Clear Aligners

Introduction

A straight, confident smile is no longer limited to traditional metal braces. Clear aligners are a modern orthodontic solution designed to gradually move teeth into their proper position using nearly invisible, removable trays. They are comfortable, discreet, and lifestyle-friendly, making them a popular choice among both adults and teens.

What are clear aligners?

Clear aligners are custom-made, transparent plastic trays that fit snugly over your teeth. Each set of aligners applies gentle pressure to shift teeth slightly, and as you progress through the series, your teeth gradually move into alignment. Since they are removable, you can eat, drink, brush, and floss without restrictions.

Who is an Ideal Candidate?

  • Individuals with mild to moderate misalignment

  • People with crowding, spacing, or crooked teeth

  • Patients with bite issues (overbite, underbite, crossbite, open bite)

  • Adults and teens seeking a discreet alternative to braces

  • Those committed to wearing aligners consistently (20–22 hours per day)

Treatment Process – Step by Step

  1. Consultation & Digital Scan: 3D scans or impressions are taken to map out a treatment plan.

  2. Custom Aligners: A series of aligners are designed for your teeth.

  3. Wearing Aligners: Each set is worn for 1–2 weeks, moving teeth gradually.

  4. Check-ups: Regular visits to monitor progress and provide new aligners.

  5. Retention: After treatment, retainers are provided to keep teeth in position.

⏱ The average treatment duration is 6–18 months, depending on the case.

After Treatment Instructions

  • Wear retainers as prescribed to maintain results.

  • Brush and floss regularly to keep teeth and aligners clean.
