Aligners vs. Braces: Comparing Options for a Straight Smile with Dr. German

Care Experts with CareCredit

Wondering if clear aligners or traditional braces are better for straightening your teeth? Our hosts, Melissa and Selah, compare both options with orthodontist Dr. German. They explore how clear aligners offer a nearly invisible, faster solution and even double as jaw cushions (perfect for clenchers and grinders - we feel your pain). While traditional braces provide tried-and-true results, are ideal for the forgetful (you can’t lose them when they’re attached to your teeth), and can even be placed on the back of your teeth. When it comes time to decide, Dr. German recommends choosing the option that ensures the best lifelong smile. Listen now to discover which option can give you the confidence and opportunity that comes with a great smile!
