Clear Aligners in Upland, CA

Straighten your smile without the look and hassle of metal braces. Our clear aligners gently and discreetly shift your teeth into place, fitting easily into your daily routine.

What to Expect from Clear Aligners

Clear aligners are a series of custom, virtually invisible trays that gradually move your teeth into their ideal position, without brackets or wires.

 

We start with a digital scan and custom treatment plan, then provide a series of aligners to wear about 20 to 22 hours a day, switching to a new set every one to two weeks as your smile progresses.

 

Most cases take about 6 to 18 months, depending on how much correction is needed. Many patients love that aligners are removable for eating, brushing, and special occasions.

Frequently Asked Questions About Clear Aligners

Are clear aligners noticeable?

No. Clear aligners are made from smooth, transparent plastic that’s designed to be virtually invisible. Most people won’t even notice you’re wearing them during everyday conversations.

Most patients complete treatment in about 6 to 18 months. Simple cases with minor crowding or spacing can move faster, while more complex bite corrections may take longer to achieve the best result.

Clear aligners are generally comfortable. You may feel mild pressure or tightness for a day or two after switching to a new set, which is a sign they’re working, but it’s nothing like the soreness of traditional braces.

Many dental insurance plans include orthodontic benefits that apply to clear aligners, often covering a portion of the cost. Our front desk can check your specific plan and walk you through your options.
