Chattanooga Clear Aligners
Smile Straightening
That Fits Your Life
Greater Chattanooga Orthodontics offers Angel Aligners to help you get a straighter smile without brackets or wires. Clear aligners are perfect for busy families in Chattanooga looking for a subtle, convenient treatment that delivers real results.
A Smarter Way to Straighten
Clear aligners are a modern solution for straightening teeth using a series of custom-made, removable trays. Each tray gently shifts your teeth a little at a time until your smile is aligned and your bite feels balanced.
Unlike traditional braces, clear aligners don’t require brackets, wires, or tightening. You’ll wear each aligner for about a week before switching to the next in the series.
And because they’re nearly invisible, you’ll be straightening your teeth without displaying your treatment.
Clear Benefits of
Clear Aligners
Clear aligners take orthodontic treatment to the next level—offering sleek, personalized care for teens and adults alike. They’re designed to handle a wide range of smile needs with less hassle, greater comfort, and practically zero visibility.
Let’s break down why patients in Chattanooga love aligner treatment.
Subtle Treatment
Clear aligners are made from transparent plastic that fits snugly over your teeth—so most people won’t even know you’re wearing them. Whether you're in school, at work, or on camera, your smile stays front and center while your aligners do their job behind the scenes.
Enhanced Convenience
Aligners are smooth, removable, and free from brackets or wires—meaning no irritation and fewer lifestyle restrictions. You can pop them out to eat, drink, brush, or floss, making it easy to keep up with your day-to-day routine.
Just wear them for 20–22 hours a day, and you’re on your way to a straighter smile.
Supremely Comfortable
Each set of aligners is made from flexible, BPA-free plastic and shaped to match your smile perfectly. That means a snug fit with minimal rubbing—and no poking wires to worry about
Customized Treatment
At Greater Chattanooga Orthodontics, we use advanced 3D imaging to design a fully customized plan for your aligners. Each tray is tailored to your smile’s unique shape, allowing for precise tooth movements and faster progress.
Your Clear Path to
a New Smile
Clear aligners make orthodontic treatment feel simple, seamless, and even fun.
At Greater Chattanooga Orthodontics, Dr. Cheryl Aldridge uses digital technology and custom-designed trays to gently guide your teeth into place—no brackets, wires, or problems.
Here’s how it works:
01
Tell Us About Your Smile
Your first step is a free consultation at our Chattanooga office. Dr. Aldridge will examine your bite, chat with you about your goals, and let you know if clear aligners are the right fit for your smile.
02
Smile for the Scanner
Next, we’ll take digital impressions using our high-tech iTero scanner—no gooey molds here. These scans help us create a 3D model of your smile and design a series of custom aligners that map out every step of your transformation.
03
Pick Up Your Aligners
Once your aligners are ready, you’ll swing by to pick them up and try on your first set. You’ll wear them for 20–22 hours a day, removing them only to eat, drink anything but water, brush, and floss.
04
Switch & Smile
Every week or two, you’ll switch to a new set of aligners that picks up where the last one left off. You won’t need regular adjustments, but you’ll still come to see us every six to eight weeks so Dr. Aldridge can make sure everything’s moving along perfectly.
05
Show Off Your New Grin
After your final set of aligners, it’s time to show off that fresh, straight smile! We’ll check your bite, admire your results, and celebrate your progress (expect high-fives).
06
Lock It In
To keep your smile looking amazing for life, we’ll provide a custom clear retainer to wear at night. It fits just like your aligners and makes sure your hard-earned smile stays right where it should.
