If you’ve been dreaming of a straighter smile without the look or feel of traditional braces, clear aligners may be the perfect solution. At Central Virginia Family Dentistry in Amherst, we offer advanced clear aligner treatment to gently and effectively move your teeth into proper alignment – all with transparent, removable trays that fit seamlessly into your lifestyle.
What Are Clear Aligners?
Clear aligners are custom-made, transparent trays designed to gradually shift your teeth into place. Each set of aligners is worn for about two weeks before switching to the next in the series, guiding your smile step by step toward ideal alignment.
Because they’re virtually invisible and can be removed for meals, brushing, and flossing, clear aligners are a comfortable and convenient alternative to metal braces.
Benefits of Clear Aligners
Clear aligners offer discreet, comfortable orthodontic treatment for a confident smile. Many of our patients choose clear aligner therapy for benefits like:
- Discreet treatment. Straighten your teeth without noticeable wires or brackets.
- Comfortable aligners. Smooth plastic trays minimize irritation to your cheeks and gums.
- Convenient care. Remove your aligners to eat, drink, and clean your teeth easily.
- Effective treatment. Clear aligners treat teeth crowding, uneven spacing, and many bite alignment issues.
The Clear Aligner Process
Your treatment begins with a comprehensive exam and digital impressions to create your personalized treatment plan. Using advanced technology, we’ll map out each stage of movement and provide you with a preview of your expected results.
Once your aligners are ready, you’ll wear them for 20–22 hours each day, removing them only for eating and brushing. Our team will monitor your progress with routine check-ins to ensure your smile is shifting exactly as planned.
Is Clear Aligner Treatment Right for You?
Clear aligners are an excellent choice for teens and adults who want a more discreet orthodontic option. During your consultation, our dentists will assess your teeth and bite to determine if clear aligners are the right fit for your goals.
