Clear aligners do away with the unsightly metal brackets and wires used in traditional orthodontics. Invisalign and SureSmile are made of transparent plastic that won't disrupt your facial esthetics.

removable

Perhaps the biggest advantage of using clear aligners is that you don't have to deal with the discomfort of traditional braces because they're removable. You can switch trays out every few weeks and brush, floss, and eat all your favorite foods without hassle.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Our priority is to keep you informed, every step of the way. Here are a few questions that our patients frequently ask.

How do clear aligners differ from traditional braces?

Clear aligners are a modern innovation on traditional orthodontic treatment. Instead of metal braces, the aligners are made of clear plastic designed to fit snugly over the teeth and gradually shift them into place over time. The aligners can be removed for cleaning or eating and are nearly invisible when worn, meaning you won't feel self-conscious about your smile.

How long does it take to straighten teeth?

Depending on your individual needs and the severity of your case, it could take anywhere from six months to two years  to complete treatment. Dr. Nicole Vane will give you more specific information after assessing your situation.

What happens after treatment is complete?

Once your teeth have shifted into place using clear aligner therapy, Dr. Vane will provide a custom retainer that you must wear at night to keep your newly straightened teeth in place. This retainer helps keep the teeth in their desired position while preventing any relapse or shifting of the teeth once treatment is completed.
