Health Benefits:
-
Improved Oral Health: Clear aligners provide more than just cosmetic benefits – they also promote optimal oral health by correcting misalignments, overcrowding, and bite issues. By aligning your teeth properly, clear aligners can help reduce the risk of gum disease, tooth decay, and other dental problems associated with crooked or misaligned teeth.
-
Easier Oral Hygiene: Unlike traditional braces, which can make brushing and flossing a challenge, clear aligners are removable, allowing you to maintain excellent oral hygiene throughout your treatment. Simply remove your aligners before brushing and flossing as usual, then pop them back in once you're done – it's that easy!
-
Reduced Risk of Dental Damage: Clear aligners are made from smooth, comfortable materials that minimize the risk of irritation and dental damage often associated with traditional braces. With clear aligners, you can say goodbye to uncomfortable wires and brackets and hello to a more comfortable orthodontic experience.
Aesthetic Benefits:
-
Discreet Treatment: Clear aligners are virtually invisible when worn, allowing you to straighten your teeth discreetly without drawing attention to your orthodontic treatment. Whether you're at work, school, or social events, you can smile with confidence knowing that your aligners are virtually undetectable to others.
-
Enhanced Facial Aesthetics: By correcting misalignments and bite issues, clear aligners can improve the overall appearance of your smile and facial aesthetics. A properly aligned smile can harmonize your facial features, enhance your smile symmetry, and boost your confidence in both professional and social settings.
-
Customized Treatment: Clear aligners are custom-designed to fit your unique dental anatomy and treatment goals, ensuring optimal comfort, effectiveness, and results. Our experienced dental team will create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs, ensuring that you achieve the smile of your dreams safely and efficiently.

How Clear Aligners Work?
Curious about how SureSmile® or Invisalign® clear aligners straighten your teeth? The process is simple, comfortable, and designed around your lifestyle.
Clear aligners use a series of custom-made, transparent trays that fit snugly over your teeth. Each set of aligners is slightly different, gently guiding your teeth into their ideal position over time. These trays apply controlled pressure, moving teeth through a natural process called bone remodeling.
What to Expect During Treatment?
-
Wearing Your Aligners – Each set is typically worn for 2 weeks before moving to the next in the series. For the best results, aligners should be worn 20–22 hours per day, only removed for eating, drinking (anything other than water), brushing, and flossing.
-
Eating & Cleaning – Because aligners are removable, you can enjoy your favorite meals and maintain excellent oral hygiene without the hassle of brackets and wires.
-
Attachments & IPR – To improve tooth movement, we may use small, tooth-colored attachments (tiny “buttons” bonded to teeth) or perform interproximal reduction (IPR), a gentle reshaping of certain teeth to create space.
-
Retention Phase – After completing treatment, you’ll receive a custom retainer to keep your teeth in place. This step is essential, since teeth naturally try to shift without retention.
How to Care for Your Clear Aligners
Proper care of your aligners is essential for keeping your SureSmile® (or Invisalign®) treatment on track and your smile healthy. Follow these simple tips:
Daily Care Guidelines:
-
Remove aligners during meals and drinks – Only plain water is safe to sip with aligners in. Always take them out when eating or drinking anything else.
-
Store aligners safely – Keep them in their protective case whenever they’re not in your mouth. Avoid wrapping them in a napkin, which can easily get thrown away.
-
Clean with each brushing – Rinse your aligners with room-temperature water and gently brush them using a soft toothbrush every time you brush your teeth.
-
Avoid heat – Hot water, dishwashers, or leaving aligners on warm surfaces can warp the plastic and ruin the fit.
-
Keep away from pets – Dogs and cats love chewing on aligners, so always store them securely.
-
Report issues quickly – If your aligners are lost, cracked, or damaged, contact Stonebrook Dental right away so we can help you stay on schedule.
💡 Pro Tip:
The better you care for your aligners, the clearer, fresher, and more comfortable they’ll be throughout treatment.
