What are Clear Aligners?

Straightening Your Smile with Modern Technology

Clear aligners are custom-made, transparent trays that gently and gradually shift your teeth into proper alignment. They’re nearly invisible, removable, and more comfortable than traditional orthodontic options, making them a popular choice for both teens and adults.

At Fortson Dentistry in Lathrup Village, MI, we proudly offer advanced clear aligner treatments to help you achieve a straighter, healthier smile without the inconvenience or visibility of metal brackets and wires.

Why Do I Need Clear Aligners?

Achieving a Confident, Healthier Smile

Crooked, crowded, or misaligned teeth can affect more than just your appearance — they can impact your oral health too. Misalignment can make it harder to clean your teeth properly, increasing your risk for cavities and gum disease. It can also contribute to jaw pain and bite issues.

Clear aligners offer a convenient solution to these problems, allowing you to enhance both the look and function of your smile. At Fortson Dentistry, we create personalized clear aligner plans to correct your dental issues comfortably and effectively.
