Clear aligners have become one of the most popular ways to straighten teeth without the look of fixed braces. Among Tiltups End patients, they are the default request for anyone self-conscious about braces. You wear the set in order, each one nudging the teeth a fraction closer to the planned result. They suit mild to moderate crowding, spacing and bite issues particularly well.

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.
