What Are Clear Aligners?
Clear aligners are custom-made, removable trays that gradually shift your teeth into alignment over time. They’re made of a smooth, nearly invisible thermoplastic and are worn for 20–22 hours a day, removed only for eating, brushing, and flossing.
Clear aligners can be used to correct:
- Crooked or crowded teeth
- Gaps and spacing issues
- Overbites, underbites, and crossbites
- Relapse from previous orthodontic treatment
- Mild to moderate misalignment for aesthetic improvement
Lucid Dentistry offers both name-brand Invisalign and other advanced aligner systems based on your needs, budget, and goals.
Why Patients Choose Clear Aligners
- Discreet appearance—no metal wires or brackets
- Comfortable fit—smooth, custom-made trays
- Removable for meals and hygiene
- Shorter appointments with no wire adjustments
- Digital treatment planning ensures predictable results
Clear aligners are also a great way to prepare your smile for a makeover or cosmetic enhancements like veneers.

- Tooth alignment and spacing
- Age and lifestyle
- Jaw position and bite
- Oral hygiene habits
- Treatment goals
