Clear Treatment Built Around Your Life
You can work toward a straighter smile without letting braces take over your appearance or routine. CandidPro uses a series of custom, nearly invisible trays to guide teeth through a digitally planned sequence of movements.
The BlueDot Dental team provides CandidPro at BlueDot Dental in Gilbert. Your plan begins with a careful evaluation of your teeth, bite, oral health, and goals—not a generic promise based on a product name.
CandidPro aligners are smooth, removable, and designed to fit closely over your teeth. Each set is worn according to your personalized schedule before you advance to the next stage.
The removable design lets you keep eating the foods you enjoy and brush and floss without working around fixed brackets. Consistent wear is essential, however. Leaving trays out too long can slow progress and make the next set difficult to fit.
Why Patients Consider CandidPro
- Clear trays that are difficult to notice in everyday conversation
- Smooth plastic with no metal brackets or wires
- Removable appliances for meals and oral hygiene
- Digital scans instead of traditional putty impressions when appropriate
- Planned stages of movement reviewed before treatment begins
- Progress checks with our team
- Retainers designed to help protect the result
CandidPro may be a strong fit for many patients, but some complex movements are better managed with another approach. BlueDot also offers general clear aligner care and ClearCorrect, allowing you to discuss more than one path.
How CandidPro Works at BlueDot
Doctor-Directed Remote Monitoring
Between office visits, you use a small phone attachment to scan your teeth at home on a schedule our team sets. We review each scan, confirm your teeth are tracking, and tell you when to advance to the next tray. If something is off, you hear about it early instead of at your next appointment. Remote monitoring reduces routine trips to the office; it does not replace professional oversight.
Not a Mail-Order Aligner
CandidPro is different from the kits sold directly to consumers online. Your case starts with an in-person exam, X-rays, and a 3D scan in our Gilbert office, and our team designs and supervises the plan from start to finish. Gum disease, decay, or a bite problem that a mail-order company would never see gets addressed before your teeth move.
CandidPro vs. Braces vs. ClearCorrect
Compared with braces, CandidPro is removable, nearly invisible, and easier to keep clean, though braces remain more predictable for some complex rotations and bite corrections. Compared with ClearCorrect, the trays and planning are similar in concept; the main difference is CandidPro’s remote scan monitoring, which suits patients who travel, commute, or simply prefer fewer in-office check-ins. ClearCorrect is a strong choice when you would rather have every check done in the chair. Our team will help you weigh both.
Who Is a Candidate
CandidPro fits many adults and responsible teens whose adult teeth have come in and who will wear trays as directed and keep up with scans. Healthy gums and treated decay come first. Some severe bite or jaw-position cases are better managed with another approach.
Why Choose BlueDot Dental?
A Full Dental Evaluation
Healthy teeth and gums are the foundation for orthodontic movement. Our team checks for decay, gum concerns, damaged restorations, and bite factors before recommending CandidPro.
Precise Digital Records
BlueDot uses 3D scanning to create detailed records of your teeth. Those records help shape the aligners and map how movement is expected to progress.
Supervised Treatment
Clear aligners require more than receiving a box of trays. Scheduled reviews let our team evaluate fit, tooth movement, bite changes, and any areas that need refinement.
Care Beyond Alignment
General and cosmetic care are available in the same Gilbert office. When your plan includes cleanings, restoration of worn teeth, or whitening after alignment, those needs can be coordinated.
What To Expect
Comprehensive Evaluation
We discuss what you want to change, review your dental history, and examine your teeth and bite. You receive a clear recommendation about whether CandidPro fits your case.
Precision Digital Imaging
Detailed scans create a digital model of your smile. The treatment plan maps each stage of tooth movement and helps set realistic expectations for timing.
Begin Your Aligner Series
You receive your first trays along with wear, cleaning, and storage instructions. Aligners are normally removed only for meals, drinks other than water, and oral hygiene.
Progress Reviews, Refinements, And Retention
Check-ins confirm that your teeth are tracking. Some patients need refinements to fine-tune the result, and our team will explain any changes. After active treatment, retainers hold teeth in their new positions. BlueDot’s current CandidPro guidance calls for a more intensive initial period followed by long-term nighttime wear based on your individualized plan.
Questions, Answered
CandidPro FAQs
Is CandidPro Better Than Braces?
It offers clear, removable treatment with fewer food and hygiene restrictions. Traditional braces may still be more predictable for certain complex movements.
How Long Does CandidPro Take?
Many CandidPro plans fall around 12–18 months, while simpler cases may finish sooner. Your treatment estimate depends on your starting bite and goals.
Can I Eat Normally?
Yes. Remove the aligners before eating or drinking anything other than water, then clean your teeth before reinserting them.
Will CandidPro Affect My Speech?
A small change can occur when you first begin wearing trays. Most people adapt as their tongue gets used to the aligners.
Does Insurance Cover CandidPro?
Some dental plans include orthodontic benefits. Coverage varies, and BlueDot can help you review available information and financing options.
What If I Lose a Tray?
Call us the same day. Depending on where you are in the series, our team may have you go back to your previous tray, move to the next one a little early, or order a replacement. Keep a tray in your mouth so your teeth do not drift while you wait, and store trays in their case whenever they are out to avoid losing another.
