Who can clear aligners help?
Clear aligners can treat many common orthodontic concerns, from slightly crooked teeth to more noticeable alignment and bite problems.
You or your teen may benefit from clear aligners if you notice:
- Crowded or overlapping teeth
- Gaps or spaces between teeth
- Crooked or misaligned teeth
- An overbite, underbite, crossbite, or open bite
- Teeth that have shifted after previous orthodontic treatment
- A smile you simply don't feel as confident about as you'd like
OrthoFX® aligners are available for teens who have all of their permanent teeth and for adults. Because aligners need to be worn consistently, they're generally a good fit for patients who are ready to take an active role in their treatment.
Not sure if clear aligners are right for you? You don't have to figure that out on your own.
Dr. Snider will evaluate your teeth and bite, listen to your goals, and explain whether clear aligners, braces, or another treatment option makes the most sense for your smile.

Pizza, popcorn, crunchy snacks? With removable clear aligners, they’re still on the menu.
Goop-Free, Fully Digital Impressions
Getting started with OrthoFX doesn't mean biting into trays of messy impression material.
Our digital intraoral scanner creates a detailed 3D model of your teeth in minutes. Dr. Snider uses this digital model to plan your treatment and customize your aligners to your smile.
It's one of the many ways we use advanced technology to make orthodontic treatment more comfortable, precise, and convenient.

Clear Aligners
Clear Aligners or Braces? We'll Help You Decide.
You don't need to know which treatment you need before walking through our doors.
Clear aligners and braces can both create beautiful, healthy smiles. Which one makes the most sense depends on your orthodontic needs, lifestyle, and preferences.
Clear aligners may be a great fit if you want:
- A nearly invisible treatment option
- Removable appliances
- No food restrictions
- Easier brushing and flossing
- Fewer in-office check-ins when remote monitoring is appropriate
Braces may make more sense if:
- Your smile requires certain complex tooth movements
- You don't want to keep track of removable aligners
- Wearing aligners consistently may be challenging
- Dr. Snider determines braces will provide a more appropriate treatment approach for your needs
During your complimentary exam, we'll walk you through your options instead of leaving you to figure it out on your own.
Dr. Snider will explain what she recommends and why, answer your questions, and give you the time and guidance you need to feel confident about your next step.

Benefits of OrthoFX Clear Aligners
Comfortable, Removable Fit
Your OrthoFX aligners are custom-made to fit closely around your teeth and gently guide them toward their planned positions. Because they’re removable, you can continue eating your favorite foods and brush and floss normally throughout treatment.
Remote Monitoring
OrthoFX remote monitoring lets you submit scans of your smile from your smartphone. Dr. Snider and our team review your progress between appointments, helping us make sure your treatment stays on track without requiring an in-office visit for every check-in.
Fewer Trips to Our Office
Advanced technology helps us make every appointment count. OrthoFX patients can typically go about 8–12 weeks between in-office visits, depending on their treatment needs, with remote monitoring helping us keep an eye on your smile in between.
