What Aligners Are All About

Clear aligners are a modern, discreet orthodontic treatment designed to straighten your teeth without the use of brackets or wires. They work by using a series of custom-made, removable trays that apply gentle, consistent pressure to gradually move your teeth into their ideal positions. Each set of aligners is worn for a short period before moving on to the next, guiding your smile step by step.

Aligners improve both function and aesthetics — helping you bite, chew, and smile with greater confidence.

What to Expect During Treatment

Getting clear aligners at Smilesdotcom Dental Clinic is a smooth, flexible, and well-guided experience designed to help you achieve a beautifully aligned smile with comfort and convenience. From your initial consultation to your final result, we focus on precision, clarity, and consistent support so your treatment feels effortless every step of the way.

Here’s what your aligner journey typically looks like:

Step 1: Comprehensive Consultation and Evaluation

Your journey begins with a detailed orthodontic consultation. During this visit, we assess your teeth, bite, jaw alignment, and overall oral health. Using digital scans and advanced diagnostic tools, we identify alignment concerns, discuss your smile goals, and determine if clear aligners are the right fit for you. This allows us to create a personalized treatment plan that suits your needs and lifestyle.

Step 2: Personalized Treatment Planning

Once you’re approved for aligners, we create a customized digital treatment plan. Using 3D modeling, we map out how each tooth will move from start to finish. You’ll be able to preview your future smile and understand your expected timeline. This ensures your treatment is predictable, efficient, and aligned with your goals.

Step 3: Receiving Your Custom Aligners

When your aligners are ready, you’ll come in to try your first set. Each tray is custom-made to fit your teeth comfortably and guide them with gentle, steady pressure. We’ll show you how to wear them, remove them, and care for them properly. You’ll also receive instructions on when to switch to your next set.

Step 4: Wearing Your Aligners Daily

Aligners must be worn 20–22 hours per day for the best results. They’re removable, so you can take them out to eat, brush, and floss — but should be worn consistently the rest of the time. Each set is typically worn for 1–2 weeks, depending on your treatment plan. As you move through your trays, your teeth will gradually shift into place.

Step 5: Regular Progress Check-ins

Throughout your treatment, you’ll have scheduled check-ins so we can monitor your progress, ensure your teeth are moving correctly, and make any needed adjustments. These visits are quick and comfortable since there are no wires to tighten — just progress to review and new aligners to provide when necessary.

Step 6: Completing Your Treatment

When you reach your final set of aligners, your smile will have transformed according to your treatment plan. We will verify your alignment, ensure your bite feels comfortable, and celebrate your new smile. This is one of the most exciting parts of your journey.

Step 7: Retainers and Long-Term Smile Maintenance

To keep your smile beautifully aligned, you’ll receive custom retainers after treatment. Retainers prevent your teeth from shifting back and help maintain your results for years to come. We’ll give you clear instructions on how often to wear them and schedule follow-ups to support your long-term success.

Maintaining Your Aligners (How to Keep Your Smile Healthy and Treatment on Track)

Your clear aligner treatment at Smilesdotcom Dental Clinic is designed to deliver a smooth, discreet, and effective smile transformation. But achieving the best results depends on consistent daily care. Aligners work best when they’re clean, worn properly, and handled with care. With the right habits, you’ll stay on track and enjoy a healthier, more predictable treatment journey.

Clean Your Aligners Daily

Rinse and gently brush your aligners every morning and night using a soft toothbrush and clear, unscented soap. Avoid hot water — it can warp the trays. Clean aligners stay invisible, odor-free, and effective.

Wear Aligners 20–22 Hours a Day

For aligners to work properly, they must be worn consistently. Only remove them for meals, brushing, and flossing. Wearing them less may delay results and extend your treatment timeline.

Removing Aligners Before Eating or Drinking

Always take out your aligners before eating or drinking anything other than water. Food and drinks can stain or damage the trays. Store them in their protective case to prevent loss or accidental damage.

Switch Trays on Schedule

Follow the treatment schedule provided to you — typically changing aligner sets every 1–2 weeks. Switching too early or too late can affect tooth movement. If a tray feels unusually loose or tight, let us know so we can keep your progress on track.
