Same-week appointments available | Serving Greenwood Village, CO
Straightening your teeth does not have to mean metal brackets, monthly wire tightening appointments, or a mouth full of hardware. Clear aligner therapy has become one of the most popular orthodontic options for adults and teens because it fits into a normal life. You eat what you want, clean your teeth normally, and most people around you never notice you are in treatment. What actually determines your outcome, though, is not which brand of trays you wear. It is the quality of the clinical thinking behind your treatment plan.
At Sopris Smiles, we offer clear aligner therapy through Clarity aligners and our BeSmyle collaboration with Dr. Matt Stout, a board-certified orthodontist. This partnership is what sets our approach apart from a standard general dental office. Patients near Greenwood Village receive a treatment plan informed by specialist-level oversight, not just a set of trays printed from a digital scan. Our dentist in Greenwood Village page explains the broader scope of care we provide for patients in the area.
Clear aligner therapy uses a series of custom-made, removable plastic trays that gradually move your teeth into their desired positions. Each set is worn for roughly one to two weeks before you advance to the next. Because the trays are removable, eating, brushing, and flossing stay exactly the same throughout treatment.
We take CBCT 3D scans and digital impressions to build a precise picture of your teeth, bite, and jaw, the foundation for a treatment plan built around your actual anatomy.
Dr. Matt Stout, a board-certified orthodontist, reviews your treatment plan through our BeSmyle collaboration, adding specialist-level oversight that most general dental offices do not offer.
Your Clarity aligner trays are precision-fabricated from your digital impressions. We walk you through wearing instructions and what to expect as treatment progresses.
You advance through tray sets every 1 to 2 weeks. Periodic check-in appointments let us monitor movement and make any adjustments needed to stay on track.
Once treatment is complete, typically 12 to 18 months, we fit you with retainers to hold your results long-term.
A 2023 systematic review published in PubMed Central found that clear aligner therapy can produce clinically acceptable outcomes comparable to traditional fixed appliances, particularly when case selection and treatment planning are carefully performed. That last detail is exactly where our BeSmyle program adds value.
Most general dentists who offer clear aligner therapy manage the entire process themselves. At Sopris Smiles, Dr. Golnaz Samimifar collaborates directly with Dr. Matt Stout through BeSmyle, a program that brings board-certified orthodontic knowledge to general dental aligner cases. Dr. Stout reviews treatment plans, consults on complex tooth movements, and provides specialist oversight that a single provider working alone cannot replicate.
This matters most for patients with crowding, spacing irregularities, or bite issues that require careful biomechanical planning. When those cases come in, the partnership means you have a specialist genuinely involved in your outcome. You can learn more about the technology we use to support accurate diagnostics and precise treatment planning.
Advanced dental technology for efficient, comfortable treatments with same-day results and faster healing.
Clarity aligners are the system we use at Sopris Smiles to deliver clear aligner therapy. They’re designed with patient comfort in mind, using smooth, clear plastic that fits closely to the teeth. As with any well-designed, clear aligner system, the trays are removable, virtually invisible while worn, and far gentler on the soft tissues in your mouth than traditional wire-and-bracket systems.
The trays are fabricated from detailed digital impressions, which means each one is precisely matched to your anatomy at that stage of treatment. Before you begin, we can walk you through a digital preview of your projected outcome, so you have a clear picture of where treatment is headed. These qualities make Clarity aligners a practical, confidence-building choice for patients who want effective orthodontic care without disrupting their routines. You can also read about what patients say about treatment at our practice to get a sense of what the experience is like.
Clear aligner therapy works well for a wide range of alignment concerns. During your consultation, we use CBCT 3D imaging and digital impressions to evaluate whether aligners are the right fit for your specific anatomy and goals.
Mild to moderate crowding, spacing issues, and certain bite problems such as overbites, underbites, and crossbites.
Severe skeletal discrepancies or complex bite issues may respond better to traditional orthodontics. Dr. Golnaz is always direct about what delivers the best result for your specific teeth.
For patients with broader cosmetic goals, CEREC same-day crowns and other restorative options can complement aligner treatment once alignment is complete.
No two cases are the same, and we never assume. Every evaluation is built on your actual scans and anatomy, not a generic template. You can also explore how our cosmetic dentistry for Greenwood Village patients can round out your care.

BeSmyle is a collaboration between Sopris Smiles and Dr. Matt Stout, a board-certified orthodontist. Dr. Stout reviews treatment plans and consults on complex tooth movements, providing specialist-level oversight that most general dental offices do not offer. This matters most for patients with significant crowding, spacing issues, or bite concerns that require careful biomechanical planning.
Clear aligner therapy is available for both adults and teens. In fact, many adults choose clear aligners specifically because they are discreet and fit into professional routines without drawing attention. Dr. Golnaz evaluates each patient individually, regardless of age, to determine whether aligners are the right fit.
Some dental insurance plans include orthodontic benefits that may apply to clear aligner therapy. Coverage varies significantly by plan. Our team reviews your benefits before treatment begins and walks you through your estimated out-of-pocket costs clearly so there are no surprises.
Once your teeth have reached their final positions, we fit you with retainers to maintain the results long-term. Retainers are a critical part of the process. Without them, teeth have a natural tendency to shift back toward their original positions over time. Dr. Golnaz walks you through the retention plan before treatment even starts so you know exactly what to expect.
