What are Clear Aligners?

Clear aligners are removable orthodontic trays designed to gradually move teeth into better alignment. Each set of aligners is slightly adjusted to guide the teeth step by step into their planned position. They are made from clear plastic, making them a more discreet option compared with traditional braces.

Frequently asked questions about Clear Aligners

Do clear aligners work?

Clear aligners are an effective orthodontic treatment for correcting mild to moderate alignment issues. Clear aligners work by applying gentle, controlled pressure that gradually moves teeth into the desired position over time. Each set of aligners is slightly different, guiding the teeth step by step according to a digitally planned treatment sequence.

When worn consistently as instructed by your dentist, clear aligners can successfully improve crowded teeth, gaps, and certain bite issues.
Clear aligner treatment time varies depending on the complexity of the case. Minor alignment issues may be corrected in as little as four to six months, while more complex movements may take 12 to 18 months. Clear aligners are usually worn for 20 to 22 hours per day, and a new set is typically introduced every one to two weeks to continue the planned tooth movement. Your dentist will monitor progress throughout treatment to ensure the teeth are moving correctly.
Clear aligners offer several advantages compared with traditional braces for suitable cases. Clear aligners are nearly invisible, removable, and generally more comfortable because they do not use brackets or wires that can irritate the mouth. They also allow patients to remove the trays for eating, brushing, and flossing, which helps maintain good oral hygiene.

However, traditional braces may still be recommended for complex orthodontic problems that require more precise or extensive tooth movement.
Clear aligners should usually be worn for about 20 to 22 hours per day to achieve the planned tooth movement. They should only be removed for eating, drinking anything other than water, brushing, and flossing. Wearing clear aligners consistently is essential because teeth can begin to shift back if they are left out for long periods. Following the recommended wear time helps ensure treatment progresses as expected.
The cost of clear aligner treatment in Australia can vary depending on the complexity of the case and the length of treatment. In many cases, clear aligners may range from around $5,000 to $12,000 for a comprehensive treatment plan. Minor alignment corrections may cost less, while more complex orthodontic cases may require additional aligners and longer treatment times.

Your dentist will provide a personalised treatment plan and cost estimate after assessing your teeth and bite.
