3M Clear Aligners

We’re thrilled to offer discreet orthodontic treatment in Vienna, VA, through 3M. Your dentist uses this system because it offers more benefits than most other options and equates to beautiful, aligned smiles for our valued patients.

Of course, there is more to orthodontic care than smile aesthetics, but most of us want a smile we can be proud to show the world.

3M clear aligners address the following aesthetic orthodontic issues:

  • Crowded and Crooked Teeth
  • Twisted and Overlapping Teeth
  • Large Gaps or Unusual Spacing Between Teeth
  • Bite Misalignment Issues, Such as Overbite and Underbite

3M also supports a level bite force, healthy jaw joints, and reduced stress on teeth for a comfortable, lasting smile.

What to Know at a Glance: How Clear Aligners Work

Clear aligners are worn sequentially, and you change them every few weeks or as directed by your dentist.

The aligners gradually move teeth into more desirable positions over a specific time period. At the end of treatment, your dentist will create a custom retainer to help keep your teeth in their new straight positions.

3M's Exclusive Tracking App Makes Treatment a Breeze

3M treatment tracking via an exclusive app makes orthodontic treatment more convenient and easier than ever. Below, we share a few reasons why.

Convenience

You can upload images and share treatment progress photos with your dentist through the exclusive app.

Ease of Treatment

Your dentist can monitor your treatment progress remotely, reducing the number of trips to the dental office.

Communication

You can communicate directly with your dentist or orthodontist using the exclusive 3M treatment app.

Frequently Asked Questions

woman with dental anxiety in vienna vaFirst, you should know that anxiety over dental visits is extremely common, and millions of people feel exactly the same way as you. We know that all it takes is one bad experience to put you off dental treatments completely.

If this has happened to you, it helps if you try to remember that the great majority of dentists are very caring professionals who understand your concerns. However, we know that this may not be enough to get you past your dental anxiety.

At Tysons Corner Dentistry, we are sensitive to your feelings and will do everything possible to make every visit as calming and stress-free as possible. In addition, we offer sedation options that will add that extra layer of comfort so that you can receive the necessary treatment.

Nitrous oxide (laughing gas) is most effective if you have mild to moderate anxiety. The great thing about sedation with nitrous oxide is that it does not have any lingering after-effects. After treatment, you will be able to resume your normal daily activities.

Call Your Dentist About Your Sedation Dentistry Options

Oral sedation is appropriate if your anxiety is more severe. Dr. Sanati or Dr. Shahram will prescribe a calming medication that you can take before you arrive at our office. We often combine oral sedation with nitrous oxide for a totally stress-free experience.  Call us today if you have any more questions.

What Makes 3M Clear Aligners Different

Beyond convenience, ease of treatment, and communication, there are additional reasons to choose 3M clear aligners in Vienna, VA, especially given what sets this system apart.

  • 3M Clarity Combination Treatment: Combination therapy as warranted
