Clear Aligners
What Are Clear Aligners?
/
Clear aligners are flexible plastic trays that fit over your teeth and subtly straighten them over time. At our Littleton, CO, practice, Dr. Krendl offers two options for this form of orthodontics: ClearCorrect and Invisalign.
ClearCorrect: Highly Effective Aligners Designed With Patients in Mind
You have options for orthodontic treatment at our Littleton practice. Wondering how to decide between your choices? Let us introduce you to ClearCorrect.
What makes ClearCorrect so effective? It was created by a dentist for his patients.
Dr. Willis Pumphrey kept his patients' preferences in mind when designing the ClearCorrect system. These aligners are made of thin yet durable materials. Patients praise their comfort and ease of use.
If you're looking for a subtle, removable orthodontic treatment option, ClearCorrect may be the right choice for you.
Receive Invisalign Treatment From an Invisalign Preferred Provider
As an Invisalign Preferred Provider, Dr. Krendl has helped many patients, including his own son, achieve beautiful smiles with clear aligners. Whether you are interested in Invisalign or ClearCorrect, he can create an effective treatment plan for you at our Littleton office.

The folks at Colorado Dental Arts have some serious skills. And when somebody has a sharp power tool just millimeters from your tongue, that's probably important.

Many dental plans will offer coverage for orthodontics, such as clear aligners, but if you are uninsured or have high out-of-pocket costs, the price of treatment may seem daunting. This is why we offer financing through CareCredit®. You can secure a loan with little or no interest and a manageable monthly payment plan to keep your treatment affordable.

Tips for Getting the Most Out of Your Orthodontic Treatment
Practice Good Oral Hygiene
Brushing twice a day and flossing once a day is crucial for your oral health. It can also help prevent gum irritation, which can make wearing your aligners even more comfortable. Be sure to visit Dr. Krendl for regular cleanings and exams as well.
Clean Your Aligners Daily
Your aligners may accumulate debris and bacteria if you do not clean them each day. Simply run them under cool water and clean them with a toothbrush and a mild liquid soap. Washing them with hot water or a dishwasher can warp the plastic.
Don't Eat While Wearing Aligners
If you are using the Invisalign or ClearCorrect system, be sure to take your aligners out before eating or drinking. Clear aligners are durable, but they can still be damaged by chewing or teeth grinding.
Don't Throw Away Your Aligners
It can be tempting to throw your aligners away once you're done using them. Dentists and orthodontists recommend that you keep them in a cool, dry place until your treatment is complete. This will give Dr. Krendl an extra resource in case there are any issues with your progress.
