold that can shift.
A stage-by-stage animation shows the expected movement before you agree to start.
If teeth need extra adjustment partway through, that's typically already accounted for in the plan.
Trays come out for meals and photos, but results depend on hitting the twenty-two-hour target.
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 one of the most common cases aligners successfully resolve.
Spacing between teeth closes gradually through calibrated pressure across successive trays.
Certain overbite and underbite cases respond well to aligners when caught before they're severe.
Small tooth-colored attachments give the aligner extra leverage on harder-to-move teeth.
A custom retainer holds your new alignment in place once the active tray series finishes.
You describe what's going on in a minute or two; no automated menu to fight through first.
We match you with a nearby specialist experienced in this exact procedure and check real-time openings.
You get a clear explanation of the treatment plan and its cost before any work begins.
You leave with the issue addressed and next steps already scheduled if needed.
"Explained every step and the cost before doing anything. First visit that didn't feel rushed."
"Price on the phone matched the invoice exactly. No surprise charges at all."
"Was honest that the closest office was full and got me into a nearby one instead of leaving me stuck."
Mild cases can wrap up in as little as six months; more involved crowding can take a year or more.
Some pressure is normal with each new tray, but it tends to be less intense than wire adjustments.
Consistent wear in that twenty-to-twenty-two-hour range is what keeps treatment on schedule.
Existing dental work is factored into the digital scan and treatment plan.
Contact the office right away; a replacement or the next tray in the series can often be issued quickly.
Cost is often comparable to braces and depends on case complexity, with a written estimate given upfront.
