Clear aligner therapy for teenagers is an orthodontic treatment designed to straighten teeth discreetly and comfortably. Here’s an overview:

How It Works:

• Custom-Fit Aligners: Clear aligners are custom-made from a smooth, transparent plastic material to fit snugly over the teeth. Each set of aligners is designed to gradually shift teeth into their desired positions.

• Treatment Plan: We will create a detailed treatment plan using advanced digital imaging to map out the movement of the teeth throughout the therapy. This plan is used to produce a series of aligners, each slightly adjusted to continue the teeth movement process.

Benefits:

• Discreet Appearance: Aligners are nearly invisible, making them a popular choice for teens who prefer a less noticeable treatment option compared to traditional metal braces.

• Comfort: The smooth plastic material reduces the risk of irritation to the gums and cheeks that is often associated with metal braces.

• Removability: Aligners can be removed for eating, drinking, and oral hygiene, allowing for easier maintenance of dental care compared to fixed braces.

• Fewer Office Visits: Unlike traditional braces, clear aligners generally require fewer office visits for adjustments, as the aligners are replaced every few weeks as prescribed.
