Clear Aligners
Achieve a straighter smile discreetly with clear aligners that are nearly invisible and much more comfortable than traditional braces.
Why Choose clear aligners?
Crowded, crooked, misaligned teeth might have you wishing for a straighter smile. With aligners, you can achieve the smile of your dreams discreetly while restoring the correct function of your bite. And you’ll prevent future chipping and breakdown of the teeth.
The clear aligners are nearly invisible, and this option causes much less irritation to your gums and cheeks than metal braces. A well-aligned bite is also easier to maintain with brushing and flossing.
Advantages of Clear Aligners
- Nearly invisible appearance
- Removable for eating and cleaning
- No dietary restrictions
- Comfortable with no metal brackets
- Fewer office visits required
- Predictable results with 3D planning
