How Do Clear Aligners Straighten Teeth? — With Lily, Our LS ToothBuddy

Ever wondered how clear aligners actually straighten teeth? Lily, our LS ToothBuddy, breaks it down in under a minute — the trays, the wear time, and why consistency makes all the difference.

Here's What's Going On

Clear aligners are a series of thin, see-through trays made just for your mouth.

Each tray is shaped a little differently, gently nudging the teeth to move a tiny bit.

You wear them about twenty to twenty-two hours a day, taking them out only to eat and clean.

Every one to two weeks, you switch to the next tray in the set, step by step.

The result depends a lot on wearing them consistently, so discipline does the real work.
