We know that life can be pretty stressful sometimes, which is why we want to make your orthodontic treatment as simple and stress-free as possible. This is why High Line Orthodontics offers clear aligner treatment options. Invisalign and Spark Clear Aligners are two amazing options for those who are looking for a convenient, stress-free, discreet orthodontic option.

What are Clear Aligners?

clear aligners

Clear aligners are a type of orthodontic treatment that uses custom-made, removable trays to gradually move teeth into their ideal alignment. We utilize state-of-the-art 3D photo imaging technology to take a 3D image of your teeth and your bite. This is then imported into special software that allows Dr. Pompei to prescribe and plan your tooth movement.

Dr. Pompei may recommend attachments, or tooth-colored composite anchors, which ensure that force is applied to the correct parts of your teeth. Attachments simply add an extra layer of effectiveness to your treatment, but are not always necessary or required.

They can treat any malalignment issue that traditional metal braces can treat, including overbite, underbite and crossbite. 

Benefits of Clear Aligners

Clear aligners offer several benefits that traditional metal braces do not:

  • The aligners are removable. You can still eat all of your favorite foods and play your favorite sports. You can remove your aligners temporarily for prom photos or an important business meeting. You also don’t have added obstacles such as brackets and wires to get around when brushing and flossing your teeth.
  • They are comfortable. You don’t have to worry about poking wires or loose brackets when wearing your clear aligners. They are made from a comfortable, smooth material.
  • They are clear and discreet. If you are worried about the appearance of metal braces, you may want to consider clear aligners. They are clear and discreet, so people may not even notice you are undergoing orthodontic treatment.
