How Do Clear Aligners Work?

Clear aligners are a modern orthodontic solution that gradually shifts your teeth into their desired positions. But how exactly do they work?

The process starts with a custom 3D scan of your teeth. This scan is used to create a series of aligner trays, each designed to make small adjustments over time. You’ll wear each set of aligners for about 1-2 weeks, allowing your teeth to move progressively until they’re perfectly aligned.

Clear aligners should be worn for 20-22 hours a day, only taking them out to eat, drink, or brush. Following this schedule ensures that your teeth move efficiently and as planned, with noticeable improvements usually visible within just a few months.

If you're looking for a flexible and nearly invisible way to straighten your teeth, clear aligners may be the perfect choice for you!
