Clear aligners move teeth through a series of custom trays, each one nudging your bite slightly closer to its final position than the last. An intraoral scanner captures your bite digitally and produces a stage-by-stage simulation of where your smile is headed.
Mild-to-moderate crowding and spacing respond well to aligners; more complex bite corrections may still call for traditional brackets. They only work if worn roughly twenty-two hours a day, out just for eating and brushing — the trays don't do the work by sitting in a drawer.
For teeth needing more than simple tipping, small bonded attachments act as anchor points the aligner pushes against. 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.
Our network specialists cover the full range of this procedure, from the routine case to the complicated one.
A 3D scan generates a preview of your projected results before any trays are ordered.
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.
Mild bite discrepancies can often be corrected with aligners paired with small attachments for grip.
Small tooth-colored attachments give the aligner extra leverage on harder-to-move teeth.
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.
