Introduction

Choosing the right orthodontic treatment is crucial to achieving that perfect smile. At Ortho South, led by Dr. Brandon Boggan and Dr. Zehra Syed, we are proud to introduce SHIFT Aligners™—the latest innovation in clear aligner technology transforming smiles across Pelham and Calera, Alabama. Our practice is renowned for being Alabama's Most Experienced Aligner Provider, and we are here to help you discover how SHIFT Aligners™ can give you the smile you've always dreamed of.


What Are SHIFT Aligners™?

SHIFT Aligners™ are a type of clear aligner designed to correct a range of orthodontic issues, from mild to moderate cases of crowding and spacing to more complex bite problems. These aligners are custom-made for each patient using advanced digital technology, ensuring a snug fit that gently shifts your teeth into the desired position over time. Unlike traditional metal braces, SHIFT Aligners™ are virtually invisible, making them an appealing option for patients of all ages who want a discreet orthodontic treatment.


Why Choose SHIFT Aligners™ Over Traditional Braces?

While traditional braces are effective, they can be uncomfortable, difficult to clean, and aesthetically unappealing. SHIFT Aligners™ offer a modern alternative that delivers the same, if not better, results without the drawbacks associated with metal braces. With SHIFT Aligners™, there are no brackets or wires to worry about, and you can enjoy the freedom of removing them whenever necessary.


How SHIFT Aligners™ Work: A 5-Step Guide

  1. Initial Consultation: During your first visit to Ortho South, we will evaluate your smile and determine if SHIFT Aligners™ are the best option for you.
  2. Customized Treatment Plan: Using state-of-the-art 3D imaging technology, we create a precise digital model of your teeth and map out the movements required to achieve your ideal smile.
  3. Aligner Fabrication: Your custom aligners are crafted from medical-grade, BPA-free plastic designed to fit comfortably over your teeth.
  4. Wearing the Aligners: Each set of aligners is worn for 1-2 weeks, depending on your treatment plan. They gently move your teeth into their desired position, step by step.
  5. Regular Check-Ups: Periodic Ortho South visits ensure your treatment is progressing as planned. If necessary, adjustments are made, and new sets of aligners are provided.


The 5 Benefits of SHIFT Aligners™

  • Invisibility: SHIFT Aligners™ are clear and virtually undetectable, allowing you to maintain confidence throughout your treatment.
  • Comfort: The aligners are made from smooth plastic, reducing the risk of irritation to your gums and cheeks.
  • Convenience: Aligners are removable, making it easy to eat, drink, brush, and floss without restrictions.
  • Effective: SHIFT Aligners™ can address a wide range of orthodontic issues, providing effective results relatively quickly.
  • Predictability: Our advanced 3D technology lets you visualize your new smile before starting treatment!
