Why Use Clear Aligners To Straighten Your Teeth? Some of our patients want to straighten their teeth, but would like more control in their day to day care, and get the work done more discreetly.

Our team at Water's Edge Dental, we can help you obtain teeth that are straighter, close any gaps, and help adjust your bite, while maintaining a professional look. Shockingly, current studies show that only 35% of adults have a good bite or correctly aligned teeth, and some of them even wore braces in their youth.
