Clear Aligners in Cincinnati, OH

Straight teeth are more aesthetically pleasing, healthier, and easier to clean. Clear aligners straighten teeth more discreetly than metal braces and often in less time. If you’re unhappy with the appearance of your smile and long to fix the spacing, alignment, or position of your teeth, consider Clear Aligners from Conover Family Dental in Cincinnati, OH.

What Are Clear Aligners?

A popular alternative to conventional metal braces, clear aligners are an orthodontic treatment we may recommend to straighten your teeth and properly align your bite. Each set of aligners is made from a rigid, clear plastic and shaped to fit snuggly over your top and bottom teeth. Wearing your clear aligners as instructed will shift your teeth into proper alignment over time. At the end of treatment, you will have a healthier, stronger bite and a straight smile.

Clear aligners can correct many cosmetic and oral health issues, including:

  • Gaps
  • Crowding
  • Misalignment
  • Bite problems

How Do Clear Aligners Work?

At the start of treatment, you will receive a series of clear aligners. Your dentist will instruct you on how long to wear each set (typically approx. 10 days) before moving on to the next. For the best possible results, you will need to wear the aligners day and night, a minimum of 22 hours a day. As treatment progresses, you will witness your teeth gradually shifting into alignment. Your dentist will ask you to come in periodically to check on your treatment progress and address any concerns you may have. As long as you wear your aligners as directed, your treatment should go exactly as planned.
