Would you love to straighten your teeth, but are not interested in starting an orthodontic journey of wearing traditional metal braces? We have adult and teen patients that would love to improve their smile but are not interested in traditional treatment.

There are a number of benefits of using clear aligners for orthodontic treatment. The biggest benefit is the trays are removable. Patients love being able to enjoy their favorite foods. Patients also like being able to brush and floss their teeth as normal without having to clean around brackets and wires.

Patients are given a number of trays at one time that are transitioned out following our instructions. This limits the number of office visits which is a benefit to our busy patients.
