Invisible, removable, convenient
ClearCorrect aligners are clear, custom-made trays you wear over your teeth. They are nearly invisible, so most people will not even notice you are straightening your smile.
That discretion is a big draw for adults at work, students, and anyone who would rather not announce that they are in treatment. The smooth plastic trays sit close against your teeth without the brackets and wires of metal braces, so there is nothing to poke or irritate your cheeks and lips.
Because they are removable, you can eat what you like and brush and floss normally, no food restrictions and easy cleaning. For the best results, aligners are worn around twenty-two hours a day and taken out only to eat, drink anything other than water, and clean your teeth.
How treatment works
You wear each set of aligners for a couple of weeks before moving to the next, gradually shifting your teeth toward their final position. We will map out your plan and check your progress along the way.
It starts with a consultation and a digital scan or impressions of your teeth, which we use to design your full treatment from start to finish. Each tray is slightly different from the last, applying gentle, steady pressure that guides your teeth a little at a time toward where they belong.
Most patients enjoy a more comfortable experience than traditional braces, with fewer office visits. When you finish, a retainer keeps your new smile in place, since teeth naturally tend to drift back without one.
Is ClearCorrect right for you
Clear aligners are a great fit for many adults and teens with crowding, gaps, or mild to moderate alignment issues. We offer a free consultation to see if they are right for you.
Aligners work best for people who are motivated to wear them consistently, since the trays only move teeth while they are in your mouth. Very complex bite problems are sometimes better suited to braces, and we will give you an honest assessment of what aligners can and cannot achieve for your particular smile.
If you have always wanted a straighter smile but did not want metal braces, this may be your answer. We are also glad to review the cost and any financing or payment options so the path to a straighter smile feels manageable.
Straightening that fits a local lifestyle
Between work, family, and weekends spent enjoying the outdoors, most people do not want their orthodontics to slow them down. ClearCorrect aligners in Albuquerque are a natural fit for busy patients from the northwest side, Corrales, and Rio Rancho, since the trays are removable, nearly invisible, and need fewer office visits than traditional braces.
Dr. B (Boyd Newsome, DMD) maps out your treatment from the start and checks your progress at a relaxed, friendly pace, so you always know how your smile is coming along. Our nearby location makes those periodic checkups quick and easy, helping teens and adults alike stay on track toward straighter teeth without disrupting everyday life.
