Candid Clear Aligners in Mercer Island, WA

What Are Candid Aligners?

Candid aligners are clear, removable trays customized to fit your teeth. Unlike many mail-order brands, Candid aligners are supervised by your dentist and monitored remotely with smart technology.

They can treat mild to moderate cases of:

Crowded or crooked teeth
Gaps between teeth
Overbites or underbites
Relapsed orthodontic cases

All monitoring is overseen by Dr. Shiotsu through CandidMonitoring™, which uses AI and clinician review to track your progress from the comfort of home.
