How Does Clear Aligners Straighten My Teeth?
Instead of brackets and wires, Clear Aligners invisible braces use a series of transparent aligners. Each set of trays is shaped slightly different than the last, gradually guiding your teeth into the desired location. Change them out as directed (usually every two weeks) and enjoy a straighter smile with fewer appointments!

How Quickly Does Teeth Straightening Work?
Everyone’s teeth straightening treatment time is different. If you want fast results, then short term orthodontics (“cosmetic braces”) can straighten your front teeth in as little as 3-6 months. For moderate cases, you might be looking at around 12-18 months. Our Ooralea Dental Clear Aligners dentists will give you an estimated time frame during your consultation.

Our Ooralea dentists will examine your teeth and let you know how long the process will take. We’ll also record a set of digital photographs and scans.
