Benefits of Clear Aligners
The Clear Aligners Process
Clear aligners are a revolutionary process that shifts teeth into place for a more natural smile using advanced 3D computer technology.

STEP 1
Consultation
To begin the clear aligners process, a consultation with your dentist will determine if this is the best treatment for the condition of your teeth.

STEP 2
Establishing a treatment plan
In the planning stages, pictures, x-rays and impressions of the teeth will be taken for the 3D imaging of the mouth.

STEP 3
Inserting the Aligner
The customized aligners will be ordered and properly fitted at the dentist office to ensure you are comfortable in the wearing, removal, and repositioning of the aligner.

STEP 4
Wearing the Aligner
The aligners are interchanged with new ones every one to two weeks as directed by your dentist. The aligner is to be worn 20 to 22 hours per day during the treatment process.

STEP 5
Regular Checkups
It is important to keep all scheduled appointments with your dentist to have the movement of the teeth monitored to ensure the treatment is working as expected.

STEP 6
Completion of treatment
Once the teeth have reached the appropriate placement, use of the clear aligners treatment will be complete.

STEP 7
Wearing a retainer
Based on the final stage, your dentist will usually advise you to wear a retainer following treatment.
