Clear & Simple Orthodontics
Our office uses Invisalign clear aligners. These transparent trays fit over your teeth and push them into new positions. Unlike traditional braces, they don't use brackets or wires.
The biggest advantage of clear aligners is that you can take them out — they're not anchored to your teeth like braces. You can get the orthodontic treatment you deserve while keeping anyone else from knowing about it.
Value You Can See & Feel
Clear aligners offer a particular set of perks that traditional braces can't match. Let's dive into what makes them a great choice:
Subtle Treatment
Invisalign clear aligners are made from see-through, comfortable plastic. They fit over your teeth without anyone noticing, letting you keep your smile under wraps until it's ready for the spotlight.
Freedom & Convenience
Life's busy, and your orthodontic treatment shouldn’t keep you from slowing down. Clear aligners can be removed whenever you need, so you can enjoy your favorite foods, brush, and floss easily, and live without the restrictions of traditional braces.
Customized Comfort
Crafted from BPA-free, smooth plastic, each aligner is designed for your mouth's unique shape. They're snug and comfortable, so much so that many patients barely notice they're wearing them.
Precision & Personalization
At New Braunfels Orthodontic Associates, we use advanced 3D technology to map out every step of your treatment. Each aligner is tailored to guide your teeth precisely where they need to go, so you'll see accurate, impressive results
