Orthodontic Aligners

What is it?

Orthodontic aligners are a series of clear, removable trays used to straighten your teeth gradually. They are an alternative to traditional metal braces and are designed to be worn over your teeth to gently shift them into the desired position. Made from a transparent, durable plastic material, aligners are nearly invisible, making them a popular choice for adults and teens who want to improve their smile without the noticeable appearance of traditional braces.

How Aligners Work:

Custom-Made for Your Smile: Using digital scans and 3D technology, we create a set of aligners that are custom-fitted to your teeth and treatment plan.
Gradual Shifting: Each set of aligners moves your teeth incrementally. As you progress through the series, your teeth shift into their final, straightened position.
Removable and Comfortable: Unlike traditional braces, aligners are removable, so you can eat, drink, and clean your teeth without restrictions. They are also made from smooth plastic to minimize irritation to your gums and cheeks.

Why is it done?

Orthodontic aligners are used to treat a variety of dental issues related to teeth misalignment, offering both cosmetic and functional benefits. If you have crooked, spaced, or misaligned teeth, aligners can help improve the appearance of your smile, enhance your bite, and improve oral health.

Reasons to Consider Orthodontic Aligners:

Teeth Alignment: To straighten crooked or crowded teeth, which may impact both appearance and bite functionality.
Overbite or Underbite: Aligners help correct bite issues, ensuring your upper and lower teeth meet properly when you chew, which can reduce wear on teeth and alleviate jaw pain.
Gaps Between Teeth: If you have spaces between your teeth, aligners can gradually close these gaps for a more even smile.
Overall Oral Health: Misaligned teeth can be harder to clean, leading to increased risk of cavities, gum disease, and tooth wear. Aligners improve the positioning of your teeth, making them easier to clean and maintain.

Our Comprehensive Aligners Services Include:

Initial Consultation and Examination: We begin with a comprehensive evaluation of your teeth and bite. Using state-of-the-art imaging technology, we assess the position of your teeth and discuss your smile goals. This helps us determine if aligners are the right choice for you.

Clear Aligners Fabrication: Once your treatment plan is finalized, we design your aligners using high-quality, clear plastic that fits snugly over your teeth. You’ll receive a set of aligners, each designed to be worn for approximately 1-2 weeks before progressing to the next set.
Ongoing Monitoring and Adjustments: Although aligners are removable, it’s important to wear them as directed for optimal results. We’ll schedule periodic check-ups to monitor your progress and ensure your treatment is on track. Any adjustments to your aligners can be made as needed.
Final Results and Retention: Once you’ve completed your series of aligners and your teeth are in their final position, we’ll provide you with a retainer to maintain the results and prevent your teeth from shifting back.
