Clear Braces Without Metal Brackets or Wires

Clear aligners straighten teeth with a series of custom, nearly invisible trays that you swap out every one to two weeks. You remove them to eat, brush and floss, so there are no food restrictions and no wires to tighten. For busy professionals in Wayne or Franklin Lakes and students in Mahwah or Wyckoff, aligners fit around work, school and sports far more easily than traditional braces.

Why We Use SimplyClear Clear Aligners

SimplyClear is a clear aligner system designed by orthodontists for use in general dental practices, and it is the aligner Dr. Bucher uses for orthodontic treatment. Each tray is made from a flexible, comfortable material that is still strong enough to move teeth predictably. Every SimplyClear treatment plan is reviewed with orthodontist-led clinical support, so you get the convenience of your family dentist in Oakland with specialist-level planning behind the scenes.

Patients choose SimplyClear because it offers:

  • A discreet, comfortable fit with no brackets or wires
  • Digital scans instead of messy impressions
  • A 3D preview of your expected result before you commit
  • Orthodontist-reviewed treatment plans
  • Treatment, check-ups and cleanings in one familiar Oakland office
  • Often a more affordable option than other name-brand aligners

What SimplyClear Can Fix

SimplyClear aligners can correct most common alignment concerns in adults and teens, including:

  • Crowded teeth
  • Spacing and gaps
  • Crooked or rotated teeth
  • Teeth that shifted after braces (orthodontic relapse)
  • Mild to moderate overbite, underbite and crossbite, depending on your case

During your consultation, Dr. Bucher will evaluate your teeth and bite and tell you clearly whether SimplyClear is right for you. If your case needs a different approach, such as referral to an orthodontist, we will explain why.

SimplyClear vs. Invisalign – Looking for an Invisalign Alternative in Bergen County?

Our Orthodontic Treatment Process

How SimplyClear Treatment Works in Our Oakland Office

SimplyClear treatment follows four steps: consultation and scan, a custom 3D plan, wearing your aligners, and regular progress check-ups.

Consultation and Digital Scan

Your visit starts with an exam and a conversation about what you want to change. We take a quick digital scan of your teeth instead of goopy impressions, so your plan is built on precise data.

Your Custom 3D Treatment Plan

Dr. Bucher maps each stage of tooth movement, with orthodontist-supported review of every SimplyClear case. You will see a 3D preview of your projected result and an estimated timeline before you begin.

Wearing Your Aligners

You will return for periodic visits so we can track progress and keep your treatment moving in the right direction. If you need refinements, we will explain what that means and what to expect, in plain language.

Check-Ups and Retainers

Short progress visits keep your treatment on track; many can be paired with your regular cleaning. When your teeth reach their final position, we provide retainers to keep your new smile in place.
