Clear Aligners in Litchfield, CT | Discreet, Comfortable Teeth Straightening

A Virtually Invisible Alternative to Traditional Braces

What Are Clear Aligners?

Clear aligners are custom-made, removable trays designed to gradually straighten teeth without metal brackets or wires. Unlike traditional braces, clear aligners offer a discreet, comfortable, and convenient solution for achieving a beautifully aligned smile. At Litchfield Dental Associates, we provide various clear aligner options to suit your needs and lifestyle.

Who Can Benefit from Clear Aligners?

Clear aligners are ideal for patients who:

  • Want to straighten their teeth without traditional braces.
  • Have mild to moderate crowding, gaps, or bite issues.
  • Prefer a removable orthodontic solution for eating and cleaning.
  • Want a discreet, nearly invisible treatment.
  • Are committed to wearing aligners at least 20-22 hours per day.

How Do Clear Aligners Work?

Clear aligners use gentle, controlled forces to shift teeth gradually. The process includes:

Step 1 : Consultation & 3D Digital Scanning

  • We take digital impressions to create a custom treatment plan.
  • A 3D simulation shows how your teeth will move over time.

Step 2 : Receiving Your Custom Aligners

  • You’ll receive a series of aligners, each designed to move your teeth slightly.
  • Each set is worn for 1-2 weeks before switching to the next.

Step 3 : Progress Monitoring & Adjustments

  • You’ll visit us every 6-8 weeks for checkups and to receive new aligners.
  • Treatment length varies but typically lasts 6-18 months, depending on complexity.

Benefits of Clear Aligners

  • Virtually Invisible - Clear trays blend seamlessly with your teeth.
  • Removable for Eating & Cleaning – No food restrictions.
  • More Comfortable Than Braces – No brackets or wires to irritate gums.
  • Easier to Maintain Oral Hygiene – Brush and floss like normal.
  • Faster Treatment for Some Cases – May work quicker than traditional braces for mild cases.

Clear Aligner Care & Maintenance

To keep your aligners clean and effective:
  • Wear aligners for 20-22 hours per day for best results.
  • Remove before eating and drinking anything but water.
  • Clean aligners daily using clear, antibacterial soap or aligner cleaner.
  • Store aligners in a protective case when not in use.
