The Clear Aligner Process Explained

Watch this video to learn more about the entirety of the process to straighten crooked teeth using clear braces.

So you might be wondering, how do I get started with clear braces? Well, first of all, you give us a call, and we’d be glad to set you up with a complimentary appointment for that. But the best thing about it is we no longer have to fill your mouth with glop to take an impression. We use our wonderful Emerald S scanner, which makes it quick and easy and totally mess free. And after that, our technicians will determine the length of time for your treatment. So if this sounds good to you, please give our officer call.
