CLEAR ALIGNERS

Clear aligners planned for you by Dr. Godley

Aligners are a system of transparent, clear trays that move your teeth according to your orthodontist’s prescription, without the use of braces. Clear aligners offer the benefit of removing them when eating, brushing, and flossing, making oral hygiene and daily routines much easier. Aligners are a modern, discreet solution for achieving a beautifully aligned smile. These virtually invisible aligners gently and gradually shift your teeth into their desired position. At Godley Family Orthodontics, our clear aligner systems are custom-made for your unique smile.

CLEAR ALIGNER TREATMENT

With Dr. Godley’s planning, even complex cases can be treated with clear aligners.
With an orthodontist‘s expertise, clear aligners can be engineered to treat a variety of malocclusions.  This includes:
  • Crowding
  • Misaligned bite
  • Spacing​ or gaps
  • Overjet
  • Overbite
  • Underbite
  • Missing teeth
Visit our Zionsville, IN office to see a simulation of your treatment and discuss how our clear aligner orthodontist, Dr. Godley, can treat your bite with aligners.

THE ALIGNER PROCESS

How Do Clear Aligners Work? 
Like braces, clear aligners are designed to move your teeth a little at a time.
Step 1
Our orthodontic team takes a digital scan of your teeth and bite. 
Step 2
Dr. Godley strategically plans and engineers your treatment. 
Step 3
You will receive your series of trays to gradually shift your teeth into the proper position.
To be successful, it is important that the aligners are worn for at least 18 to 20 hours per day, removing them to eat or drink.  Your orthodontist will let you know how long to wear each set of aligners. 

Phase I Clear Aligners

A modern orthodontic option for kids

During her exam at Godley Family Orthodontics in Zionsville, IN, a young girl points to her teeth as the dentist explains clear aligners.

Early Phase I Aligners are a solution designed for children. With Dr. Godley’s expertise, they can be used to treat a broad range of dental issues when kids are growing.  This includes:

  • Narrow arches
  • Crossbite
  • Crowding
  • Spacing
  • Overbite
  • Protrusion

Dr. Godley designs Phase I Aligners to gradually correct issues and guide your child’s growing teeth and jaws.  This can address existing issues and help prevent serious problems in the future.

Clear Aligners for Teens

Focused on your teen’s needs

Clear aligners can be a great option for teenage patients because they can easily fit into their lifestyle and busy school schedule. Aligners allow your teen to enjoy their favorite foods and carry on with their regular routines.

Clear aligners are less likely to interfere with your teen’s speech or favorite hobbies, such as musical instruments or sports.  The aligners can also be taken out for short periods of time for important events, such as homecoming, prom, or senior pictures.  The nearly invisible aligners allow your teen to smile freely and confidently!
