Clear aligners are a series of custom-made, removable trays that fit comfortably over your teeth to gradually move them into alignment. These aligners can be taken out when eating, brushing, and flossing, making them a convenient and flexible orthodontic solution.
Teeth that are crowded, gapped, or misaligned can be harder to keep clean, increasing the risk of tooth decay and gum disease over time. They are also more susceptible to uneven wear and damage. Straightening your teeth with clear aligners can help protect your long-term oral health.
Clear aligners offer a discreet, non-invasive way to achieve a straighter smile. If your teeth are crowded, spaced, or misaligned, this treatment can help you achieve a healthier, more confident appearance.
Your journey begins with a consultation with Dr. David Kraayenbrink, where we’ll determine if clear aligners are the right option for you. A 3D model of your teeth will be created to map out your personalized treatment plan, allowing you to preview your expected results before starting.
Your aligners will be custom-crafted specifically for your smile. Every two to four weeks, you’ll switch to a new set of aligners that gently guide your teeth into their ideal position.
Patients using clear aligners often experience less discomfort and irritation compared to traditional metal braces. Because the aligners are removable, it’s also easier to maintain proper oral hygiene throughout treatment.
