What Are Clear Aligners?

Clear aligners are a series of removable, transparent trays that gently move your teeth over time. Unlike fixed brackets or wires, aligners can be taken out when eating or brushing, making them one of the most convenient orthodontic treatments available.

Clear aligners are often recommended for:

  • Mild to moderate crowding
  • Small gaps between teeth
  • Patients who previously had braces and need minor corrections
  • Adults or teens who want a more affordable, aesthetic alternative to braces

For patients needing more advanced corrections, we also provide Invisalign, braces, and 6-Month Smiles.

Treatment Process

Your clear aligner journey at Schnierow Dental Care includes:

  1. Initial Consultation – We evaluate your teeth and bite to determine candidacy.
  2. Digital Impressions – A scan of your teeth is used to create custom aligners.
  3. Wearing Your Aligners – Each set is worn for 1–2 weeks before advancing to the next.
  4. Regular Monitoring – Progress checkups ensure your teeth are moving as planned.
  5. Retention – After treatment, a retainer helps maintain your results long-term.

Benefits of Clear Aligners

Patients love clear aligners for many reasons:

  • Nearly invisible appearance
  • Removable trays for easy oral hygiene
  • No dietary restrictions
  • Comfortable fit without metal wires
  • Effective for minor to moderate alignment needs

Clear Aligners vs. Invisalign

While both treatments use transparent trays, there are key differences:

  • Invisalign uses advanced SmartTrack material and is ideal for more complex cases.
  • Clear Aligners are often more budget-friendly and work best for mild misalignment.

Our team will help you decide whether Invisalign or clear aligners are the best option based on your smile goals.
