It’s easier than ever to straighten your teeth effectively and discreetly.

You may shudder at the thought of moving your teeth around, especially if you remember your peers in middle school with metal brackets over their teeth or clunky headgear. While braces work well to shift your teeth, they don’t always appeal to adults looking for a solution to crowded teeth.

At Dogwood Dental Spa, we offer clear aligners near Waxhaw as an alternative to braces. These aligners have more benefits than just as a cosmetic dentistry treatment; they also improve oral hygiene. Keep reading to learn about the many benefits of clear aligners.

Discreet

Clear aligners are more discreet than other teeth straightening procedures. We fit your trays specifically to your teeth, so they remain mostly unnoticeable to your peers.

Better Oral Hygiene

Crowded and crooked teeth can prove difficult to maintain, especially if you can’t properly brush them or floss between them. Straightening your teeth makes plaque removal easier, preventing cavities and the need for reconstructive procedures like dental crowns.

Because you can take out clear aligners as needed, they also promote better oral hygiene than braces, which makes brushing and flossing more difficult.

Comfortable

You will wear a new set of clear aligners every week, and each tray gradually and gently shifts your teeth into their correct positions. This process offers a more comfortable alternative to the metal brackets and wires that can cause irritation.

At Dogwood Dental, we use OrthoFX clear aligners, which get personalized for your unique mouth to fit without irritation.

Increased Confidence

With teeth gradually shifting, crowding will reduce, leading to a nicer smile and boosted self-esteem. Throughout this process, which lasts anywhere between 4 months to 1 year, you’ll notice straighter teeth that let you smile more confidently.

Teeth Whitening

If you have concerns about stained teeth, we can discuss the option to use your aligners as whitening trays. We provide the whitening gel, and you can place it directly into the trays to brighten your smile at home.
