The announcement is in line with the practice's commitment to providing high-quality, state-of-the-art orthodontic care for aesthetic and therapeutic reasons for patients in Federal Way and beyond, including those in Edgewood, Fife, Fife Heights, Lakeland, Auburn, Northeast Tacoma, Kent, Browns Point, Milton, Pacific, and Algona.

While braces are typically associated with children and teenagers, adults, especially those with mild malocclusions, can straighten their misaligned teeth without wearing brackets and wires. To achieve this, Dr. Sean Liu of Sean Liu Orthodontics uses clear aligners to discreetly correct patients' malocclusions.

Clear aligners, as the orthodontist notes, are made from transparent plastic trays that fit snugly on the teeth. The treatment consists of different sets of aligner trays that map the desired smile the patient wants to achieve and, when worn, apply a persistent gentle force to move and shift the teeth into position.

With Invisalign, Dr. Liu can correct crowded teeth, resolve bite issues like deep bites, crossbites, underbites, and reverse bites, as well as address alignment problems. Patients typically wear the clear aligner for at least 22 hours each day unless eating, drinking, brushing, or flossing. Each set can be worn for two to three weeks and then replaced with a new one until the treatment is complete.

For more severe cases where clear aligners may not be very effective, the dentist recommends metal braces or a hybrid alternative for the best outcome.

"I went to see Dr. Liu for aligners based on a referral from my dentist. I was pleased with Dr. Liu and his professional, caring demeanor, along with all of his staff. I was always treated warmly, with efficiency and honesty," one client recently remarked. "I am thrilled with the outcome of my teeth, and I think it is one of the best things I have done for myself. Would refer Dr. Liu's office to anyone interested in orthodontic work."
