Looking for a way to straighten your teeth without the look and feel of metal braces? orthodontist in Grand Rapids and Greenville, MI, provides clear aligner therapy for patients who want a more comfortable and aesthetic orthodontic solution. These custom trays are made from transparent plastic and are designed to shift your teeth gradually into alignment—without brackets or wires.
offer a discreet and effective alternative. OurClear aligners apply gentle, controlled pressure to reposition your teeth over time, much like traditional braces, but with a virtually invisible approach. Each aligner is uniquely crafted to fit your mouth based on digital scans or impressions taken at the start of treatment. These scans are used to create a detailed 3D model of your teeth, which guides the design of each aligner in your series.
You’ll wear each set of orthodontic aligners for about one to two weeks, at least 20 to 22 hours a day. As you advance to each new set, your teeth continue to move closer to their ideal placement. Throughout the process, you’ll visit our orthodontist every few weeks to monitor progress and receive your next sets of trays.
