Improve Alignment With Clear Aligners

Clear aligners provide a modern, seamless way to align your smile. You won’t have to face wires, brackets, or disruption to your daily life. Instead, you’ll experience orthodontics that look discreet and feel comfortable throughout every stage of treatment.

At Smile House, we take a diagnostic-first approach to aligner therapy. Using our signature Mouth Mapping®, 3-D scans, and facial imaging, we evaluate your bite, oral posture, airway, and overall facial harmony. From there, our orthodontist builds a digitally guided treatment plan that aligns your smile with your health, your lifestyle, and your long-term goals.

Invest in Your Dental Longevity

Your mouth is the gateway to your overall health. When teeth are misaligned or your bite is imbalanced, the impact goes far beyond your smile.

Poor alignment can lead to:

Jaw tension or TMJ-related discomfort that affects long-term joint health
Difficulty chewing or speaking due to teeth alignment issues
Uneven tooth wear, chipping, or grinding that accelerates damage over time
Increased plaque buildup and gum inflammation caused by hard-to-clean areas
Sleep-disordered breathing, especially when the airway is constricted

At Smile House, orthodontic planning is rooted in diagnostics and designed for total harmony, supporting stronger function, better health, and long-term facial balance. In many cases, it’s the first step in transforming how your smile feels, looks, and performs for life.

Common Questions About Orthodontics

Is Invisalign really invisible?

Almost! Invisalign and other clear aligner systems are made from smooth, transparent material that fits snugly over your teeth. Most people won’t even notice you're wearing them, especially compared to traditional braces. They're easy to remove for meals, brushing, or special events. This makes them especially popular if you or your teen wants a low-profile treatment.

Does it hurt?

Mild pressure is normal, especially when switching to a new set of trays. It means your teeth are shifting! You’ll experience this mild tightness or tenderness for a day or two, especially early in treatment. Unlike braces, clear aligners don’t involve sharp brackets or wires, so they tend to be gentler overall.

Will I need retainers afterward?

Yes, retainers are a crucial final step to maintain your results. After your active treatment ends, we provide a custom retainer to keep your teeth in their new positions. You’ll most likely need to wear retainers every night to preserve your teeth alignment long-term. At Smile House, we’ll guide you through every phase, including retention, with personalized recommendations and follow-ups.

Do you offer orthodontics for kids?

Yes, we do! Smile House offers early orthodontic assessments and growth-based planning for children and teens. By evaluating oral posture, airway development, bite function, and spacing early on, we can often prevent more complex treatments later. In some cases, we recommend phased treatment to guide alignment and create space as adult teeth erupt.
