CLEAR ALIGNERS
Clear aligners are a way to align the teeth without using braces. Dr. Long uses both Spark and Invisalign brands of clear aligners to straighten teeth, and both offer many benefits when compared to traditional braces. Not every patient is a candidate for clear aligners, but Dr. Long will discuss the pros and cons of this option at your consultation appointment. She will use our Itero Scanner—a digital scanner—to construct a 3D model of your teeth and will personalize your clear aligner treatment specific to your needs. Each aligner is worn for 1 week, and appointments are usually shorter than those for traditional braces.
