Straighten Your Teeth Discretely with Clear Braces in Cache Valley
In the past, metal braces were the standard for straightening teeth. While effective, they are also uncomfortable, inconvenient, and hard to hide. Between food restrictions, painful wires, and frequent adjustments, it’s no wonder many adults and teens in the Logan, UT and Cache Valley area avoid them altogether.
That’s why more and more Logan, UT patients are turning to clear aligners. This virtually invisible and removable treatment straightens your teeth without brackets or wires. Dr. Blake Cameron, Dr. Jeff Wegener, and Dr. Derek Rickson at Aspen Dental of Cache Valley create treatment plans customized for your for comfort, convenience, and deliver real results. Clear aligners often work faster than traditional braces, with smooth trays that gently shift your teeth in carefully planned stages. You get the smile you want without the uncomfortable look and feel of metal in your mouth.
What is Clear Aligners Process Like?
Clear braces use a series of custom-fitted plastic trays to gently shift your teeth into place. Here’s how the process works from start to finish:
- Step 1: Consultation & Smile Plan — We’ll talk about your smile goals and take a look at your teeth. If you’re a good candidate for clear braces, we’ll schedule a digital scan and fitting.
- Step 2: Digital 3D Scan — Using our advanced digital scanner, we’ll create a 3D model of your teeth. No goopy impressions necessary. You’ll also get a sneak peek of how your smile will look at the end of treatment.
- Step 3: Wear Your Clear Aligners — You’ll wear each set of clear aligner trays for about 1-2 weeks, 20-22 hours a day. Take them out when you eat, drink, brush, and floss. Your aligners will come with a convenient travel case so you can store them safely while doing so.
- Step 4: Come By for Periodic Progress Check-ins — Every 6-8 weeks, you’ll stop by our office for a quick check-in. We’ll make sure everything’s on track, answer your questions, and make any needed tweaks.
