How CSO Clear Aligners Work

CSO Clear aligners use a series of custom-made, clear plastic trays to gradually shift your teeth into the desired position. We use advanced 3D scanning technology to create a precise digital model of your teeth and design your aligners, with no messy impressions. Each set is worn for about two weeks before you move on to the next one in the series.

Because the clear plastic is virtually invisible, CSO Clear is a popular choice for adults and teens who are self-conscious about wearing traditional braces. And since the aligners are removable, you can eat, drink, brush, and floss without restrictions.

Benefits of CSO Clear

Made in Our Own Lab
We make CSO Clear right here in our own lab, so you can start your journey toward a new smile sooner, sometimes as early as the next day.
Targeted, Affordable Treatment
CSO Clear is an excellent option for patients who want noticeable improvement without committing to full comprehensive treatment, with a fast, convenient, and cost-effective path to a beautiful smile.
Shorter Treatment, Fewer Visits
Average CSO Clear treatment time is less than six months, and most cases need only a few office visits along the way.
Local Doctors You Can Trust
Cosse & Silmon Orthodontics has treated patients with in-house clear aligners for over a decade. Your treatment is provided by our own local orthodontists, not a mail-order company.
Free Exam, X-rays, and 3D Scan
Your first visit includes a free exam with X-rays and a 3D scan, and you’ll get to see your 3D smile simulation at that first appointment.

Find the Treatment That’s Right for You

CSO Clear offers four levels to customize your beautiful smile.

At your New Patient Appointment, our doctors will walk you through your options, listen to what matters most to you, and design a treatment plan that fits your goals, lifestyle, and timeline. However simple or complex your case may be, your treatment is thoughtfully tailored to you.

Level 1: Just That One Tooth!

A focused touch-up for a small concern that has been bothering you.

Level 2: Look Better in a Selfie!

A smile upgrade you’ll notice on camera, on Zoom, and when you “accidentally” open the front-facing lens.

Level 3: Let’s Get This Straight...

Addresses multiple concerns, smooths out imperfections, and improves inconsistencies.

Level 4: Things Are Getting Interesting.

Broader alignment that improves how your teeth look and work together, creating a healthier, more balanced smile.

How to Get Started with CSO Clear

Book a Free Scan and Evaluation

Visit our Shreveport or Bossier scan center for your free exam, X-rays, and 3D scan.

Find Out If You’re a Candidate

A doctor will review your scan and X-rays to determine whether CSO Clear is the right fit for you. Digital scans are great, but they’re no substitute for evaluating your dental health in person, and X-rays can reveal underlying problems that could affect your treatment.

Review Your Treatment Plan

We’ll present your treatment plan and your 3D smile simulation during your appointment.

Start Your Journey

Once your custom aligners are ready, you’ll come into our office and try on your first set. From there, you just watch as the dream of a new and beautiful smile comes to life!

During Treatment

  • Wear and care: Wear each set of aligners for about two weeks, removing them only to eat, brush, and floss. Proper care of your aligners is crucial to the success of your treatment.
  • Progress checkups: Our doctors will schedule regular checkups to monitor your progress and make sure your treatment stays on track.
  • Completion: Once you’ve completed your treatment plan, we’ll recommend retainers to help maintain your new smile.

CSO Clear Cost and Payment Options

We understand that affordability is a concern for many patients, which is why we strive to make clear aligner treatment accessible and affordable for everyone. We prioritize transparency and offer treatment options that meet your unique needs and preferences.

A few things can affect the cost of treatment:

  • Severity of the case: The complexity of the orthodontic issues being addressed will impact the cost of treatment.
  • Length of treatment: Longer treatment requires more aligners, which can increase the overall cost.
  • Insurance coverage: Many dental insurance plans cover clear aligner treatment, which can help offset the cost.

Cosse & Silmon offers flexible payment plans for CSO clear aligners. All plans require a one-time down payment unless paying in full. In most cases, we can customize your payment plan to meet your needs, and if you prefer to shorten your payment terms, our staff will be glad to help. We also accept many insurance plans that cover clear aligner treatment.
