ClearCorrect in Beverly Hills
Straighten Your Smile Discreetly with ClearCorrect Clear Aligners
What Is ClearCorrect?
ClearCorrect is a clear aligner orthodontic system that uses custom-fabricated, transparent plastic trays to straighten teeth progressively. Each aligner is designed to move teeth incrementally toward their final positions. Specifically, you wear each set of aligners for approximately one to two weeks before progressing to the next set in the series. The system uses advanced 3D imaging technology to map your entire treatment journey from start to finish, showing you exactly how your smile will transform.
These clear aligners differ significantly from traditional metal braces in numerous important ways. While braces use fixed brackets and wires bonded to your teeth, ClearCorrect aligners are completely removable. Furthermore, the clear plastic material makes them virtually invisible when worn, unlike highly visible metal hardware. As a result, you can straighten your teeth discreetly without anyone noticing your orthodontic treatment. Additionally, removability allows you to eat whatever you want and maintain excellent oral hygiene throughout treatment.
ClearCorrect has successfully treated millions of patients worldwide with various orthodontic concerns. This proven technology addresses crowding, spacing, overbites, underbites, and crossbites effectively. However, extremely complex cases or severe malocclusions may still require traditional braces. During your consultation at Smile Angels of Beverly Hills, I’ll evaluate your specific alignment issues and bite relationships thoroughly. Then, I’ll determine whether ClearCorrect is the right solution for achieving your ideal smile. Most patients from West Hollywood, Century City, and throughout Beverly Hills are excellent candidates for this convenient, aesthetic orthodontic approach.
ClearCorrect Versus Other Clear Aligners
ClearCorrect competes directly with other clear aligner brands, offering comparable quality and results at often more accessible pricing. Like its competitors, ClearCorrect uses advanced 3D technology and custom-fitted aligners. Furthermore, treatment times are generally similar across reputable clear aligner systems. However, ClearCorrect distinguishes itself through its American-based manufacturing and excellent customer service. Additionally, many patients find ClearCorrect more affordable than some premium aligner brands without compromising quality or effectiveness.
The aligners themselves feature high-quality materials and comfortable design. ClearCorrect trays are made from medical-grade polyurethane that’s BPA-free and biocompatible. Specifically, the material is engineered to remain clear and stain-resistant throughout the wear period. Furthermore, the trimline is customized for optimal comfort and aesthetics, ending precisely at your gumline. As a result, the aligners fit snugly without causing irritation or appearing bulky. Additionally, the smooth, polished finish prevents rough edges that could irritate your cheeks or tongue.
Treatment planning with ClearCorrect offers flexibility tailored to various correction needs. The system provides multiple treatment options from minor adjustments to comprehensive corrections. ClearCorrect Limited addresses minor spacing or crowding in 6 months or less. ClearCorrect Flex treats moderate cases in approximately 12 months. Furthermore, ClearCorrect Unlimited handles complex orthodontic issues with unlimited aligners throughout treatment. At Smile Angels of Beverly Hills, I select the appropriate ClearCorrect option based on your specific alignment needs and goals. This customization ensures you receive the exact level of treatment necessary without paying for more extensive plans than required.
The ClearCorrect Treatment Process
Your ClearCorrect journey begins with a comprehensive smile assessment at Smile Angels of Beverly Hills. First, I examine your teeth, bite, and overall oral health thoroughly. Then, I discuss your aesthetic goals and what you’d like to improve about your smile. Next, I use our advanced iTero digital scanner to create precise 3D images of your teeth. This comfortable scanning process takes only minutes and completely eliminates messy, uncomfortable impression materials. Additionally, digital scanning provides exceptional accuracy for optimal aligner fit.
Using your 3D scan, I design your personalized ClearCorrect treatment plan with meticulous attention to detail. Advanced software allows me to show you a virtual representation of your smile transformation before treatment even begins. You’ll see exactly how your teeth will move at each stage throughout the process. Furthermore, I provide an estimated treatment timeline based on your specific correction needs. Most patients in West Hollywood and Century City complete treatment in 6 to 18 months, though duration varies based on complexity. This preview technology helps you understand and commit to treatment with complete confidence.
Once your custom ClearCorrect aligners arrive, you’ll begin wearing them for 22 hours daily, removing them only for eating, drinking anything besides water, and oral hygiene. You’ll switch to new aligners at home every one to two weeks according to your personalized schedule. Additionally, you’ll visit our Beverly Hills office every 4 to 8 weeks so I can monitor your progress and provide your next sets of aligners. These appointments are typically brief and convenient. Throughout treatment, the clear aligners work continuously to move your teeth, with most patients seeing noticeable improvements within the first few months. The convenience and discretion of ClearCorrect allow you to straighten your smile while maintaining your normal lifestyle and professional appearance without interruption.
ClearCorrect Cost and Financing
The investment in ClearCorrect treatment varies based on the complexity of your case and treatment duration. Pricing depends on whether you need ClearCorrect Limited for minor corrections or ClearCorrect Unlimited for comprehensive straightening. However, ClearCorrect often costs less than some premium aligner brands while delivering comparable quality and results. Additionally, pricing is typically similar to traditional braces, making clear aligners accessible for most patients. Many dental insurance plans that cover orthodontics also cover ClearCorrect treatment at similar rates.
