Clear Aligners
Benton Harbor, Michigan
Wish you could straighten your smile without a mouth full of metal? Crowded, gapped, or crooked teeth can affect both your confidence and your oral health, and traditional braces aren't your only option anymore.
Michigan Coast Dental proudly offers clear aligners to residents of Benton Harbor looking for a discreet, comfortable path to a straighter smile. Our office is just a short drive away, and with AI-powered ProMonitoring™ technology, achieving your dream smile has never been more convenient.
What Are Clear Aligners?
Clear aligners are a modern, virtually invisible alternative to traditional metal braces. At Michigan Coast Dental, we use the ProMonitoring™ clear aligner system, a series of custom-made trays that gently and gradually shift your teeth into proper alignment using precise digital scans of your smile.
What sets ProMonitoring™ apart is its built-in remote monitoring technology. This lets our team track your progress from home in Benton Harbor, cutting down on office visits while keeping professional support close at hand whenever you need it.
The Clear Aligner Treatment Process
Clear aligner treatment begins with a consultation and digital scans, which our team uses to build a custom plan in collaboration with a licensed orthodontist. Aligners should be worn at least 22 hours a day, removed only for eating, brushing, and flossing.
The ProMonitoring™ app notifies you when it's time to switch to your next tray, and AI-powered analysis reviews your progress with each new set. Once your smile is complete, custom retainers keep your teeth from shifting back, protecting your results for the long-term.
Am I a Good Candidate for Clear Aligners?
Clear aligners suit patients with mild to moderate alignment concerns, including crowded, gapped, or crooked teeth, and bite issues like an underbite, overbite, crossbite, or open bite. If metal braces feel like more than you need, aligners may be the right fit.
Signs you could benefit from treatment go beyond appearance. Difficulty flossing, pain while chewing, and even snoring can point to a misaligned bite. Your consultation will include a full evaluation to confirm whether clear aligners are right for you.
