Uncomfortable braces used to be the only way to straighten your teeth and restore your oral health. Fortunately, today’s orthodontic options make it possible to get the smile you’ve always wanted and keep your teeth clean and healthy.
The experienced team at Cook Family and Cosmetic Dentistry offers various clear aligner treatments to transform your smile without metal brackets.
Depending on your orthodontic needs, you can choose from Inman aligners, Invisalign®, ClearCorrect®, or Smart Moves®.

Here’s what clear aligner therapy can correct:
- Overbite
- Underbite
- Crossbite
- Open bite
- Crowded teeth
- Gapped teeth
Clear Aligners: What You Need to Know
Clear aligners are custom-made to fit snugly over your teeth, gently moving them into the correct position. Every 1-2 weeks, you’ll switch to a new set until your treatment is complete.
Some of the benefits of clear aligners include the following:
- Comfort — Because they’re made from smooth plastic and made to fit your unique smile, you won’t have to worry about cuts on your tongue, cheeks, or lips from bulky brackets and wires.
- Discretion — Clear aligners are nearly invisible, so no one will know you’re wearing them. You can smile with confidence.
- Removability — When it’s time to eat, brush, or floss, all you have to do is take your aligners out and store them in their case.
- Improved oral health — Since you remove your aligners to care for your teeth and gums, it’s easier to maintain your oral health.
- Fewer visits — In most cases, you’ll enjoy fewer dental visits than if you wore traditional braces. You don’t have to worry about broken brackets or changing wires, so you can spend your valuable time on other things.
