What are Clear Aligners?

Clear aligners are a popular alternative to traditional metal braces. Rather than relying on brackets and wires, clear aligners use a series of clear, customized trays to gradually move teeth into the desired position.


Because they are nearly invisible, clear aligners are a popular choice for adults and teens who are interested in straightening their teeth without drawing attention to their orthodontic treatment. In addition, clear aligners can be removed for eating and brushing, making them more comfortable and convenient than braces.


If you are considering clear aligners, it is important to consult with an orthodontist to ensure that they are the right option for you.

Clear aligners vs. Invisalign

Although both are designed to help you move align your teeth, there are several difference between Invisalign and clear aligners:

  1. Brands

Candid, ClearCorrect and SmileDirect are among the most popular Clear Aligners brands in the market. However, Invisalign remains as the top choice for people looking for clear braces to fix and align their teeth.


2. Price

Clear aligner's price can start as low as $2,000, while Invisalign can start at $5,000.


3. Thickness

Clear braces are thinner than Invisalign and can also be less noticeable than Invisalign. This can also mean that clear braces are more prone to be easily damaged.


4. Comfort

The plastic material use to produce Invisalign has proved to be more comfortable than the one used for Clear Aligners since Invisalign has developed their own easy-to-use plastic.

Benefits of Clear Aligners

Clear aligners offer a number of advantages over traditional braces or other brand of clear braces:


  1. They are more comfortable to wear
  2. They're easier to keep clean, and can be removed for eating and brushing your teeth.
  3. Clear aligners also allow you to see your new smile before you start treatment, so you'll know exactly what to expect.
  4. If you're looking for a discreet way to improve your smile, clear aligners may be the right choice for you.

How much do clear aligners cost?

The cost of clear aligners can vary depending on the severity of the misalignment, the length of treatment, and the brand of clear aligners.


In general, clear aligners are more expensive than traditional braces because they are considered to be a more cosmetic treatment option. The average cost of clear aligners is between $2,000 and $8,000.


However, some insurance plans may cover part of the cost of clear aligners. Additionally, there are a number of financing options available to help make clear aligners more affordable. Treatment with clear aligners typically takes between 12 and 18 months. Therefore, the total cost of clear aligners can be spread out over a period of time.

How fast do teeth move with clear aligners?

The speed of clear aligner treatment varies depending on the individual case.


In general, clear aligners can take anywhere from 10 to 12 weeks to show noticeable results.


If you're interested in clear aligner treatment, it's important to consult with an orthodontist to see if it's right for you.
