Why Choose Clear Aligners?
Clear aligners offer unmatched flexibility and aesthetics for patients seeking a convenient orthodontic solution. Unlike metal braces, these smooth, custom-fit trays are virtually invisible, allowing you to straighten your teeth without anyone noticing. They’re also removable, making it easy to enjoy your favorite foods and maintain proper oral hygiene throughout treatment.
With Dr. Patrick Brown and our experienced team guiding your progress, you’ll receive a treatment plan tailored to your unique needs and goals. Our advanced 3D imaging technology ensures precision at every step, resulting in faster, more predictable results.
What to Expect During Treatment
Your clear aligner journey begins with a detailed consultation, where Dr. Brown will evaluate your smile and discuss your goals. Using advanced digital scans, we’ll design a personalized treatment plan showing exactly how your teeth will shift over time. Once your aligners are ready, you’ll wear them for about 20–22 hours per day, switching to a new set every few weeks as your teeth gradually move into position.
Most patients complete treatment within 6–18 months, depending on their needs. You’ll visit our Carolina Beach office for periodic check-ins to ensure your progress stays on track.
Who Clear Aligners Are For?
Clear aligners are ideal for teens and adults looking to correct mild to moderate alignment issues such as gaps, crowding, or bite concerns. They’re perfect for busy professionals or anyone who wants to improve their smile discreetly and comfortably.
If you’ve previously avoided orthodontic treatment because of the appearance or maintenance of braces, clear aligners provide a modern, low-stress alternative designed to fit seamlessly into your lifestyle.
Financing and Insurance Options
We believe a confident smile should be within everyone’s reach. Beachside Family Dentistry accepts most major insurance plans and offers flexible financing options to make treatment affordable. Our team will help you navigate coverage details and find a payment plan that fits your budget.
