Removable clear aligners are now a mainstream choice for discreet teeth straightening. Plenty of patients across Belgrano choose them precisely because day-to-day life barely changes. The trays are made in advance from a 3D plan, and you progress through them a fortnight at a time. They suit mild to moderate crowding, spacing and bite issues particularly well.
How Aligner Treatment Works in Belgrano
It starts with a scan or impressions. The clinician designs every stage of movement in software — you can often preview a simulation of the finished result — then the whole tray series is made at once.
Wear time matters above all else: 20–22 hours per day. Attachments — small tooth-coloured bumps bonded to certain teeth — help the trays grip for trickier movements like rotations.
Review appointments in Belgrano are typically every 8–12 weeks. Each appointment reviews how the teeth are tracking and issues the next batch, with remote monitoring offered by some providers between visits.

Mild-to-moderate crowding or spacing is often suitable for clear aligners, while more complex cases are more commonly recommended fixed braces.

Aligners vs Fixed Braces in Belgrano
The headline advantage over fixed braces is discretion — trays are nearly invisible. Being removable means no dietary restrictions and easier cleaning, but that same removability is the risk: it only works if you wear them.
For complex movements — large rotations, significant overbite correction, extraction cases — fixed braces tend to be more predictable. For mild-to-moderate cases, well-fitted aligners deliver comparable results with more comfort.

Stage 1 — Initial Assessment
