Clear Aligners

Clear teeth aligners are orthodontic devices used to straighten teeth discreetly. They are custom-made, transparent plastic trays that gradually shift teeth into the desired position.

​

Pros:

• Discreet: Nearly invisible, offering a cosmetic advantage over traditional braces

• Removable: Can be taken out while eating, drinking, and brushing, promoting better oral hygiene1.

• Comfort: Generally more comfortable than braces, with no metal wires or brackets

• Convenience: Require fewer dental visits and have fewer food restrictions

​

Cons:

• Effectiveness: Best suited for mild to moderate alignment issues, not severe cases

• Compliance: Must be worn 20-22 hours a day for effective treatment

• Maintenance: Need to be cleaned regularly to prevent staining

• Cost: Can be expensive and not always covered by insurance
