What Are Clear Braces?

Clear braces, also called clear aligners, are a modern alternative to traditional metal braces. They:

Straighten teeth gradually using custom-fitted, transparent trays.

Are nearly invisible, so most people won’t notice them.

Can be removed for meals, brushing, and special occasions.

Offer a comfortable, smooth design that reduces irritation.
