Clear Aligners: For the Perfect Smile Without Braces
Traditional braces are out, and clear aligners are in! When it comes to straightening teeth, clear aligners rule! They are a clean and discreet option for those seeking a convenient alternative to conventional metallic braces.
Clear aligners are almost invisible and can gently shift your teeth into the perfect position. Our team of skilled dentists at our dental clinic in Canberra create customised clear aligners using our cutting-edge thermostatic material.
And the best part? You can still enjoy all your favourite foods and activities wearing these clear aligners. Get ready to say goodbye to traditional braces and hello to a confident smile with clear aligners.

Our Protocol for Clear Aligners Treatment
We blend cutting-edge technology with expert attention to guarantee the best outcomes at each stage. Our approach involves:
Initial Assessment
Trained dentists will take photos, X-rays, and dental impressions to collect comprehensive data about your teeth.
Custom 3D Treatment Plan
A customised 3D model is created, and your treatment is planned based on your dental records. This simulation lets you visualise how your teeth will look after the treatment.
Aligner Fabrication
Clear aligners are fabricated to fit your exact measurements and align them with the treatment plan. You will wear each aligner daily, changing to a new one approximately every two weeks.
Progress Monitoring
Initially, you will wear a set of clear aligners for one or two weeks, or as our dentists recommend. We will also schedule check-ups every 6 to 8 weeks so we can follow your progress.
Retention
Once you complete the aligner phase, you may have to wear retainers to keep your teeth in their new position and maintain amazing results for the long term.

Valuable Tips to Care For Your Clear Aligners
When it comes to post-treatment care, clear aligners require the same maintenance as other dental procedures. You should:
- Wear your retainers until the time recommended by your dentist so that they maintain their realignment for a long time.
- Brush and floss twice a day to prolong the results of your clear aligners treatment.
- Rinse and clean your retainers with a mild cleanser to keep them plaque and bacteria-free.
- Schedule regular visits to your dentist to ensure your realigned teeth remain in perfect condition.
- Avoid chewy, sticky, and hard foods that can easily damage teeth. Stick to healthier, easy-to-chew foods instead.
Clear Aligners Treatment: Additional Insights
What can I expect after my clear aligners treatment?
After your clear aligners treatment, your doctor will provide a customised retainer to keep your newly aligned teeth in place. You must wear your retainer as instructed by your dentist to maintain the results of your invisible aligners and prevent your teeth from shifting back to their original position.
Are clear aligners suitable for everyone?
Only your dentist can assess your teeth and bite to determine whether clear aligners are ideal for your dental issues. Clear aligners may be unsuitable for individuals with severe bite issues and certain dental conditions. In that case, your dentist may recommend alternative orthodontic treatments.
Will I experience pain during my clear aligners treatment?
Initially, you may experience some discomfort after your clear aligners treatment as your teeth take some time to adjust to these dental devices. At Woden Dental Centre, we customise each aligner to fit your teeth snugly and move them to their desired position. This method is far more convenient than traditional orthodontic treatments involving wires and brackets.
