Discreet, Personalized Clear Aligner Treatment for a Healthier Smile
At Isles Dental, Dr. Robert Springer provides personalized clear aligner treatment to help patients achieve a straighter, healthier smile with minimal disruption to their daily lives. Whether you want to fix mild crowding, close gaps, or improve your bite, clear aligners offer a convenient, nearly invisible solution.
What Are Clear Aligners?
Clear aligners are transparent, removable trays designed to gradually shift teeth into proper alignment over time. They are custom-made using digital impressions and advanced 3D technology to ensure a precise, comfortable fit.
Benefits of Clear Aligners:
- Virtually Invisible – Clear trays are discreet and blend seamlessly with your natural smile.
- Comfortable & Smooth – No brackets or wires to cause irritation.
- Removable – Eat, drink, and clean your teeth without restrictions.
- Effective & Predictable – Custom treatment plans ensure gradual, controlled tooth movement.
With clear aligners, you can confidently straighten your teeth without the discomfort or appearance of traditional braces.
What Can Clear Aligners Fix?
Clear aligners effectively treat a variety of orthodontic concerns, including:
- Crowded teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- Mild to moderate bite misalignment
- Overbites, underbites, and crossbites
- Teeth that have shifted after previous orthodontic treatment
During your consultation, Dr. Springer will assess your smile and determine if clear aligners are the right choice for you.
How Clear Aligner Treatment Works
1. Initial Consultation & Digital Impressions
We begin with a comprehensive exam and digital scan to create a precise 3D model of your teeth. This allows us to design a custom treatment plan tailored to your specific alignment needs.
2. Custom Aligners & Treatment Plan
Your series of custom aligner trays will be created to gradually shift your teeth into place. Each set of trays is worn for about one to two weeks before moving to the next stage.
3. Wearing & Maintaining Your Aligners
- Aligners should be worn 20–22 hours per day for optimal results.
- Remove them for eating, drinking (except water), and brushing your teeth.
- Clean aligners daily to keep them clear and free of bacteria.
4. Progress Checkups & Final Results
Throughout your treatment, you’ll visit Isles Dental periodically to ensure your teeth are moving according to plan. Once your treatment is complete, we provide a retainer to maintain your new smile.
