At Cranford Orthodontics, we offer advanced clear aligner systems to help patients achieve a healthier, more confident smile without the brackets and wires of traditional braces.

What Are Clear Aligners?

Clear aligners are custom-made, transparent trays that gradually move your teeth into their ideal position. Each set is worn for about one to two weeks before moving on to the next in the series. The result is a straighter smile without the need for metal hardware.

Benefits of Clear Aligners:

  • Nearly invisible appearance
  • Removable for eating, brushing, and flossing
  • No dietary restrictions
  • Fewer office visits
  • Comfortable, custom fit

Clear aligners are ideal for busy professionals, students, and adults who want a subtle treatment option that fits easily into their daily routine.

Are Clear Aligners Right for You?

Clear aligners can treat a wide range of orthodontic issues, including:

  • Mild to moderate crowding
  • Gaps or spacing
  • Minor bite misalignments
  • Relapse after previous orthodontic treatment

During your consultation, we’ll determine whether clear aligners or an alternative like ClearCorrect is best suited for your smile goals.
