Cary & Clayton | Clear Aligners

Clear aligner therapy at McNutt Orthodontics offers a modern, inconspicuous way to perfect your smile without traditional metal braces. Because of their transparency and convenience, these aligners provide an appealing alternative for both adults and teens.

Dr. Matthew utilizes sophisticated software to map out your entire treatment journey. You can visualize every step of your tooth alignment process in 3D digital reality. Our personalized approach helps gradually relocate your teeth into their ideal positions.

The aligners are virtually invisible. Patients progress through their custom series of aligners, changing to a new set every seven to 14 days, as recommended by Dr. Matthew, to steadily guide your teeth into place. For optimal results, our team recommends wearing your aligners for approximately 22 hours daily.

Cary & Clayton Braces & Clear Aligner
Hybrid Treatment

We offer creative solutions, such as hybrid treatment that combines using braces and clear aligners during your treatment journey. Some types of difficult tooth movement are best achieved with braces. As soon as these difficult movements are complete we transition the patient into clear aligners to finish the treatment. Another strategy we often use is clear aligners for the top teeth, while using braces for the bottom due to complex crowding of lower front teeth.

Dr. Matthew McNutt is renowned for crafting personalized treatment strategies for every individual who walks through our doors. During your free consultation at McNutt Orthodontics in Clayton in Cary, our dedicated team will show you why so many families trust our Tooth Mover Team. We'll customize your treatment, whether it involves braces or clear aligner therapy.
