Answering Questions About Clear Aligners

Would you love to straighten your teeth but have reservations about traditional metal braces?

You may even know someone who was receiving this treatment and you were unaware because it is so discreet. While this treatment is growing in popularity, we still get many questions about clear aligners.

Patients also feel a bit nervous about what to expect and how teeth will feel during treatment. To help ease your mind, we want to explain what you can expect when you first start clear aligner treatment. Continue reading to learn more.
