Clear Aligners (Solventum™ Clarity™ Aligners) in Union, NJ
Clear Aligners (Solventum™ Clarity™ Aligners) straighten teeth using a series of clear, removable aligners instead of metal brackets.

The essentials
How do Clear Aligners (Solventum™ Clarity™ Aligners) work?
Clear Aligners (Solventum™ Clarity™ Aligners) use a planned sequence of transparent plastic trays that apply controlled pressure to move selected teeth gradually.
Each aligner is worn for the prescribed period before moving to the next in the series. The trays are removed for eating, drinking anything other than water, brushing, and flossing, but consistent daily wear is necessary for predictable progress.
Dr. Brahmbhatt and the Union Family Dental team in Union, NJ use digital records to diagnose alignment and bite concerns, preview planned movement, and monitor treatment.
