Clear aligners move teeth through a series of custom trays, each one nudging your bite slightly closer to its final position than the last. An intraoral scanner captures your bite digitally and produces a stage-by-stage simulation of where your smile is headed.
Mild-to-moderate crowding and spacing respond well to aligners; more complex bite corrections may still call for traditional brackets. They only work if worn roughly twenty-two hours a day, out just for eating and brushing — the trays don't do the work by sitting in a drawer.
Attachments — small tooth-colored bumps bonded temporarily to certain teeth — give the aligner extra grip for harder movements like rotations. That planning happens upfront, so you know from day one which stages include attachments.
Intraoral scanners replace the old goopy impressions for a faster, more accurate starting point.
A stage-by-stage animation shows the expected movement before you agree to start.
Mid-course corrections are common, and most plans include refinement trays rather than billing them separately.
Trays come out for meals and photos, but results depend on hitting the twenty-two-hour target.
Whatever the specifics of your case, the specialist we route you to has handled it before.
Your provider walks through the simulated movement stage by stage during the consult.
Crowded front teeth are one of the most common cases aligners successfully resolve.
Front-tooth gaps typically close over a series of tray changes spaced roughly two weeks apart.
Certain overbite and underbite cases respond well to aligners when caught before they're severe.
Small tooth-colored attachments give the aligner extra leverage on harder-to-move teeth.
A custom retainer holds your new alignment in place once the active tray series finishes.
A coordinator answers and asks a few quick questions about your specific case and how urgent it is.

You get a clear explanation of the treatment plan and its cost before any work begins.
Treatment proceeds on the agreed plan, with aftercare instructions and a follow-up if the case calls for one.
"Called and they were upfront that my usual office was booked, then found me somewhere open the same week."
"Price on the phone matched the invoice exactly. No surprise charges at all."
"No upsells, no pressure. Just the treatment I needed at the price I was told upfront."
Most cases run six to eighteen months depending on how much correction is needed.
Aligners generally cause milder, shorter pressure discomfort than the tightening soreness of braces.
Around twenty-two hours daily is standard, removed only for eating and brushing.
Crowns and fillings don't automatically rule you out; the simulation accounts for them.
Depending on your stage, moving to the next tray or getting a replacement made are both options.
