You've hidden your smile for the last time! If crooked teeth cause you embarrassment about your smile, but you don't like the idea of wearing braces, you need to know about clear aligners.
Instead of using brackets and wires to move teeth, Dr. Hall uses clear plastic aligners that are smooth, comfortable to wear, and highly discreet, so no one will ever know you're straightening your teeth. Our patients love this innovative orthodontic treatment!
Additional Advantages of Clear Aligners
Here are some additional benefits of choosing clear aligner therapy in Cookeville, TN, for straightening teeth.
- Freedom — You'll have no restrictions on your diet when you straighten your teeth with clear aligners. Unlike with braces, you can enjoy all the foods you love.
- Ease of Care — Brushing and flossing are a breeze with clear aligners. Because aligners are removable, there's no confusion or frustration about navigating around brackets and wires to clean your teeth.
- Comfort — Clear aligners are made of smooth plastic, which most patients find much more comfortable than metal brackets and wires that can poke and tear their gums and soft tissues.
- Discretion — Aligners are clear and snug-fitting, making them virtually invisible.

Most patients can start enjoying their straight teeth in about 10 to 18 months.
