Say goodbye to midline-shift with SmileAligners
Treatment for midline shift with clear aligners
What Midline Shift exactly is?
You can think of a line that goes through the middle of your face and teeth as the dental midline. The middle of your upper and lower teeth should line up with this axis in your face. One or both of the dental arches is off-center, which makes the teeth look out of place or uneven. This is called a midline shift.
Why Midline Shift Is Important
A midline change is more than just an issue of looks. If your upper and lower teeth aren't lined up right, you might experience uneven tooth wear, bite issues, jaw pain, and trouble eating. Misaligned teeth can lead to gum problems and a higher chance of tooth damage over time.
Fixing this can make your face look more even, make your smile look better, and help your mouth work better. A lot of people also feel more confident after treatment.
At Smile Aligners, we make treatment plans just for you.
Treatment Duration and When to Wear It
Midline shift treatment lasts for a different amount of time based on how complicated the case is. Mild cases might get better in a few months, but changes that are more complicated might need longer of treatment. Based on your treatment plan, you may wear your aligners all day or while you sleep.

Many people like how flexible and comfortable aligners are, especially those who are busy with work or their personal lives.
