The Inman Aligner is an innovative orthodontic system designed to treat protruding or crowded front teeth. It resembles traditional wire retainers and works by using two aligner bars to guide your front teeth into the correct positions.

Why Choose the Inman Aligner?

Most treatments using the Inman Aligner can be completed in 6 to 18 weeks. This orthodontic appliance is removable, making it easy for you to eat, brush and floss your teeth during your treatment. Please note that the Inman Aligner only works for your front teeth. If you require a more extensive orthodontic treatment, an alternative will be suggested.

How The Inman Aligner Works

The Inman Aligner looks somewhat similar to a retainer, but it works through a unique design that uses nickel titanium coil springs and opposing aligner bows. These components apply gentle, continuous pressure to guide the front teeth into better alignment. Because it focuses primarily on the front teeth, treatment is often faster than with more comprehensive orthodontic options. Many patients complete treatment in about six to 18 weeks.

Benefits Of Removable Treatment

One of the biggest advantages of the Inman Aligner is convenience. Because the appliance is removable, you can take it out while eating and brushing your teeth, making it easier to maintain your usual oral hygiene routine. This also allows you to enjoy a minimally invasive treatment that fits more comfortably into your daily life.

Wearing And Caring For Your Aligner

For the best outcome, you will need to wear your aligner exactly as directed by our dentist. Consistent wear is essential to keep your treatment on track. You should also clean both your teeth and the appliance before placing it back in your mouth.
