Clear Aligner Therapy: Am I a Candidate for a Straighter Smile in Gainesville?

February 4, 2026

If the idea of straightening your teeth without brackets or wires sounds too good to be true, we’ve got good news. It’s very real, and it’s changing smiles every day. Clear aligner therapy has become a go-to option for patients who want a more confident smile without the traditional drawbacks of metal braces. At Gainesville Dentistry Co., we’re here to help you determine if you’re the right fit for this game-changing solution, blending comfort, technology, and esthetics under one roof.

What Is Clear Aligner Therapy? And Why Is It So Popular?

Clear aligner therapy involves a series of custom-made, transparent trays that gradually move your teeth into alignment. The appeal? It’s discreet, comfortable, and frees you from the food and flossing restrictions that often come with traditional braces. Here’s why patients love clear aligners:

  • Nearly invisible design keeps your treatment private and professional
  • Removable trays allow easy eating, brushing, and flossing
  • Fewer in-office visits compared to metal braces
  • Smooth, plastic material prevents irritation inside the mouth
  • Customized movement plans ensure effective, predictable results

Are You a Candidate for Clear Aligner Therapy?

Clear aligners are versatile, but they're not for everyone. The good news? At Gainesville Dentistry Co., Dr. Greg Feldman evaluates each case using leading-edge imaging. He aligns your goals and current oral health with the best course of action. You might be a great candidate if you:

  • Have mild to moderate crowding or spacing
  • Struggle with overbite, underbite, or crossbite issues
  • Prefer a discreet orthodontic treatment option
  • Are willing to commit to wearing your aligners 20 to 22 hours per day
  • Have generally good oral health without active gum disease

Why Choose Gainesville Dentistry Co.?

We know it’s not just about straight teeth. It’s about trusting someone to guide your smile journey. That’s why patients choose Gainesville Dentistry Co. As both a Fellow and Master in the Academy of General Dentistry (FAGD/MAGD) and a Fellow in the International Congress of Oral Implantologists (ICOI), he has completed thousands of hours of post-graduate training to build his skills and dental knowledge.

That means you’re working with someone who’s not only highly trained, but also truly loves what he does. Whether you’re here for clear aligners or Botox and dermal fillers, you’ll get expert care from Dr. Feldman and our team. You’ll also benefit from:

  • 3D intraoral scanning for goop-free impressions and precise planning
  • Patient-first TEAM values for consistent, transparent care
  • On-site support for cosmetic and therapeutic treatments under one roof
  • A lighthearted yet deeply skilled team that’s easy to talk to and actually listens

What to Expect During Your Consultation

Your first visit is more relaxed and informative than any appointment you've probably had. It might even be a little fun! When you come in for a smile assessment, we’ll take digital scans, take a look at your bite, and talk through your lifestyle and goals. Dr. Feldman will walk you through your treatment options, timeline, and what kind of results you can expect. All at your pace, with zero pressure.

We thrive on communication and collaboration. Whether you’re ready to start with clear aligners right away or you’re just doing your research, we’ll give you honest insights and expert recommendations that make sense for you.
