How it Works?
How it Works?
Aligners work by gently moving your teeth into the right position over time. Here's a simpler breakdown:
1.Creating a Custom Plan
Your dentist will start by taking a 3D scan or impression of your teeth to understand their current alignment. This helps in designing a personalized treatment plan.
2. Making the Aligners
Using the scan, a set of clear, custom-fitted aligners is created. Each aligner is designed to make small, gradual changes to your teeth's position.
3. Wearing the Aligners
You'll wear each set of aligners for about 1-2 weeks, keeping them on for most of the day (around 20-22 hours). You'll only take them out when eating, drinking anything other than water, and cleaning your teeth.
4. Switching to New Aligners
Every 1-2 weeks, you’ll switch to the next set of aligners. Each new set will continue to move your teeth a little closer to the final, desired position.
5. Progress Check-Ups
Periodically, you’ll visit your dentist to monitor the progress and ensure your teeth are moving correctly according to the plan.
6. Achieving Your New Smile
Once you’ve gone through all your aligners, your teeth should be perfectly aligned. To maintain the results, you might be given a retainer to wear at night, which keeps your teeth in place.

The duration of aligner treatment varies depending on the complexity of the case, but most patients can expect to wear aligners for 6 to 18 months. Your dentist will provide a personalized treatment plan that outlines the expected timeline.
Yes, aligners are generally more comfortable than traditional braces. They are smooth and custom-fitted, reducing the likelihood of irritation in the mouth. However, some patients may experience slight discomfort when switching to a new set of aligners, which usually subsides within a few days.
Aligners should be removed while eating or drinking anything other than water. This helps prevent damage to the aligners and avoids staining. You can enjoy all your favorite foods without restrictions once the aligners are removed.
To maintain your aligners, clean them regularly with a soft toothbrush and clear, non-abrasive soap or a special aligner cleaner. Avoid using hot water as it can warp the plastic. Always store your aligners in their case when not in use to protect them from damage and loss.
