Are your teeth crowded or have noticeable gaps? Are you looking for a more personalized solution than traditional braces? Clear aligners may be the right choice for you, especially if you are an adult or teen who wants unobtrusive orthodontic treatment. Clear aligners are custom, nearly invisible, clear molds to your teeth. They are made of clear plastic and are designed to gradually move your teeth into their ideal position. And the best part? No metal bases or traditional wires.
