Clear aligners don't involve any surgery, so there's no procedural pain to worry about. Some people feel mild pressure or tightness for a day or two after switching to a new set — that's just your teeth adjusting, and it settles quickly.

You'll take your aligners out to eat or drink anything besides water, then give your teeth a quick clean before putting them back in. Outside of that, there's no change to your day-to-day — most people are used to the routine within a week.

A lot of at-home aligner kits look cheaper upfront, but there's no dentist checking your bite, your gum health, or your jaw before treatment starts — and no one to catch a problem partway through. At Forest Road Dental, Dr Doan personally reviews every case and stays involved the whole way, in person.

Clear aligners like Angel Aligner are virtually transparent, so most people won't notice unless you point it out. It's one of the main reasons people choose them over traditional metal braces, especially once you're a few weeks in and used to wearing them.

Forest Road Dental accepts all major health funds, so any extras cover you have can go toward your treatment. We also offer a flexible payment plan which we'll go through exactly what applies to you at your consultation.
