Clear Aligners in Falls Church, VA
Discreet, Wire-Free Smile Straightening That Works With Your Life
Want straighter teeth without the brackets, metal, or lifestyle disruption? At Westphalia Dental Implant Center Falls Church, we offer custom clear aligner therapy to help you align your smile without drawing attention to your treatment. Whether you’re prepping for a big moment or just want more confidence day-to-day, clear aligners make orthodontic care easier than ever.
A Straightforward Way to Straighten Your Smile
Clear aligners are transparent trays designed to move your teeth gradually — without fixed hardware, uncomfortable wires, or dietary restrictions. They’re popular with adults and teens across Annandale, Merrifield, and Arlington who want to correct misalignment without traditional braces.
We work with Invisalign and other leading clear aligner systems to customize the best option for your case, goals, and budget.
What Clear Aligners Treat:
- Mild to moderate crowding
- Spacing and gaps
- Rotated or uneven teeth
- Bite issues (like overbite or crossbite)
- Teeth shifting after braces
Clear aligners can also be part of a broader smile makeover plan, especially when paired with whitening or veneers.
How Treatment Works — Simple, Subtle, and Predictable
No brackets. No adjustments. Just progress.
Here’s what you can expect:
- Smile Consultation & Scan
We’ll take digital scans of your teeth and bite — no goopy impressions needed — and discuss your smile goals. - Custom Treatment Plan
We create a 3D digital model that shows how your teeth will shift over time, so you know what to expect. - Aligner Delivery
You’ll receive a series of aligners — each worn for 1–2 weeks before moving on to the next. The trays are clear, snug-fitting, and barely noticeable. - Progress Monitoring
We'll see you every few weeks to track progress and ensure your treatment stays on course.
Treatment timelines vary, but many of our patients in Falls Church and Seven Corners complete their clear aligner therapy in 6–12 months.
Not Just Cosmetic — Clear Aligners Improve Function, Too
Beyond straight teeth, aligners help improve bite function, reduce enamel wear, and make brushing and flossing easier — lowering your risk for cavities and gum issues down the line.
Clear aligner therapy is ideal for:
- Adults who skipped braces or had orthodontic relapse
- Teens seeking an invisible alternative to brackets
- Anyone wanting to improve their smile without interrupting work or social life
And because aligners are removable, you can still enjoy your favorite foods and maintain your normal hygiene routine with ease.

FAQs: Clear Aligners in Falls Church
Are clear aligners the same as Invisalign?
Invisalign is one brand of clear aligners — and one we often use. We also work with other top systems depending on your goals. What matters most is that your aligners are planned and monitored by an experienced dental team.
How often do I have to wear my aligners?
You’ll wear them for 20–22 hours a day, only removing them to eat, brush, or floss. Consistency is key to getting results on time.
Will aligners affect how I talk?
There may be a short adjustment period, but most patients adapt quickly and speak normally within a day or two.
Can I switch to clear aligners if I had braces before?
Yes — many patients use clear aligners to correct relapse after braces, especially if retainers were stopped or lost.
Are clear aligners covered by insurance?
Some dental insurance plans include orthodontic coverage. We’ll help you check your benefits. If not, we offer financing and savings options to make care accessible.
