How Aligners Work

Clear aligners gradually move your teeth, but without any metal wires or braces. Clarity Aligners treatment uses a system of removable, nearly invisible plastic trays designed to help guide your teeth into the ideal position to help you achieve the happy, healthy smile you want.

Ready to straighten your teeth? Clearly, you’re on the right track!

  • Orthodontists are specially trained on the proper way to align jaws and straighten teeth. We are excited to discuss the full range of treatment options.
  • During your initial consultation, we will discuss your lifestyle, get to know your day-to-day activities, and learn about your treatment goals. From there, we will determine the right option for you and your smile.
  • Treatment using Clarity Aligners starts with a custom, digital treatment plan that shows you exactly how your teeth will move and how long it will take to reshape your smile.
  • You will get a series of clear aligners that should be worn for about one to two weeks each, depending on your custom treatment plan. The total number of aligners needed to complete your treatment will vary, based on your smile’s needs.
  • We recommend wearing your aligners 22 hours a day. The aligners are nearly invisible so you can go through your treatment and look good doing it.

If you want to improve your smile with a clear solution, schedule your consultation today!

Clear Expectations

How long will I be in treatment?

Every smile is unique, and the length of treatment varies, based on your smile’s needs. You can be confident that your Clarity Aligners treatment plan will be custom-designed to achieve the happy, healthy smile you want.

Are clear aligners comfortable to wear?

You may experience some initial discomfort with each aligner, but the more you wear them, the more comfortable they become ... and the more confident you can smile.

How many hours do I need to have the aligners in?

Wear your aligners for 22 hours a day or as prescribed.

How often should I change my aligners?

You want to be sure to wear your Clarity Aligners in sequential order according to the numbering on the packaging, so you’ll move through treatment as directed.

Can I eat with clear aligners?

You will want to remove your aligners to enjoy your favorite foods and drinks (except water), and keep them clear and clean.

How do I keep my aligners clean?

Clean your aligners with a toothbrush and cool water. Specific cleaning instructions are included in your Clarity Aligners welcome kit.
