Clear Aligners

Invisible teeth straightening for modern lifestyles

What Are Clear Aligners?

Clear aligners are a revolutionary orthodontic treatment using a series of custom-made, transparent plastic trays to gradually move teeth into proper alignment. They offer a virtually invisible alternative to traditional braces.

At Avana Dental, we use advanced 3D scanning and treatment planning to create personalized aligner systems that deliver predictable, beautiful results.
