About Clear Aligners
Not a fan of brackets and wires? Don’t worry—you’re not alone. Clear aligners have totally changed the game when it comes to straightening teeth. They’re discreet, removable, and (bonus!) you can still eat popcorn without guilt.
Clear aligners are custom-made trays that gently shift your teeth into alignment over time. You wear them for most of the day, take them out to eat and brush, and swap to a new set every few weeks as your smile transforms. No metal. No surprises. Just results.
Why patients of all ages love them:
- Nearly invisible (your secret is safe with us)
- Comfortable and smooth—no pokey wires
- Removable for eating, brushing, and those important selfie moments
- Great for busy teens, adults, and anyone looking for a low-maintenance option
At Sunshine Smiles, we use digital 3D scans (no goop, ever!) to design your custom treatment plan. Whether you’re fixing a few minor gaps or doing a full smile makeover, clear aligners are a flexible, modern way to get results—without putting your life on hold.
Types of Clear Aligners
Because no two smiles are the same, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. That’s why we offer a range of leading clear aligner brands—each with its own strengths, features, and cool tech. During your consultation, we’ll help you pick the perfect fit based on your goals, budget, and timeline.
Here’s the lineup:
Invisalign
The name everyone knows! Invisalign is the original clear aligner system and still one of the most popular. Backed by decades of innovation, it offers precise, predictable results with super-comfortable aligners. Great for teens, adults, and even complex cases.
Oliv
Oliv aligners are all about combining clarity and comfort—with a touch of eco-friendly flair. They’re lightweight, low-profile, and designed to be gentle yet effective. A great option for patients looking for an alternative to the big brands.

Angel Aligners
Angel Aligners combine cutting-edge materials with a super smooth, comfortable fit. Great for sensitive mouths and patients who want a gentle, yet effective treatment experience—without sacrificing aesthetics.
Smilers® Clear Aligners
Smilers aligners are designed for high precision and customization, thanks to 3D printing technology. They offer excellent control and are especially great for patients with unique alignment needs or cosmetic goals.
Whether you want the well-known performance of Invisalign or the stain resistance of Spark, we’ve got the right clear aligner system for your lifestyle. And if you’re not sure which one is best for you? No stress. That’s what we’re here for—personalized care, honest advice, and plenty of smile support.
Clear Aligners for Kids
Did you know kids as young as 7 years old may benefit from orthodontic treatment? That’s why Invisalign created Invisalign First—a clear aligner system made specifically for growing smiles. These aligners gently guide developing teeth and jaws into the right positions while leaving plenty of room for permanent teeth to come in.
For kids, Invisalign offers:
- Comfortable, removable aligners (hello, easy brushing and flossing!)
- No goopy impressions—we use 3D digital scans instead
- Flexible treatment that adapts to growing mouths
- A fun, positive introduction to orthodontics—without the stress of brackets and wires
Parents love that Invisalign for kids can often prevent bigger orthodontic problems down the road, while kids love that their aligners are practically invisible. Win-win!
Of course, Invisalign isn’t the only option—we also offer other clear aligner systems and traditional braces for kids, depending on their unique needs. Our orthodontists will guide you through every option to find the best fit for your child’s smile.
Clear Aligners for Teens
High school comes with enough challenges—braces don’t need to be one of them. That’s where Invisalign Teen comes in. These clear aligners are practically invisible, so teens can feel confident at school, in photos, or on the field. Plus, they’re removable, which means no food restrictions (yep, still eating pizza and popcorn).
Why teens love Invisalign:
- Nearly invisible aligners that blend right in
- No brackets or wires to irritate cheeks
- Removable for eating, brushing, sports, and school events
- Predictable results powered by advanced 3D planning
Parents love Invisalign too, especially the built-in wear indicators that help track if teens are following the plan. And don’t worry, if Invisalign isn’t the right choice, we also offer other aligner brands and braces to make sure every teen gets the perfect treatment for their lifestyle.
Bottom line? Invisalign gives teens the freedom to be themselves while working toward a confident, healthy smile.
Clear Aligners for Adults
Braces aren’t just for kids and teens—more adults than ever are choosing Invisalign to finally get the smile they’ve always wanted. With Invisalign for adults, you can straighten your teeth without disrupting your busy life. The aligners are discreet, removable, and designed to fit seamlessly into your routine.
Why adults choose Invisalign:
- Discreet and professional—perfect for work or social events
- Comfortable fit with no sharp brackets or wires
- Fewer office visits thanks to efficient digital treatment planning
- Removable for meals, meetings, and date nights
Whether you skipped braces as a kid, or your teeth shifted over time, Invisalign offers a modern solution that works for your schedule and your goals. And if Invisalign isn’t the best fit for your smile? We’ve got plenty of other clear aligner options (like Spark, SureSmile, and more) as well as adult-friendly braces.
Your smile has no expiration date, and at Sunshine Smiles, we’ll help you find the treatment that makes you feel confident every single day.
