Clear Aligners
What Are Clear Aligners?
Clear aligners are cutting-edge orthodontic treatment that offers a discreet and convenient way to straighten your teeth without the need for traditional metal braces. These clear aligners, often referred to as "teeth aligners" or "clear aligners," are custom-made to fit your teeth, making them virtually invisible when worn.
Clear aligners are a fantastic option for individuals who want to improve their smile without the aesthetic concerns associated with traditional braces. If you're in Auckland, clear aligners are readily available at Auckland Family Dental.
How Do Clear Aligners Work?
Clear aligners work by using transparent (almost invisible) aligners that are changed every 1 to 2 weeks for a new set of aligners.
​
Each clear aligner gradually moves your teeth into your desired position. When you reach your final aligner, your teeth will have moved into the ideal position pre-designed by you and your dentist.
Designing
During the design stage, your dentist will use a high-tech digital system to analyze your smile and digitally move your teeth in the desired alignment. By doing this, the patient is able to see and customize the end results to match the patient’s needs.
Number of Aligners
A patient can have anywhere from 10 to 40 aligners, depending on their case. Clear aligners need to be worn full time (day & night) to achieve best results, but can be removed for eating, brushing and flossing. Because of how discreet the treatment is, it’s no wonder it is a popular choice for many!

Clear Aligners Advantages
Aesthetic Appeal
One of the most significant benefits of Invisalign is its discreet appearance. The clear aligners are virtually invisible, allowing you to maintain your confidence and smile without feeling self-conscious about metal braces.
Comfortable Fit
Invisalign aligners are made from smooth, comfortable plastic. Unlike traditional braces, there are no wires or brackets that can cause irritation or discomfort in your mouth.
Removable
Invisalign aligners are removable, which means you can take them out for eating, brushing, and flossing. This makes maintaining oral hygiene during treatment much easier.
Effective Results
Invisalign effectively treats a wide range of orthodontic issues, including crowded teeth, gaps, overbites, underbites, and more. It provides consistent, predictable results when worn as instructed.
No Dietary Restrictions
With Invisalign, you can enjoy your favorite foods without worrying about damage to your aligners. Simply remove them while eating and put them back in afterward.
