A Great Alternative to Traditional Braces
Clear Aligners — a Comfortable Option for Teeth Straightening, Nearly Invisible, and Discreet
An Alternative Solution for Straighter Teeth
Aligners are a great alternative to traditional braces for straightening teeth. If you prefer aligners over braces, our team will discuss your options to see if clear aligners are the right solution. Michael Riordan Orthodontics offers clear aligners in Fort Mill, Lake Wylie, and Batesburg-Leesville, SC.

How the Clear Aligners Treatment Works
1. Initial Consultation
During the initial consultation, we will examine your teeth and bite to determine if you are an ideal candidate for clear aligners. After the examination portion of the consultation, we will take digital impressions or scans of your teeth. The impressions or scans create a 3D model of your teeth to show their current alignment. Dr. Riordan will review your scans and create a custom treatment plan for you.
2. Clear Aligner Creation
We use the 3D model of your teeth to create your multiple custom-fitted aligners. Each aligner plays an important role in gradually moving your teeth to reach the proper alignment. Each aligner is designed to be worn for a specific period before switching to another one, as outlined in your treatment plan.
3. Wearing Your Aligners and Progression
4. Regular Check-ups and Maintaining Results
The treatment plan consists of regular check-ups to monitor your progress and ensure you are on track to get the desired results. Once your teeth are in the right position, you may need a final set of aligners or retainers to maintain your results.
Benefits of Clear Aligners
- Comfortable to Wear: Unlike traditional braces, which are made of metal components that irritate your mouth, clear aligners are made of smooth plastic, making them a more comfortable option.
- Discreet: Clear aligners are nearly invisible, making them an ideal option for individuals who want to straighten their teeth discreetly.
- Low Maintenance: Clear aligners require less maintenance than metal braces, which have brackets with wires that need to be adjusted.
- Convenient: Clear aligners can be removed for eating and drinking anything other than water. Also, brushing and flossing are much easier with clear aligners than traditional braces.
- Shorter Treatment Time: Clear aligners move teeth more efficiently allowing for a shorter treatment time compared to metal braces.
