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.
Attachments — small tooth-colored bumps bonded temporarily to certain teeth — give the aligner extra grip for more difficult movements like rotations. Your provider maps out exactly which teeth need attachments during the digital treatment planning stage, before the first tray is ordered.
Your treatment plan starts from a 3D digital scan rather than a physical mold that can shift or distort.
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.
Take them out to eat, brush, and for special occasions, then back in for the full wear schedule.
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.
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 attachments for extra grip.
Small tooth-colored attachments give aligners extra leverage on harder-to-move teeth.
A custom retainer holds your new alignment in place once the active tray series is complete.
You describe what's going on; no automated menu, no long hold.

Consistent wear — roughly twenty to twenty-two hours — is what keeps treatment on schedule.
Existing dental work is usually accounted for during the digital scan and treatment planning.
