You’re a Teen or Adult
In general, we recommend and adults. This is because you’ll be required to wear your clear aligners at least 20 to 22 hours per day. Not only does this take a lot of discipline, but you’ll also be responsible for maintaining good oral hygiene throughout the day.

Young children don’t have the same level of motivation as teenagers and adults to improve their smiles. They also don’t have the ability to fully understand the consequences of their actions in the long run.

Whether you have a public-facing job or you’re going to school, many of our patients don’t want metal braces on their teeth.
