We take great pride in providing exceptional dental care in a warm, welcoming environment. We understand the importance of a straight and confident smile, which is why we offer clear aligners as a discreet and effective orthodontic treatment. With clear aligners, you can achieve the smile you’ve always wanted without the need for traditional metal braces.

Benefits of Clear Aligners

Choosing clear aligners at Gower Family Dentistry offers numerous benefits, including:

 

  • Discreet Appearance: Clear aligners are virtually invisible, allowing you to undergo orthodontic treatment without drawing unnecessary attention to your smile. You can confidently work, socialize, and smile throughout your treatment without feeling self-conscious.
  • Removable Convenience: Clear aligners are designed to be removable, giving you the flexibility to enjoy your favorite foods and practice optimal oral hygiene. You can brush and floss your teeth as usual, reducing the risk of tooth decay and gum disease.
  • Enhanced Comfort: The smooth and customized design of clear aligners ensures a comfortable fit. There are no metal brackets or wires to irritate your gums or cheeks, making clear aligners a comfortable orthodontic option.
  • Efficient Treatment: Clear aligners use advanced technology to map out your treatment plan, allowing for predictable and efficient tooth movement. Each set of aligners is designed to gradually shift your teeth into their desired positions, with regular progress checks to monitor your progress.

What are Clear Aligners?

Clear aligners are a modern and innovative approach to orthodontic treatment. These aligners are custom-made, clear plastic trays that gradually and gently move your teeth into their desired positions. Crafted from a smooth and comfortable material, clear aligners are virtually invisible when worn, making them an excellent choice for those seeking a discreet way to straighten their teeth.

What To Expect

Your clear aligner journey at Gower Family Dentistry begins with a comprehensive examination of your dental health. Our skilled dental team will assess your teeth and bite, discuss your treatment goals, and determine if clear aligners are the right choice for you.

If clear aligners are recommended, we will take digital impressions or molds of your teeth to create your custom aligners. These aligners are then manufactured using precise computer technology to ensure an accurate fit and optimal results.

Once your aligners are ready, we will provide you with a series of aligner sets, each to be worn for a specific duration before progressing to the next set. You will be instructed to wear your aligners for the majority of the day, removing them only for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing.

How to Care for Clear Aligners

Caring for your clear aligners is simple and easy. Here are some essential tips:

  • Cleanliness: Rinse your aligners with lukewarm water and gently brush them with a soft toothbrush to remove any food particles or plaque.
  • Avoid Staining: Remove your aligners before consuming colored beverages or foods that may stain them, such as coffee, tea, or berries.
  • Oral Hygiene: Maintain good oral hygiene by brushing your teeth after each meal and flossing daily. This helps prevent plaque buildup and keeps your aligners clean.
  • Aligner Storage: Store your aligners in their designated case when not in use to protect them from damage or loss.
