A Modern Approach to Straightening Teeth
Clear aligners are a modern orthodontic solution designed to straighten teeth gradually using a series of custom, removable trays that are digitally planned for precise results. Unlike traditional braces, clear aligners are discreet, comfortable, and designed to fit seamlessly into everyday life. They apply gentle, controlled pressure to guide teeth into better alignment over time, without the brackets or wires associated with braces.
Because aligners are removable, patients can continue to eat their favorite foods and maintain normal brushing and flossing habits throughout treatment. Many of our patients even mention, lightheartedly, that clear aligners make them more mindful of snacking since removing the trays, brushing, and flossing before putting them back in becomes part of the routine.
For patients searching for clear aligners in North Hollywood or a trusted Los Angeles clear aligner dentist, this treatment offers an effective way to improve both the appearance and function of the smile. Clear aligners can address spacing, crowding, overlapping teeth, and mild bite issues while maintaining a natural look throughout treatment, making them a popular option for adults and teens alike.
How Clear Aligners Straighten Teeth
Clear aligners straighten teeth by applying gentle, controlled pressure in carefully planned stages using a series of custom-made trays. Each aligner is digitally designed to move specific teeth gradually, allowing for precise and predictable progress throughout treatment. Most clear aligner treatments take between 6 and 18 months, depending on the complexity of your alignment and how consistently the aligners are worn.
For best results, aligners are typically worn 20 to 22 hours per day and removed only for eating, drinking anything other than water, and brushing or flossing. Unlike traditional braces, clear aligners are nearly invisible and fully removable, making them a convenient option for everyday life. This flexibility allows patients to maintain normal oral hygiene, enjoy meals without restrictions, and continue social and professional activities with minimal disruption.
Clear Aligners Help Treat The Following:
- ✔️Crowded or crooked teeth
- ✔️Gaps and spacing issues
- ✔️Teeth that have shifted after braces

Clear Aligner Process
What’s the Difference Invisalign® and other Clear Aligners?
Many patients are familiar with Invisalign, which has become a widely recognized name for clear aligner treatment. In fact, Invisalign is a brand of clear aligners, similar to how people often use brand names to describe a type of product. Today, there are several advanced clear aligner systems available, all designed to straighten teeth using custom, removable trays.
At Toluca Advanced Dentistry, we offer both Invisalign and SureSmile® clear aligners. Rather than recommending one brand for everyone, we select the aligner system based on your specific smile, treatment goals, and clinical needs. The most important factor in clear aligner success isn’t the brand name, but the quality of treatment planning, technology used, and the experience guiding your care.
Why We Use Multiple Clear Aligner Systems
Not all clear aligner systems are the same. Different providers use different materials, digital planning technology, and treatment workflows, which can affect comfort, efficiency, and overall treatment experience. By offering more than one clear aligner system, we are able to choose the option that best matches your smile needs, treatment goals, and lifestyle rather than limiting you to a single approach.
At Toluca Advanced Dentistry, we offer both Invisalign and SureSmile clear aligners. Invisalign is a well-known clear aligner brand, while SureSmile is a newer system that uses advanced digital planning and precise tooth-movement technology. For many patients, SureSmile allows for efficient treatment planning and a more cost-effective option, which is why we often recommend it when it is clinically appropriate. As an added benefit, SureSmile clear aligner treatment includes professional teeth whitening at the end of treatment to help enhance your final results.
During your free consultation, we’ll explain which clear aligner system makes the most sense for your specific case and why. We’ll take a 3D scan of your teeth, show you a digital preview of how your smile may look after treatment, review PPO insurance benefits, and discuss flexible payment options through Cherry and CareCredit. Our goal is to help you understand your options clearly so you can move forward with confidence and without pressure.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I know if clear aligners are right for me?

Clear aligners are designed to fit easily into everyday life. Because they are removable and discreet, most patients are able to continue work, social activities, and travel with minimal disruption.
