What Are Solventum/3M™ Clarity™ Aligners?
Solventum/3M™ Clarity™ aligners are a series of custom-fit, removable clear aligners that gradually move your teeth into a straighter position. Made from a proprietary multi-layer material designed for quiet, comfortable wear, they offer a discreet way to correct a wide range of orthodontic issues. Like other clear aligner systems, Clarity aligners are a popular choice for adults and teens who want a less noticeable treatment option. Rebranded under Solventum (formerly 3M Dental), these aligners are available exclusively through a licensed orthodontist, and when used under expert supervision, they can produce beautiful, lasting results.
Benefits of Choosing Clarity Aligners at West Cobb Orthodontics
A Discreet, Removable Treatment Option
One of the biggest advantages of clear aligners is that they are nearly invisible. 3M Clarity aligners are transparent and fit snugly over your teeth, so most people will not even notice you are wearing them. Because they are removable, you can eat your favorite foods without restrictions and brush and floss normally. This makes them an appealing option for patients who want to maintain their lifestyle during orthodontic treatment.
Customized to Your Smile by a Board Certified Orthodontist
Dr. Reznik uses advanced digital scanning and 3D treatment planning to create a set of aligners that match your unique smile. As a Board Certified orthodontist, she brings years of specialized training to every case. She will monitor your progress at each appointment and make adjustments to keep your treatment on track. The combination of quality aligner technology and an experienced orthodontist means you get personalized care from start to finish.
Dual Aligner Options Mean More Choice for You
West Cobb Orthodontics offers both 3M Clarity aligners and Invisalign. Not every practice carries multiple aligner brands, and having that choice allows us to recommend the system that best fits your needs. Whether you are drawn to Clarity's material or Invisalign's SmartTrack technology, we can help you decide.

Book ConsultIs Clarity the Right Aligner for You?
If you have been considering straightening your teeth but have not started treatment yet, it helps to know what can happen when misalignment is left alone.
What Happens If Misalignment Goes Untreated?
Crowded or uneven teeth can lead to more than just cosmetic concerns. Over time, bite issues may cause uneven wear on your enamel, make you more prone to tooth decay in hard-to-clean areas, and even contribute to jaw discomfort. Many adults also notice that a crooked smile affects their confidence in social or professional settings. The good news is that it is never too late to explore your options. A complimentary consultation with Dr. Reznik is a no-pressure first step toward a healthier smile. She will take the time to listen to your concerns and explain what treatment could look like for you.
