Straighter Teeth Without Braces

What are Clear Aligners?

Clear aligners offer a modern orthodontic solution, employing a sequence of transparent, removable trays to progressively align crooked teeth. Custom-crafted for your individual smile, these aligners subtly move your teeth into the intended alignment over time, achieving a straighter smile without the need for conventional braces.

Comfortable, Customized Treatment

What is the Clear Aligners Procedure Like?

The process of clear aligner treatment starts with a consultation with one of our reliable dentists. We use either a dental impression kit or digital scans to design retainers tailored to your teeth. Each set of aligners is worn for approximately one to two weeks before advancing to the subsequent set. Periodic visits to our office will enable us to monitor your progress and implement any necessary adjustments.

Convenient & Discreet

What are the Benefits of Clear Aligners?

  • Discreet: These aligners are nearly invisible, so they're not noticeable to others.
  • Comfortable: Made from smooth plastic, they are more comfortable than metal braces, avoiding irritation from brackets and wires.
  • Removable: You can take them out for meals and cleaning, which aids in maintaining excellent oral hygiene.
  • Effective: Clear aligners efficiently straighten teeth and address various orthodontic concerns when worn consistently. We aim for optimal bite alignment to ensure lasting results for you.
  • Convenient: Treatment duration is often less than with traditional braces, requiring fewer visits to the office.
  • Healthy: Properly aligned teeth enhance ease of cleaning, reducing risks of cavities and gum issues. Well-aligned teeth also minimize uneven wear, alleviate jaw discomfort, and support TMJ health.

A Beautiful Solution for Misaligned Teeth

Are Clear Aligners Right for You?

Clear aligners offer a discreet and comfortable method for teeth straightening, ideal for teens and adults. Have you noticed crowding that makes flossing challenging? Did you have braces but forgot to wear your retainers, leading to some relapse? You might be an excellent candidate for clear aligners! However, they aren't suitable for everyone. Complex orthodontic situations may still require traditional braces. Our dentists will assess your specific needs to determine if clear aligners are the optimal choice.

Why should I get clear aligners done at my dental office instead of ordering them from an online service that offers mail-in retainers?

Orthodontic treatments, such as teeth alignment, are best supervised by a dental professional. DIY approaches can lead to unpredictable outcomes, such as loose teeth or damage due to incorrect forces applied to the teeth or jawbone. We highly recommend seeking treatment from a trusted local provider, such as an orthodontist or one of our fantastic team members at The Dental Team.

The treatment cost varies based on case complexity and duration. Typically it ranges between $4,000-6,000 per treatment. We offer various payment plans to ensure affordability.

Insurance coverage for clear aligners can differ. If braces are included in your plan, there's a good chance clear aligners will be too! We suggest checking with your insurer or visiting us for a consultation so we can assist you in understanding what your plan includes.
