Aligners are orthodontic devices that are used to straighten teeth and treat jaw and bite alignment abnormalities. They are a more invisible and removable choice for orthodontic treatment than traditional braces. Aligners, like traditional braces, work by applying mild pressure to progressively straighten teeth over time. Each aligner directs tooth movement, and teeth move around 0. 2 mm to 0. 3 mm with each new pair.

Teeth aligners work by applying controlled and gradual pressure to shift teeth into their desired position. A series of custom made aligners are created, each slightly different from the previous one. As you progress through the series, your teeth gradually moved to desired alignment. Aligners are usually worn for about 20-22 hours a day and removable, allowing you to eat, brush, and floss normally.

Aligners are tray-like dental appliances that are nearly invisible and used to straighten teeth that are misaligned. They apply gentle, steady pressure to reposition the teeth properly. Three-dimensional images of the teeth and jaws are used to create a set of aligners. Each aligner tray gently presses against the teeth. As a result, the physical positions of the teeth alter and improve. After each movement is completed by an aligner, the patient will proceed to the next aligner tray, which will bring further movements. This process is repeated until the teeth are aligned and the smile is improved.
