What are Clear Aligners?

What are Clear Aligners?

At Willowbrook Orthodontics, we offer four advanced clear aligner systems: Invisalign, SPARK™, Angel Aligners, and Oliv Aligners. These custom-made, removable trays gently and gradually move your teeth into ideal alignment. Made from smooth, BPA-free plastic, clear aligners are virtually invisible and provide a comfortable, discreet alternative to traditional braces—while allowing you to eat, brush, and floss with ease.

How Do Clear Aligners Work?

How Do Clear Aligners Work?

Clear aligner treatment uses a series of custom-made, removable trays that gradually shift your teeth into place. Aligners are changed every 1–2 weeks and should be worn 20–22 hours per day for best results. Treatment typically lasts 6–24 months, depending on your needs, with regular check-ins with Dr. Yue to track progress and ensure a proper fit.

All four use a series of custom, removable trays to shift your teeth. They differ in material and technology. Invisalign uses SmartTrack® material with advanced 3D treatment planning. SPARK is known for its clarity and stain resistance. Angel Aligners use a two-phase system built for efficiency. Oliv Aligners add remote progress monitoring for extra comfort. Dr. Yue will recommend the system that matches your case.

Most teens and adults are good candidates, especially for mild to moderate crowding or spacing. Some more complex bite issues respond better to braces or a combination approach. That's exactly what your free consultation is for.
