For most patients, clear aligners are a great alternative to traditional braces for straightening your smile.
How do clear aligners work?
Clear aligners are custom-made to fit over your teeth and gradually guide them into place. At the start of treatment, a full series of aligners is made. As you progress, you switch to the next one. Each is a little different, so your teeth keep moving to match, as long as you wear them at least 20 hours a day.
How are clear aligners made for me?
It starts with a digital scan of your teeth using our iTero scanner, which takes less than 5 minutes. From there, we build a digital model of your smile, and Dr. Jones designs a unique, customized treatment plan on the computer. The lab then makes your aligners from that plan.
What are the benefits of clear aligners?
- No food limitations!
- Because they come out, brushing, flossing, and keeping your teeth and gums healthy is easy.
- They're comfortable and less likely to irritate your gums and cheeks than braces.
- They help protect your teeth from grinding wear.
A complimentary consultation is your next step toward the beautiful smile you've always wanted.
