What are clear aligners
Custom trays that move your teeth precisely
Clear aligners are a series of custom-made, smooth plastic trays worn over your teeth. Each tray applies gentle, controlled pressure to shift specific teeth into position. You change to a new tray every 1-2 weeks as your smile progresses.
At ID Wellness Dental we use digital scanning — no messy impressions — to map your teeth in 3D and plan the exact movements from start to finish before you ever put in a tray.
Conditions we treat
What can clear aligners fix?
Clear aligners treat a wide range of orthodontic issues for teens and adults. Dr. Liya Mohammed will tell you at your consultation whether aligners are the right solution for your specific case.
Crowded teeth
Teeth that overlap or are pushed together due to lack of space.
Gaps between teeth
Spaces between teeth that affect appearance and bite.
Overbite
Upper teeth bite too far over the lower teeth.
Underbite
Lower teeth sit in front of the upper teeth when biting.
Open bite
Upper and lower teeth don't meet when the mouth is closed.
Crossbite
Some upper teeth sit inside the lower teeth when biting.
