How do clear aligners work?

Clear aligners are created from molds or 3D scans of your teeth. Using specialized software, your dentist plans the necessary tooth movements and designs a series of aligners, each representing a step in your treatment. These aligners apply gentle pressure to gradually shift your teeth into place.

Typically, you’ll change aligners every two weeks, with the total number needed depending on the amount of movement required. For optimal results, it’s recommended to wear the aligners for 20-22 hours a day, removing them only for eating or drinking.
