Clear Aligners in Cypress, TX
At Solitaire Orthodontics, Drs. Piyush and Kiran Heda are proud to offer Angel Aligners, one of the most advanced clear aligner systems available today. If you’ve been thinking about improving your smile but are hesitant to wear braces, clear aligners may be the perfect alternative. Designed for both adults and teens, Angel Aligners deliver reliable results while blending discreetly into your lifestyle.
Clear aligners can address a wide range of orthodontic concerns, including crowding, spacing, overbites, underbites, and crossbites. Whether your goal is a healthier bite, a straighter smile, or more confidence in your appearance, aligners provide a comfortable and effective treatment option.
Why Choose Clear Aligners?
Clear aligners are custom-made trays that gradually shift your teeth into alignment. Unlike braces, they do not use wires or brackets, making them more comfortable and less noticeable. Some of the main benefits include:
Removable convenience: Take your aligners out before meals, so you can still enjoy your favorite foods.
Easy hygiene: Brushing and flossing remain simple without brackets and wires to clean around.
Discreet look: Made of smooth, transparent material, aligners are nearly invisible when worn.
Comfortable fit: The trays are custom-designed to match your teeth and gums, reducing irritation.
Predictable results: Digital technology allows you to preview your future smile before starting treatment.
How Does Angel Aligners Work?
Your clear aligner journey begins with a digital 3D scan, no messy putty impressions needed. Using this scan, Drs. Heda will design a personalized treatment plan that maps out each stage of your tooth movement.
You’ll receive a series of aligners, each slightly different, that you’ll change according to your doctor’s instructions.
Regular check-ups allow us to track your progress and provide new sets of aligners.
With consistent wear, your teeth will gently shift into their ideal position.
Once treatment is complete, retainers are provided to keep your smile straight and stable.
What is the Difference Between Clear Aligners vs. Braces?
Both braces and aligners are effective, but there are differences to consider:
Appearance: Aligners are nearly invisible, while braces are more noticeable.
Comfort: Aligners are smooth plastic; braces may cause irritation from wires and brackets.
Food: Aligners are removed for meals, so there are no dietary restrictions. Braces require avoiding sticky or hard foods.
Maintenance: Brushing and flossing are easier with aligners, while braces require more effort to clean around brackets.
Treatment needs: Braces may still be recommended for complex corrections, while aligners are ideal for most mild to moderate cases.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are clear aligners as effective as traditional braces?
Yes, for most mild to moderate orthodontic cases, clear aligners are just as effective as braces. They can treat crowding, gaps, overbites, underbites, and more, all while maintaining comfort and discretion.
How long does clear aligner treatment take?
Treatment time varies depending on your needs, but most patients complete their smile transformation in 6–18 months. Consistently wearing your aligners 20–22 hours a day ensures the best and fastest results.
Can I eat and drink while wearing my clear aligners?
You should remove your aligners before eating or drinking anything other than water. This prevents staining and damage while allowing you to enjoy all your favorite foods without restrictions.
How do I clean my clear aligners?
Rinse them every time you remove them, and clean daily with a soft toothbrush and mild soap or clear aligner cleaner. Avoid hot water, as it can warp the plastic. Good hygiene keeps your aligners clear and odor-free.
How often do I need to visit the orthodontist during clear aligner treatment?
Most patients have quick checkups every 6–10 weeks. These visits allow Drs. Heda to monitor your progress, provide new aligner sets, and make sure your teeth are tracking perfectly, keeping treatment on schedule.
