Clear aligners straighten teeth with a series of thin, removable trays instead of metal braces.
Each set of aligners is shaped to move your teeth a little at a time. You switch to a new set on a regular schedule, and over the course of treatment your teeth shift toward a straighter, more even smile.
Because the trays are clear and removable, most people will not notice you are wearing them, and you take them out to eat, brush, and floss. Clear aligners can help with crowded teeth, gaps, and many bite problems.
If you live in Portage or the Kalamazoo area and are thinking about straightening your teeth, ask Dr. Motson at your next visit. She checks your teeth and gums first, then talks through whether clear aligners are a good fit for you.
