Clear Aligners in Broken Arrow

What are Clear Aligners?

Made popular by brands such as Invisalign, clear aligners use custom-made trays to straighten your teeth without metal braces. Digitally printed from transparent material, clear aligners are barely noticeable as they slip over your teeth. This discreet orthodontic option makes it so that you can enjoy straighter teeth and a beautiful smile without anyone noticing braces on your teeth.


Removable aligners position your teeth by applying specific points of pressure across your smile. You simply wear the trays all day—removing them during meals—and change them out as directed. As you transition to each new pair of aligners, your smile gets straighter and closer to the prescribed tooth alignment.

Who Should Consider Clear Aligners?

Clear aligner treatment is perfect for both adults and teens who want to improve their smile, correct crowding or gaps, and straighten crooked teeth. Our clients prefer clear aligners because they’re comfortable and require fewer appointments/adjustments than traditional braces.


Investing in this treatment can also help boost the overall health of your smile, reducing your chances of cavities, gum disease, TMJ disorder, and tooth wear.


Our Broken Arrow clear aligners are ideal for people with busy schedules since we’ll only need to briefly evaluate your bite every six to eight weeks.


Aside from being practically invisible, clear aligners are removable, so you can take them off while eating and brushing your teeth. This allows you to enjoy healthier teeth throughout the entire treatment process, lowering your risk of white spots and plaque buildup. 

The Treatment Process

The clear aligner treatment process starts with a consultation with Dr. Shambille. He will assess your occlusion (how your teeth fit together), and we’ll take scans or molds of your teeth to create a digitally mapped treatment plan. The software allows us to program your tooth movement in a systematic manner, creating custom trays for each phase of the process.


Once your aligners are ready, you will receive them along with instructions about your orthodontic process. You need to wear each tray for 20 to 22 hours per day, changing them every two weeks or as directed by Dr. Shambille. Over time, you will see gradual adjustments in your smile. Once the entire process is complete, we’ll fit you with rigid, clear retainers to maintain your results and prevent relapse.
