Many teenagers and adults choose clear aligners because they offer a discreet way to straighten teeth. They may be suitable for correcting mild to moderate crowding, gaps between teeth and some bite concerns. However, suitability depends on your oral health, the position of your teeth and your treatment goals.
During your consultation, your dentist examines your teeth and gums, assesses your bite and takes digital scans or other diagnostic records. This assessment helps determine whether clear aligners are an appropriate treatment option for you or whether another orthodontic treatment may better meet your needs.
Successful treatment also depends on your commitment. Because clear aligners are removable, you need to wear them for the recommended 20 to 22 hours each day. Wearing them consistently helps your teeth move according to your treatment plan.
