Clear Aligner Therapy in New Westminster
Clear Aligner Therapy
Most people want straighter teeth, but not everyone wants brackets and wires. Clear aligners do the same job — slowly shifting teeth into place — without the look or feel of traditional braces.
Each set of trays is made from smooth, transparent plastic that fits snugly over your teeth. You wear them for most of the day, switching to a new set every week or two as the teeth move. They’re easy to take out for meals or brushing, so you don’t have to change much about your routine.
At our New Westminster clinic, aligner treatment starts with a scan — no molds, no mess. We plan out the movement digitally so you can see a preview of how your smile will change before you begin. Every few weeks, we check progress, make adjustments if needed, and answer any questions along the way.
Clear aligners can correct mild to moderate crowding, small gaps, and even certain bite issues. The process is slower than braces for some cases, but for most people, the comfort and convenience make it worth it.
You’ll need to wear the aligners 20 to 22 hours a day for them to work properly. That means sleeping in them and only removing them for eating or cleaning. It takes a bit of commitment, but most patients adjust quickly.
When treatment’s done, we’ll make a set of retainers to help keep everything where it belongs. Teeth can drift back if left on their own, so retainers are part of the long-term plan.
Clear aligner therapy blends into daily life. It’s simple, quiet, and steady — a way to change your smile without changing your routine.
