Orthodontic Treatment With Clear Aligners in Placerville

Clear aligners, such as Invisalign, are a popular orthodontic treatment option for straightening teeth without traditional braces. These custom-made, removable aligners are designed to gradually move your teeth into their desired positions. Each set of aligners is worn for about two weeks before progressing to the next set in the series, allowing for controlled tooth movement.

Clear Aligners Are For Everyone

Clear aligners are an effective and aesthetic solution for achieving a straighter smile, suitable for both teens and adults.
