Straighten teeth with removable clear aligners — no traditional braces.
Clear aligners gently move teeth using a series of custom trays. Fulshear Gateway Dentistry does not offer traditional braces; when alignment is a good fit, Dr. Nguyen guides you through clear-aligner care with a plan you can follow at home and in the office.
What are Clear Aligners?
How It Works
Clear aligners are nearly invisible trays worn over the teeth and changed on a schedule. They are designed to improve crowding, spacing, and mild-to-moderate bite concerns without metal brackets or wires.
After an exam and records, we determine if aligners are appropriate. If so, trays are worn as directed, with check-ins to confirm progress. You remove them to eat and brush, then seat the next set when it is time.
