Clear Aligners in Phoenix, AZ

What Are Clear Aligners?

Clear aligners are custom-made, removable trays designed to gradually shift your teeth into ideal alignment. Made of smooth, BPA-free plastic, they fit snugly over your teeth and are barely noticeable.

Unlike metal braces, clear aligners are removable, allowing you to:

• Eat your favorite foods without restrictions
  
• Brush and floss with ease
  
• Avoid irritation from wires or brackets
  
• Feel confident in social or professional settings
  

Who Is a Good Candidate for Clear Aligners?

Clear aligners are an excellent solution for teens and adults dealing with:

• Crowded or crooked teeth
  
• Gaps or spacing between teeth
  
• Overbite, underbite, or crossbite
  
• Relapse after previous orthodontic treatment
  

For more complex orthodontic needs, we may recommend braces or other solutions under our Orthodontics offerings.

How the Clear Aligner Process Works

Step 1: Personalized Smile Assessment

During your consultation, we’ll use digital scans and 3D imaging to map out your tooth movements and create a custom treatment plan. Visit our Cosmetic Smile Assessment page to learn more about how we evaluate your smile needs.

Step 2: Custom Aligner Fabrication

A series of clear trays is made to gradually shift your teeth. You’ll wear each set for 1–2 weeks, 20–22 hours a day.

Step 3: Regular Check-Ins

You'll visit us every 6–8 weeks at our Phoenix dental office to ensure progress is on track.

Step 4: Enjoy Your New Smile

Once complete, we’ll provide retainers to help you maintain your results.
