Clear aligners move teeth through a series of custom trays, each one nudging your bite slightly closer to its final position than the last. A digital scan replaces the old impression goop, mapping your teeth in minutes and generating a preview of the full treatment before you agree to anything.
Mild-to-moderate crowding and spacing respond well to aligners; more complex bite corrections may still call for traditional brackets. Unlike fixed braces, results depend on actually wearing the trays as prescribed, not just owning a box of them.
Attachments — small tooth-colored bumps bonded temporarily to certain teeth — give the aligner extra grip for harder movements like rotations. Your provider maps out which teeth need attachments during digital treatment planning, before the first tray is ordered.
Your treatment plan starts from a 3D digital scan instead of a physical mold that can shift.
A stage-by-stage animation shows the expected movement before you agree to start.
Mid-course corrections are common, and most plans include refinement trays rather than billing them separately.
Flexibility comes with responsibility — consistent wear is what keeps the timeline on track.
Whatever the specifics of your case, the specialist we route you to has handled it before.
Your provider walks through the simulated movement stage by stage during the consult.
Aligners gradually shift crowded teeth into alignment across a series of custom trays.
Front-tooth gaps typically close over a series of tray changes spaced roughly two weeks apart.
Certain overbite and underbite cases respond well to aligners when caught before they're severe.
Minimal enamel reshaping between teeth sometimes creates the space alignment requires.
A custom retainer holds your new alignment in place once the active tray series finishes.
A coordinator answers and asks a few quick questions about your specific case and how urgent it is.
