Clear Aligners & Invisible Braces in Beirut, Lebanon

CLEAR ALIGNERS

What Are Clear Aligners?

Clear aligners are a modern, discreet way to straighten teeth without metal brackets or wires. At Khoury Dental Clinic in Beirut, Lebanon, we offer expert orthodontic treatment using advanced aligner systems to help you achieve a healthier, more confident smile — without anyone noticing you’re wearing braces.

How do clear aligners work?

Clear aligners work by applying gentle, controlled pressure to move your teeth step by step into the right position. They come as a series of custom-made, transparent trays that you wear over your teeth. Each set of aligners is slightly different from the previous one, and you change them every one to two weeks. Over time, the teeth gradually shift according to the treatment plan we create with digital software.

How is the clear aligner study done ?

Before starting your clear aligner treatment, we need to do a complete and detailed study of your teeth. At Khoury Dental Clinic, this process begins with a 3D digital scan of your mouth — no messy impressions. We also take photos and, if needed, X-rays to fully understand your bite and tooth alignment.

These records are then used in specialized orthodontic software to simulate your treatment and tooth movement step by step. This digital study helps us plan your case accurately, estimate the number of aligners you will need, and show you how your teeth will look after treatment — even before we start. It’s only after this study that we can determine how long your treatment will take and give you the exact cost.

FAQ about Aligners ? We’ve got you covered.

Do clear aligners really work as well as braces?

Yes, clear aligners are very effective in many orthodontic cases — especially for mild to moderate crowding, spacing, or bite issues. They work by gradually shifting your teeth using a custom-made series of transparent trays. The key to success is wearing them consistently, usually 20 to 22 hours per day. While traditional braces may still be recommended for more complex cases, clear aligners offer excellent results for most patients, with the added benefit of being nearly invisible and fully removable. At Khoury Dental Clinic in Beirut, we’ll help you choose the best option based on your specific case.

How long does aligner treatment take?

The duration of aligner treatment varies depending on how complex your case is. Some people finish in as little as 6 months, while others may need 12 to 18 months. The more consistently you wear your aligners, the faster and more predictable the results will be.

What happens if I don’t wear my aligners enough?

Aligners must be worn for 20 to 22 hours per day to work properly. If you don’t wear them enough, your teeth may not move as planned, your treatment may take longer, or you might even need to restart with new aligners. Skipping days or wearing them inconsistently reduces their effectiveness. That’s why our team will guide and motivate you throughout the process to stay on track and get the best results.

How much do aligners cost ?

The cost of clear aligners depends entirely on your specific case. It’s not possible to give an accurate price without first doing a proper digital study. The final cost will depend on how many trays you’ll need and how complex your treatment is. That’s why, at Khoury Dental Clinic, we begin by taking a digital impression and analyzing your case with specialized software. This allows us to create a full treatment plan and determine the exact number of aligners needed — only then can we provide you with a clear and final cost. Every case is unique, and we want to make sure you receive the right treatment plan from the start.
