We serve patients of all ages and with a very high standard. Today the topic that I want to share with you is clear aligners.
Who is an ideal candidate for clear aligners?
If you have teeth in your mouth and they are all permanent teeth, not baby teeth, you are an ideal candidate.
Every 20 years of your life, the teeth, muscles, gums, and bones in your mouth need to be recalibrated. With this comes the importance of clear aligners.
What is the purpose of wearing clear aligners?
Many times clear aligners are mistaken for just aesthetic reasons. Meaning making the teeth look beautiful and all aligned well. But that is not the only purpose.
The key benefit of clear aligners at an adult stage is that it helps the gums and bones recalibrate and work their way around the teeth in your mouth.
Just like you exercise for your body, shower, or get a massage to feel rejuvenated, your teeth need to feel the exact same way. The clear aligners do just that.
Through various stages in life, the teeth also go through changes you don’t realize. So if you want to keep your long-lasting smile for a long time, I suggest clear aligners.
Make an appointment with us today to learn more about clear aligners.”

Frequently asked questions about clear aligners as an alternative to traditional braces
Straighter teeth are more than just beautiful- they are also healthier! Dr. Anu Mohan of I-Rise Dental Boutique educates her patients on the many benefits of a straighter smile, including teeth that are easier to clean and to avoid malocclusion issues such as temporomandibular joint disorder or bruxism. However, many patients in the Del Mar, California area who are considering ways to straighten their smiles often avoid having this conversation with their dentist because they are worried about the need for unsightly metal bracket-and-wire orthodontia. Fortunately, there’s another way! With clear braces, also referred to as clear aligner therapy, patients can straighten their teeth without feeling self-conscious about their smiles!
What are clear braces?
Clear braces, also known as clear aligner therapy, are an alternative to traditional metal braces for straightening teeth. They consist of several clear plastic trays custom-made for each patient’s unique smile. These trays gradually shift the teeth into the desired position without the need for conventional metal brackets or wires.
How do clear braces work?
The process of straightening the teeth with the use of clear aligner trays begins with a consultation with Dr. Anu Mohan. During this appointment, Dr. Anu Mohan takes impressions of the patient’s teeth and creates a 3D model of their smile. Using advanced technology, she then designs a custom series of trays that will gradually shift the teeth into place over time.
What happens if I do not comply with treatment?
To achieve the desired improvements from clear aligner therapy, it is critical that patients comply with the treatment plan and wear their aligner trays for the recommended amount of time each day. Not following the treatment plan may result in slower progress or difficulty achieving the desired outcome. In some cases, additional trays may need to be made if there is a significant delay in wearing the aligners.
How do I keep my aligners clean?
To keep your custom aligners clean, it is recommended to take them out prior to eating or drinking anything other than water. This prevents staining and buildup of bacteria in the trays. When not wearing the aligners, they should be stored in their designated case to avoid damage or loss. It is also essential to brush and floss your teeth prior to putting the aligners back on after having them removed.
Am I a good candidate for clear braces?
Determining candidacy for this treatment starts with a consultation appointment and initial evaluation with Dr. Anu Mohan and her team at I-Rise Dental Boutique.
