Clear Aligners

Clear aligners offer a modern, comfortable way to straighten teeth without traditional metal braces. Made from transparent, medical-grade materials, these custom-designed aligners fit snugly over your teeth and gently guide them into their ideal positions over time. Because they are virtually invisible and removable, patients enjoy a discreet orthodontic solution with the freedom to eat, drink, brush, and floss normally. Backed by advanced digital treatment planning and precision manufacturing, aligner therapy delivers predictable, efficient results tailored to each patient’s smile.

Dr. Whelen provides clear aligner treatment using Solventum from 3M aligners due to their exceptional precision and material quality. These aligners are digitally engineered to produce highly accurate tooth movements, and their attachment system is designed for strength and durability to help movements track reliably throughout treatment. The refined manufacturing process also allows for a higher degree of accuracy with less excess composite around attachments — minimizing areas where plaque can accumulate and reducing the risk of staining. Through advanced digital planning and detailed 3D imaging, Dr. Whelen customizes every step of care to ensure optimal comfort, esthetics, and long-term results.
