Dr. Thomas is a Clear Aligner Provider!

Consider clear aligners to get the beautiful straight teeth you've always wanted — without braces. A complimentary consultation with Dr. Thomas can determine if clear aligners are right for you.

What is it?

Clear aligners use a series of invisible, removable, and comfortable clear slip on trays that no one can tell you're wearing. So, you can smile more during treatment as well as after.

Why would I want it?

Not only are the aligners invisible, they are removable, so you can eat and drink what you want while in treatment. Plus, brushing and flossing are no problem. They are also comfortable, with no metal to cause mouth abrasions during treatment. And no metal and wires usually means you spend less time in your doctor's office getting adjustments.

How does it work?

You wear each set of aligners for about 2-3 weeks, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss. As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will move — little by little, week by week — until they have straightened to the final position Dr. Thomas has prescribed. You'll visit Dr. Thomas about once every 6 weeks to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned. Total treatment time averages 9-15 months and the average number of aligners worn during treatment is between 5 and 15, but both will vary from case to case.
