A Modern Way to Straighten Your Smile

Clear aligners offer a discreet, comfortable, and effective alternative to traditional braces. At Dentistry for Families & Orthodontics, we provide customized clear aligner therapy for patients in North Las Vegas, Sunrise Manor, and Nellis AFB who want straighter teeth without the inconvenience of metal brackets or wires.

Clear aligners are transparent trays that gently shift your teeth into the ideal position over time. Designed using 3D imaging and made from smooth, medical-grade plastic, they’re removable, nearly invisible, and ideal for adults and teens alike. Whether you're looking to fix minor crowding or more complex alignment issues, clear aligners can help you achieve the confident smile you deserve.

What to Expect from Clear Aligner Treatment

Choosing clear aligners at Dentistry for Families & Orthodontics means receiving personalized care and a streamlined treatment experience. Here's how the process works:

  1. Comprehensive Consultation
    We begin with a full evaluation of your teeth and bite, discussing your goals and determining whether clear aligners are right for you. Our team uses advanced digital scanners for precise 3D imaging — no messy impressions needed.
  2. Custom Aligner Fabrication
    Based on your scans, a custom series of aligner trays is created to guide your teeth into their optimal position gradually.
  3. Wearing Your Aligners
    You’ll wear each set of aligners for about two weeks, 20–22 hours a day, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss. Every set builds on the last to progressively improve your alignment.
  4. Progress Monitoring
    Regular check-ins at our North Las Vegas dental office ensure your treatment stays on track. Most patients complete treatment within 6 to 18 months, depending on complexity.
