Modern Orthodontic Innovation

Clear aligners represent the cutting edge of orthodontic treatment, offering a virtually invisible alternative to traditional braces. At Dr. Ora Canter Orthodontics, we provide custom-designed clear aligner therapy that gradually shifts your teeth into their ideal positions through a series of precisely crafted, removable trays. These transparent aligners fit snugly over your teeth and apply gentle, consistent pressure to achieve beautiful results without the appearance of metal braces.

Dr. Canter's elite training at Stony Brook University's selective orthodontic program and her decade-plus experience transforming smiles in Queens ensures that your clear aligner treatment plan is expertly designed. Patients appreciate the freedom to remove aligners for eating, brushing, and special occasions, as well as the comfort they provide compared to traditional options. Ideal for teens and adults with mild to moderate alignment issues, clear aligners offer a discreet solution for achieving the confident smile you deserve with minimal disruption to your daily life.

The Clear Aligner Process

Your journey to a straighter smile begins with a comprehensive consultation where Dr. Canter evaluates your orthodontic needs and determines if clear aligners are right for you. Using advanced digital scanning technology, we create a precise 3D model of your teeth that allows Dr. Canter to map out your entire treatment plan. You'll even be able to preview your expected results before treatment begins! Most patients receive a series of 18-30 custom aligners, each worn for about 1-2 weeks before progressing to the next set. With checkups typically only needed every 8-12 weeks, clear aligner therapy fits seamlessly into busy lifestyles while delivering the professional results that have made Dr. Canter one of Queens' most trusted orthodontists.
