Clear aligners work by applying calibrated, incremental pressure through a series of custom trays, each one shifting your teeth slightly closer to their final position. A digital scan replaces the old goopy impression trays, mapping your bite in minutes and generating a full treatment simulation before you commit.
Mild-to-moderate crowding, gaps, and bite issues respond well to aligners; more complex bite corrections may still need traditional brackets and wires. Unlike braces, aligners are removable, which means results depend on actually wearing them as prescribed, not just owning the trays.
For teeth that need more than simple tipping, small bonded attachments act as anchor points the aligner can push against. Your provider maps out exactly which teeth need attachments during the digital treatment planning stage, before the first tray is ordered.
Intraoral scanners replace old-style impression trays for a faster, more accurate starting scan.
A stage-by-stage simulation shows how your teeth are expected to move before any trays are ordered.
Mid-course corrections are common and typically included rather than billed as a separate service.
Unlike brackets, aligners come out for meals and photos, provided you stay disciplined about wear time.
Our network specialists cover the full range of this procedure, from the routine case to the complicated one.
Your provider walks you through the simulated tooth movement stage by stage during the consult.
Crowded front teeth are among the most common cases aligners successfully correct.
Spacing between teeth is closed gradually through calibrated pressure across successive trays.
Mild bite discrepancies can often be corrected with aligners paired with attachments for extra grip.
Small tooth-colored attachments give aligners extra leverage on harder-to-move teeth.
Retainers are fitted immediately after your final tray to prevent teeth from drifting back.

Existing dental work is usually accounted for during the digital scan and treatment planning.
