Clear aligners are a popular orthodontic solution that can straighten teeth without the traditional metal braces. Custom-made to fit your mouth, these removable plastic trays gradually shift your teeth into their ideal position. This treatment is ideal for patients who are seeking a discreet and comfortable teeth-straightening option.
Types of Clear Aligners We Offer
The process begins with a consultation with Dr. Blake Sherrick where we evaluate your oral health and discuss your alignment goals. Next, we take digital impressions of your teeth to create your unique set of aligners. Patients wear each set for about two weeks, then switch to the next in the series, gradually moving their teeth over time.
One of the main benefits of clear aligners is their nearly invisible appearance, allowing patients to maintain their natural smile throughout treatment. Because they are also removable, they are easier to handle when it comes to eating, drinking and oral hygiene. This flexibility makes it easier to maintain good oral hygiene compared to traditional braces.
Research shows that clear aligners can correct various dental issues, including crowded teeth, overbites, underbites and gaps. Clear aligners offer a convenient, effective and aesthetically pleasing method to achieve a healthier, straighter smile.
