Clear invisible braces are a type of orthodontic treatment that straightens teeth using clear, removable aligners. Unlike traditional metal braces, clear invisible braces are virtually invisible and do not require wires or brackets. They are custom-made to fit your teeth and are changed every two weeks as your teeth gradually shift into the desired position.

Clear invisible braces are a popular alternative to traditional braces for those who want a more discreet treatment option.