Several factors influence your individual ClearCorrect investment. The severity of misalignment affects treatment length and number of aligners required. Additionally, whether you need attachments (small tooth-colored bumps that help aligners grip teeth) impacts pricing slightly. Some patients require preliminary work like addressing gum disease or cavities before beginning aligner therapy. Furthermore, refinement aligners to perfect final positioning may occasionally be necessary. At Smile Angels of Beverly Hills, I provide transparent, detailed cost estimates during your consultation so you understand your investment completely.
I’m committed to making ClearCorrect accessible and affordable for patients throughout Los Angeles. Consequently, we offer flexible financing options with convenient monthly payment plans that fit virtually any budget. Many patients choose financing that spreads costs over the treatment period, making even comprehensive orthodontics manageable. Additionally, we maximize your insurance benefits and provide documentation needed for reimbursement. Some patients use health savings accounts (HSAs) or flexible spending accounts (FSAs) for tax-advantaged payments. I encourage you to schedule a free consultation where we can evaluate your alignment needs and discuss personalized treatment and payment options that make achieving your dream smile achievable.
Living with ClearCorrect Aligners
Adapting to ClearCorrect aligners is remarkably easy for most patients. Initially, you may experience slight pressure or discomfort for a day or two when switching to new aligners. This sensation indicates your teeth are moving as planned. Furthermore, you might produce slightly more saliva initially as your mouth adjusts to having aligners present. However, most patients adapt within a few days and forget they’re even wearing aligners. Additionally, any temporary speech changes or lisping typically resolve within a week as you become accustomed to speaking with aligners.
One of ClearCorrect’s greatest advantages is the dietary freedom removability provides. You can eat and drink whatever you want because you remove aligners during meals. Simply take out your aligners, enjoy your food, brush your teeth, and reinsert them. However, you should remove aligners before consuming anything except water to prevent staining and damage. Additionally, avoid drinking hot beverages while wearing aligners, as heat can warp the plastic material. This flexibility represents a major advantage over traditional braces, which restrict certain foods throughout treatment.
Maintaining your ClearCorrect aligners requires simple daily care routines. Rinse aligners with lukewarm water when removing them and before reinserting. Additionally, brush them gently with a soft toothbrush and clear, antibacterial soap daily. You can also use ClearCorrect cleaning crystals or retainer cleaning tablets for deeper cleaning. Furthermore, always brush and floss your teeth before reinserting aligners to maintain optimal oral health. Store aligners in their protective case when not wearing them to prevent loss or damage. At Smile Angels of Beverly Hills, I provide comprehensive care instructions ensuring patients throughout West Hollywood, Century City, and Los Angeles maintain their aligners properly while achieving beautiful, straight smiles successfully.

Frequently Asked Questions About ClearCorrect
ClearCorrect treatment typically takes 6 to 18 months depending on the complexity of your alignment issues. Minor corrections with ClearCorrect Limited may be completed in just 6 months or less. However, moderate to severe misalignment requiring comprehensive treatment can take 12 to 18 months. Additionally, treatment duration depends on how consistently you wear your aligners—22 hours daily is essential for staying on schedule. During your consultation at Smile Angels of Beverly Hills, I’ll provide a personalized timeline based on your specific orthodontic needs and goals.
ClearCorrect aligners are virtually invisible from normal conversational distances. The clear plastic material is extremely difficult to notice unless someone is looking very closely at your teeth. Most patients throughout Beverly Hills and West Hollywood report that colleagues, friends, and even family members don’t realize they’re wearing orthodontic aligners. This discretion makes ClearCorrect extremely popular among adults and teenagers who want to straighten teeth without the appearance of traditional braces affecting their professional image or self-confidence during social interactions.
While ClearCorrect aligners are removable, you must wear them 22 hours daily for treatment to progress on schedule. However, you can remove them briefly for important events like weddings, presentations, or photographs. Just understand that frequent or prolonged removal extends your treatment timeline. Additionally, removing aligners delays tooth movement and may cause discomfort when you reinsert them. For best results, only remove aligners for meals and oral hygiene. At our Beverly Hills office, I help patients balance treatment effectiveness with lifestyle needs for optimal outcomes.
ClearCorrect may cause slight, temporary speech changes for the first few days as your mouth adjusts to wearing aligners. Some patients experience minor lisping with certain sounds initially. However, most people adapt completely within a week of consistent wear. Furthermore, practicing speaking, reading aloud, or singing accelerates the adjustment process. The thin, precisely fitted design of ClearCorrect aligners minimizes speech interference compared to bulkier orthodontic appliances. Most patients report that any initial speech challenges resolve quickly and cause minimal disruption to daily communication.
After completing ClearCorrect treatment, you’ll need to wear retainers to maintain your beautifully straight smile. Initially, you may wear retainers full-time for several months, then transition to nighttime-only wear indefinitely. Retainers prevent teeth from gradually shifting back toward their original positions. Additionally, I provide thorough instructions on retainer care and wear schedules. Some patients choose permanent bonded retainers on lower front teeth for added security. Regular checkups at Smile Angels of Beverly Hills ensure your smile remains straight and beautiful for life with proper retention.
