For patients who postponed straightening their teeth for years because of the 'braces look', clear aligners changed the game. These nearly invisible trays move teeth step by step with digital planning.
How does clear aligner treatment work?
A digital intraoral scan creates a 3D simulation of your treatment. Each aligner set moves the teeth in small steps and is replaced every 1-2 weeks. For results, they must be worn 20-22 hours a day.
Advantages over braces
Beyond being invisible, the biggest advantage is hygiene: since aligners are removable, there are no food restrictions and your brushing and flossing routine continues as usual. Small tooth-colored attachments make even complex movements possible.
Who is it suitable for?
Clear aligners succeed in mild to moderate crowding, gaps and many bite problems. Advanced skeletal issues may need braces or combined treatment; the right choice is determined by an orthodontic examination.
Success depends on compliance: if you do not wear your aligners for the recommended hours, the planned movement simply does not happen and treatment takes longer.
