Orthodontist-led, home-friendly

Unlike mail-order kits, Smile Express begins with an in-person exam, X-rays and a 3D scan at your local clinic. If you’re a good fit, your orthodontist designs a short series of clear aligners and monitors your progress remotely.

It’s ideal for adults who had braces as kids and noticed some shifting, or who want to fix a small gap before a big event.

Frequently asked questions

How is Smile Express different from mail-order aligners?

You get an in-person exam with X-rays, a plan designed by a licensed orthodontist, and a local clinic if anything comes up.

Who is not a candidate?

Patients with bite problems or significant crowding are better served by comprehensive Invisalign® or braces — we’ll tell you at your free consultation.

Do I still need retainers?

Yes. Retainers are included in your plan and keep your teeth from shifting back.
