CandidPro® Clear AlignersVancouver, WA

Digital Smile Mapping & iTero® Scanning

A great aligner experience starts with an accurate digital foundation. Instead of messy impressions, we use iTero scanning to create a detailed 3D model of your teeth and bite. This scan becomes the blueprint for your treatment plan, helping us evaluate how your teeth fit together, where crowding or spacing exists, and what movements are needed to reach your goal.

Digital smile mapping allows us to plan with clarity and precision. It also helps you understand your starting point and what your smile is working toward. Because the scan is highly detailed, it supports more predictable aligner fabrication and helps us track progress over time with confidence.

Key advantages of digital scanning include:

• Comfort: Improved by avoiding traditional impression materials.
• Accuracy: Strengthened with a detailed 3D model of your teeth and bite.
• Speed: Supported with a streamlined workflow for planning and aligner creation.
• Clarity: Enhanced with visuals that help you understand recommended tooth movement.

Personalized CandidPro® Treatment Planning

No two smiles move the same way, which is why aligner therapy should never be generic. CandidPro treatment planning is customized to your goals, your current alignment, and the health of your teeth and gums. We evaluate your bite, spacing, crowding, and functional needs, then map out a step-by-step plan designed to guide your teeth into better positions.

Your plan considers more than aesthetics. Proper alignment can make it easier to clean between teeth, reduce areas where plaque tends to accumulate, and support a more stable bite. If there are any concerns that need attention before aligners, such as gum inflammation or untreated decay, we will address those first to help protect your results.

Clear Aligners For Adults & Busy Lifestyles

Many adults want straighter teeth but do not want the look or upkeep of traditional braces. CandidPro clear aligners are designed to fit around busy schedules, social events, and professional settings. The aligners are clear and low-profile, so most people will not notice them during everyday interactions.

Because aligners are removable, you can continue enjoying the foods you like and maintain your regular brushing and flossing routine without working around brackets. The process is also structured to be practical for adults who value convenience and predictability.

Aligners can be a strong option for adults who want:

• Discretion: Maintained with a clear, subtle appearance.
• Flexibility: Supported by a removable design for meals and daily hygiene.
• Efficiency: Improved with a plan built around predictable, staged movement.
• Confidence: Strengthened by a treatment option that fits professional and social life.

Predictable Tooth Movement With Digital Monitoring

One of the benefits of CandidPro is the focus on digital oversight and progress tracking. As your teeth shift, we monitor your progress to make sure your treatment stays on course. This helps improve predictability and allows adjustments when needed.

Digital monitoring supports consistent momentum and can reduce the uncertainty that sometimes comes with orthodontic care. Our team will guide you on wear time, aligner changes, and habits that help you stay on track, so your results come together as smoothly as possible. Keeping aligners in as directed is a big part of success, and we help you understand how to make that realistic in your day-to-day routine.

CandidPro® Vs. Traditional Orthodontic Options

Clear aligners and traditional braces can both improve alignment, but the experience is often very different. Braces rely on brackets and wires that apply continuous force and require regular adjustments. Clear aligners use a series of custom trays that apply gentle pressure in stages, guiding movement with a planned sequence.

CandidPro can be a great fit for many mild to moderate alignment concerns, especially for adults who prefer a removable and discreet option. In some more complex cases, traditional orthodontics may be recommended instead. We will explain your options clearly and help you choose the approach that aligns with your goals, timeline, and oral health needs.

Comfort, Convenience, & Removable Design Benefits

Comfort and convenience are major reasons patients choose clear aligners. Because aligners are smooth and custom-fit, many people find them easier on the mouth than brackets and wires. The removable design also makes daily routines simpler.

CandidPro aligners support an everyday-friendly experience through features like:

• Removability: Improved by the ability to take aligners out for meals and cleaning.
• Hygiene: Supported by easier brushing and flossing without fixed appliances.
• Diet flexibility: Maintained by avoiding food restrictions often associated with braces.
• Comfort: Enhanced with smooth trays that reduce irritation in many cases.

You may feel pressure when switching to a new set of aligners, which is normal and usually temporary. We will share tips for managing early tenderness and help you understand what to expect throughout treatment.

Retainers & Long-Term Smile Stability

Finishing aligner therapy is a big milestone, but retention is what protects your results. Teeth naturally want to shift over time, which is why retainers are essential for long-term stability. After treatment, we guide you through retainer options and wear recommendations so your smile stays aligned.

Long-term stability is supported by consistent retainer use and routine dental care. We also consider habits like clenching and grinding, which may influence retention strategies. If you have had orthodontic relapse in the past, we will take that into account while building a plan to help maintain your new smile.

If you are considering clear aligners in Vancouver, WA, we can help you understand what treatment could look like, what your timeline may be, and how to keep your results stable long after your final aligner.
