Begin Your Clear Aligner Journey in Just Three Steps

Starting your clear aligner treatment is surprisingly simple.

First, your dentist takes detailed 3-D scans of your teeth - no messy putty impressions are needed. These precise digital models allow us to map out every step of your tooth movement and show you a preview of your future smile before treatment begins.

Once your custom aligners arrive, you'll wear each set for about two weeks before switching to the next. You'll visit us just once every six to eight weeks for quick progress checks. You'll change your aligners at home, saving valuable time.

Most clear aligner treatments are completed in six to 18 months, depending on your specific needs. The sooner you start, the faster you'll enjoy your new smile!

Frequently Asked Questions About Clear Aligners

How long do I need to wear my clear aligners each day?
For best results, wear your aligners 20-22 hours daily, removing them only for eating, drinking anything besides water, and cleaning your teeth. Consistent wear ensures your treatment stays on schedule. Skipping hours can delay your progress and might require additional treatment time. Most patients quickly adapt to this routine within the first week.
Will clear aligners hurt?
Clear aligners cause less discomfort than traditional braces. You may feel slight pressure for one to three days when switching to a new aligner set, indicating teeth are moving as planned. This mild discomfort can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers if needed. The smooth plastic also eliminates the mouth sores and irritation commonly experienced with metal brackets.
How do I clean my clear aligners?
Clean your aligners morning and night by gently brushing them with a soft toothbrush and clear, unscented soap or specialized aligner cleaner. Avoid toothpaste, which can scratch and cloud the plastic. Rinse them thoroughly before reinserting. Weekly soaking in cleaning crystals helps remove buildup. Never use hot water, which can warp the plastic.
