Service Description

Aligners (Invisible Braces), offer a discreet and effective way to straighten teeth without traditional metal braces. Here's what you should know: What are Aligners?: Made of clear, smooth, BPA-free plastic, aligners are nearly invisible when worn. They work by applying gentle, constant pressure to gradually shift teeth into the desired position. Each set of aligners is custom-made to fit snugly over your teeth. How do Aligners Work?: Worn for 20-22 hours a day, each set of aligners is typically used for 1-2 weeks. Aligners are changed regularly to continue the progress of tooth movement. Regular check-ups with the orthodontist ensure treatment is on track. Benefits: Discreet: Virtually invisible, aligners are less noticeable than metal braces. Comfortable: Smooth plastic reduces irritation compared to metal brackets and wires. Removable: Easily taken out for eating, brushing, and special occasions. Easy Maintenance: Cleaning is simple with a gentle brush and lukewarm water. Shorter Treatment: Some cases may have shorter treatment times compared to traditional braces. Candidates: Suitable for adults and teens with mild to moderate orthodontic issues. Commonly used for crowded teeth, gaps, and mild bite problems. Severe cases may require traditional braces for optimal results. Treatment Process: Consultation: Orthodontist assesses your teeth and discusses treatment options. Customization: Using 3D scans, custom aligners are created for your teeth. Wearing Aligners: Each set is worn for 1-2 weeks, progressing through the series. Monitoring: Regular check-ups every 4-6 weeks track progress and provide new aligners. Retention: After treatment, a retainer may be recommended to maintain the new alignment. Care Tips: Remove before eating or drinking (except water) to prevent staining. Clean aligners daily with a soft brush and mild soap or denture cleaner. Store in their case when not in use to prevent loss or damage. Avoid hot water and harsh chemicals that can distort or damage aligners. Cost and Insurance: Cost varies based on complexity and duration of treatment. Some dental insurance plans cover aligner treatment partially. Payment plans are often available through orthodontic offices. Aligners offer convenience, comfort, and discretion in achieving a straighter smile. Consult with an orthodontist to see if aligners are the right choice for your orthodontic needs. With proper care and adherence to treatment, aligners can help you achieve
