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. Instead of physical molds, an intraoral scanner captures your bite digitally and produces a preview of how your smile will move, stage by stage.
Mild-to-moderate crowding, gaps, and bite issues respond well to aligners; more complex bite corrections may still need traditional brackets and wires. Compliance matters here — aligners only work if they're worn roughly twenty-two hours a day, removed just for eating and brushing.
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.
If teeth need extra adjustment partway through, refinement trays are built into most treatment plans.
Unlike brackets, aligners come out for meals and photos, provided you stay disciplined about wear time.
Our network specialists cover the full range of this procedure, from the routine case to the complicated one.
A 3D scan generates a preview of your projected results before any trays are ordered.
Aligners gradually shift crowded teeth into alignment over a series of custom trays.
Spacing between teeth is closed gradually through calibrated pressure across successive trays.
Mild bite discrepancies can often be corrected with aligners paired with attachments for extra grip.
Minimal enamel reshaping between teeth sometimes creates space needed for proper alignment.
Retainers are fitted immediately after your final tray to prevent teeth from drifting back.

Most cases run between six and eighteen months depending on how much correction is needed.
There's usually some pressure with each new tray, but it tends to be less intense than traditional wire adjustments.
Around twenty-two hours daily is the standard recommendation, removing them only to eat and brush.
Existing dental work is usually accounted for during the digital scan and treatment planning.
Skipping ahead to the next tray or getting a replacement made are both options depending on your stage.
Pricing depends on how many trays your case requires, and that's laid out before you commit to treatment.
