Clear Aligners in Oakville — Your Path to a Confident, Camera-Ready Smile
Straighten Your Teeth — Brackets and Wires Not Required
Classic braces have this way of completely turning your life upside down. How you eat, how you brush your teeth, even how you smile when getting your picture taken! In Oakville, however, clear braces at Sol Dental turn all of those expectations around — asking virtually nothing of you but the desire for straight teeth. From comprehensive digital impressions to ongoing patient consultations to a specially tailored retainer at the end of the treatment, you won’t be disappointed.

Are You a Candidate?
- Clear aligners are capable of dealing with many problems, including overcrowding, gaps, overbites, underbites, crossbites, open bites, and even bite correction after wearing traditional braces that have now shifted out of place due to the passage of time. It should be noted that clear braces may not be ideal in cases where there are more serious bite issues or when additional dental treatments are required before proceeding.
How Clear Aligner Therapy Works

- Smile Preview — See a digital simulation of your final result before you approve anything.
- Custom Aligners Crafted — A full series, milled to shift your teeth in tiny, comfortable increments.
- Wear & Switch — 20–22 hours a day, swapping trays every 1–2 weeks.
- Quick Check-ins — We see you every 6–8 weeks to make sure everything’s tracking the way it should.
- Retention for Life — A custom retainer locks in your new smile so it stays put.
How Long Does Treatment Take?
Most of our Oakville patients wrap up in 6 to 18 months, though it really depends on what we’re working with:
- Mild cases: 4–8 months
- Moderate cases: 9–14 months
- Complex cases: 15–24 months
The good news? You’ll usually see noticeable progress within the first 4–6 weeks — and that little bit of momentum tends to make the rest of the journey a lot easier to stick with.
