What are clear aligners?
Wish you could straighten your teeth without hunky metal wires and brackets? Now you can! Clear aligner therapy involves fabricating custom-made removable plastic aligners for you to wear over your teeth for 22 hours a day.
They exert gentle but firm pressure on your teeth to gradually shift them throughout your treatment. These comfortable aligners allow you to experience more freedom and flexibility in your everyday life.
You will change to a new aligner every 2 weeks, slowly shifting your teeth into the correct alignment with each tray you wear. The average treatment time is 12 to 18 months. Contact us at Auburn Hills Family Dentistry today to schedule a consultation with Dr. Josh Haycock.

While those with severe malocclusions and teeth that need to be rotated past 20 degrees may be a better candidate for braces, we encourage you to come in for a consultation so we can evaluate your teeth and determine if clear aligner therapy is right for you.

Clear aligner therapy is also much more comfortable because the materials are plastic rather than metal. You don’t have to worry about brackets breaking and damaging your gums or causing oral injuries. They cause less gum soreness as the
