Minor Tooth Movement

Waxahachie Family DentistryMinor tooth movement utilizes clear aligners to reposition teeth orthodontically.  If you have slight crowding or spacing of your front teeth, this can be a quicker and less expensive alternative to braces.

The process involves several short dental visits and generally takes about six months to complete.  The aligners are worn all day and night, except when eating, and are virtually invisible and unobtrusive.  A clear retainer is fabricated when treatment is finished and is worn at night to help maintain the newly aligned teeth.
