Clear Aligners![]() What are Clear Aligners?Clear aligners are a special type of orthodontic treatment that will correct your smile and straighten your teeth without the use of metal braces. Typically, it is the process of wearing a series of multiple clear, removable aligners. They are virtually invisible because of how tightly the clear aligner fits your teeth. They are FDA (Food and Drug Administration) approved and contain no BPA, BPS, latex, or gluten, which makes them safe for someone facing any of these allergies. What makes clear aligners a unique product compared to hard, metal braces are that they are made of a strong, but flexible plastic. When wearing braces, you can cut your lips, gums, and you can break a wire which can all be extremely painful, but with the help of clear aligners you do not have to worry about the unnecessary pain that comes with braces. Benefits of Clear AlignersBesides the major fact that clear aligners can straighten your teeth at a much lower cost, clear aligners are removable. Unlike braces that you have to wear all hours of the day, every day, clear aligners can be taken out to eat, drink, brush, floss, and even for special occasions. Before getting your clear aligner treatments, they are trimmed to fit your gum line so that you will have the best, natural fit to your teeth. Whether you have an overbite, crossbite, crowded teeth, underbite, open bite, gap teeth, or generally straight teeth, clear aligners can affect your life in the most positive way. Although clear aligners have been proven to be cheaper than braces, there is no set cost for using clear aligners because each person’s smile is unique. Our dentists can give you a consultation and an estimated price on how much clear aligners will cost for you. Clear aligners offer you many different benefits compared to braces, even though the main idea is to give you the straight teeth that you have always wanted.
