Dreaming of having a straighter smile but hesitant about wearing metal braces? Our team at Safari Family Dental and Orthodontics has a more discreet solution for you! We offer clear aligners in Aldine, Gulf Fwy, Richmond and Meyerland that can straighten your teeth without compromising the appearance of your smile. Our skilled expert, Dr. Momin, will carefully evaluate your orthodontic concerns to determine if clear aligners are the right choice for you.
Clear aligner treatment uses a series of custom-made, transparent trays that gradually reposition teeth, correcting their alignment. Each set of aligners is designed according to your unique anatomy so that it fits comfortably over your teeth and provides the best results.
Thanks to their nearly invisible appearance, these aligners are a popular choice among teens and adults who want a discreet option to achieve a straighter smile. Whether you have small gaps between teeth or more complex orthodontic issues, our specialist can create a personalized plan to meet your goals.
Our customized clear aligners offer a metal-free alternative to braces with several other benefits, including:
The procedure starts with an initial evaluation, during which we will assess your teeth and bite to determine whether you can benefit from clear aligners. If you are a good candidate, we will take 3D digital impressions of your teeth to design your customized aligner trays.
You will have to wear each aligner set for about 20 to 22 hours a day, changing to the next set every one to two weeks. Throughout your treatment, we will schedule dental visits to track the treatment progress and make any necessary adjustments. When your treatment is complete, we will provide custom retainers to keep your teeth secure in their new alignment.
Clear aligners are effective for various orthodontic issues, including crowded teeth, gaps, overbites, underbites, crossbites, and deep bites.
Treatment time varies depending on your orthodontic issues, but most patients require 12 to 18 months for effective results.
You can brush them gently using a soft toothbrush to clean plaque and debris. Our dentist may also suggest using a special cleaning solution to maintain them.
With our customized clear aligners, it is now easier than ever to achieve a gorgeous smile. Call us today to book an appointment.
