Clear aligners are a discreet alternative to traditional braces, using a series of transparent, removable trays to gradually adjust the position of your teeth. They can be suitable for many mild to moderate alignment concerns.
Our dentists will assess your teeth and bite to determine whether clear aligners are the right option for you. We’ll explain the process, expected outcomes, and any potential risks or limitations before starting treatment.
Clear aligners are worn over your teeth and replaced at regular intervals as treatment progresses. They can be removed for eating, brushing, and flossing, and are designed to be less noticeable than metal braces.
Some patients find clear aligners more comfortable than braces, but they still require consistent wear to be effective. Mild discomfort or pressure can occur as your teeth move into their new positions.
