About Clear Aligners
Looking for a discreet alternative to braces? Clear aligners offer a comfortable, removable, and virtually invisible way to straighten your teeth—without metal wires or brackets. At Franklin Orthodontics, we provide expert clear aligner treatment that’s tailored to your unique smile and lifestyle.
Clear aligners work by gently shifting your teeth over time using a series of custom-fit, transparent trays. You’ll wear each set for about two weeks before switching to the next, gradually guiding your teeth into perfect alignment.
Why patients love clear aligners:
- Nearly invisible – perfect for adults and teens
- Removable – eat what you love, brush and floss with ease
- Comfortable – no poking wires or brackets
- Custom-designed for your specific smile goals
Whether you’re looking to improve your bite, close gaps, or fix crowding, clear aligners offer a sleek and flexible solution — with results you can feel confident about.

Clear Aligners for Kids
While traditional braces are still common for younger children, clear aligners are becoming a great option for certain kids—especially those with early orthodontic needs and the maturity to follow aligner instructions. At Franklin Orthodontics, we carefully evaluate each child to determine if 3M Clarity Aligners are the right fit for their smile and development stage.
Clear aligners can help correct minor crowding, spacing, and alignment issues during Phase One treatment, often reducing the need for more extensive treatment later. Plus, aligners are removable, which makes it easier for kids to brush, floss, and maintain healthy habits.
Why parents choose clear aligners for kids:
- Comfortable and gentle for sensitive mouths
- Easier hygiene, leading to better oral health
- Fewer emergency visits (no broken brackets or wires!)
- Designed with safety and growth in mind
With careful supervision and family involvement, clear aligners can be an effective and stress-free option for younger patients.
Clear Aligners for Teens
For today’s teens, image matters—and so does convenience. 3M Clarity Aligners offer the best of both worlds: a nearly invisible way to straighten teeth and the freedom to enjoy life without metal braces. Whether it’s school, sports, or social events, teens love the ability to remove their aligners when they need to, and parents love how effective and safe the treatment is under Dr. Franklin’s care.
At Franklin Orthodontics, we use advanced digital scans to create a customized aligner plan that fits your teen’s smile goals and lifestyle. We also track progress closely, ensuring each phase of treatment stays on course.
Benefits of clear aligners for teens:
