Clear Braces
The arrival of clear braces has been one of the most amazing improvements in orthodontic care in many years. Patients no longer need to experience the discomfort and unappealing appearance of metal braces.
Clear braces—also known as
clear aligners—can complete your orthodontic treatment while keeping the entire process a secret. With nearly invisible braces, no one needs to know you’re getting your teeth straightened.
How Do Clear Braces Work?
After our examination and x-rays, we take detailed images of your teeth and the inside of your mouth. We send this information to the technicians who will design and manufacture your clear aligners.
The technicians plan the exact series of aligners that will gently ease your teeth into their proper positions. Your customized aligners are then 3D-printed and sent to our office.
We’ll schedule you to come into our office and explain the whole system to you. You’ll wear the first aligner for one to two weeks and then switch to the next one in the series. A week or two later, you’ll switch to aligner number three and so on through the series.
Our patients love this more discreet and comfortable system of orthodontic care. If you need straighter teeth, talk to us about our clear braces system. We’d be happy to get you started on a straighter and healthier smile right away.
