Clear Aligners Q&A

What are clear aligners?

Clear aligners are transparent, removable trays designed to gradually shift your teeth into proper alignment. Each set of aligners is custom-crafted to fit snugly over your teeth, applying gentle, consistent pressure. Unlike braces, clear aligners have no wires or brackets, offering a comfortable and virtually invisible way to straighten your smile.

Made from smooth, BPA-free plastic, clear aligners are easy to wear and remove, allowing you to maintain your regular brushing, flossing, and eating habits with minimal disruption. Because they’re removable, you can enjoy your favorite foods without worrying about restrictions or damage to your orthodontic device.

Clear aligners also make it easier to maintain clean teeth and gums, reducing your risk of cavities and plaque buildup during treatment. Many patients notice improvements in their smile within just a few months, which boosts both their confidence and oral health.

What issues can clear aligners address?

Clear aligners can correct a wide range of orthodontic concerns, including:

Crooked or crowded teeth
Gaps between teeth
Overbites and underbites
Crossbites
Open bites
Mild to moderate tooth misalignment

They’re ideal for teens and adults seeking an effective yet discreet orthodontic option.

What is the process for getting clear aligners?

Your treatment begins with a comprehensive dental exam and digital scan to assess your teeth and bite. Dr. George utilizes advanced imaging to create a personalized treatment plan, illustrating how your smile will evolve over time.

To ensure the best possible results, Dr. George adds Pro Monitoring to your treatment plan. This advanced tracking system enables precise, real-time oversight of your progress between visits, helping you identify adjustments early and keep your smile transformation on schedule.

Once your custom aligners are ready, you’ll wear each set for about one to two weeks before switching to the next in the series. You’ll need to wear your aligners for 20–22 hours a day, removing them only for meals, brushing, and flossing.

Regular check-ins at George Family Dental Care ensure your progress is on track, supported by Pro Monitoring updates that help Dr. George make data-driven refinements for optimal results. Once your treatment is complete, Dr. George may provide a custom retainer to help maintain your beautiful results and keep your teeth perfectly aligned for years to come.

How long does treatment take?

Most clear aligner treatments take 6–18 months, depending on the complexity of your case. Dr. George will discuss your estimated timeline during your consultation.

With clear aligners and Pro Monitoring, you can achieve a straighter, healthier smile comfortably and discreetly. Schedule your consultation at George Family Dental Care today by calling the office or booking online.
