Clear Aligners
Clear Aligners are a way of straightening your smile without wearing traditional metal braces. Clear Aligners are made up of a series of clear thermoplastic aligners that are customized to fit over your teeth. Each aligner is specifically designed to shift certain teeth throughout the course of your treatment. These aligners are removable for daily oral hygiene (brushing and flossing). Garden Valley Smiles uses Invisalign and Sure Smile brand clear aligners.
Clear Aligners:
- Can enjoy foods that aren’t as easy to eat when wearing permanent braces. (Just remove aligners before eating)
- Treatment period is usually shorter compared to traditional braces.
- Avoid the discomfort that is common in the early stages of wearing metal braces.
