You want a straighter smile without the look of traditional braces. Clear aligners make that possible with a removable, nearly invisible way to shift your teeth into place.
At A Winning Smile Orthodontics, we help teens and adults across Worthington and Columbus straighten their smiles on their own terms. Dr. Catherine Scheurer McDevitt, DMD, takes time to understand your goals before building a plan that fits your life.
A Nearly Invisible Way to Straighten Your Teeth
Clear aligners are smooth, transparent trays that fit snugly over your teeth. They’re so subtle that most people won’t even notice you’re wearing them.
That means you can smile with confidence at work, at school, and in photos throughout your treatment. No brackets, no wires, just a quiet path to a healthier smile.
If you’ve been searching for a discreet option in Worthington, clear aligners are well worth a closer look.
Clear Aligners and Invisalign at Our Practice
We offer Invisalign with an advanced, proven approach, and Dr. Catherine will ensure you get the best possible results.
Invisalign is one of the most recognized clear aligner brands available, and for good reason. It uses comfortable, removable trays and lets you preview your results before you ever begin.
In the end, you’ll get a straighter, healthier smile with a treatment that blends into your daily routine.

How Clear Aligners Work
Clear aligner treatment starts with detailed 3D imaging of your teeth. This technology maps out each small movement and lets you see your projected results before your first tray ever goes in.
From there, you receive a series of custom-made aligners. You wear each set for about two weeks, removing them only to eat, brush, and floss.
Every few weeks, you’ll visit our office so Dr. Catherine can check your progress and keep your treatment on track. Each new set gently shifts your teeth a little closer to their final position.
Most patients complete treatment in about 9 to 15 months, using somewhere between 18 and 30 aligners. Your exact plan depends on your goals and the condition of your teeth.
Everyday Benefits of Clear Aligners
- Removable: Take them out to eat your favorite foods and clean your teeth with ease.
- Virtually invisible: The clear trays blend in, so treatment stays discreet.
- Comfortable: Smooth, custom trays mean no metal brackets or wires.
- Predictable: 3D imaging lets you preview your new smile before you begin.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Clear Aligners?
Clear aligners are a great fit for many teens and adults who want a flexible, low-profile way to straighten their teeth.
They work well for a range of common concerns, including:
- Crowded or crooked teeth
- Gaps and spacing between teeth
- Mild to moderate bite issues
Because aligners are removable, they’re a good match for patients who are ready to wear their trays consistently throughout the day. During your free consultation, Dr. Catherine will complete a thorough evaluation to help you decide if clear aligners are right for your goals.

Frequently Asked Questions About Clear Aligners
Q: What's the difference between clear aligners and Invisalign?
A: Invisalign is a specific brand of clear aligners. We offer both Invisalign and Clarity aligners from 3M, and both use the same removable, virtually invisible approach to straighten your teeth. During your consultation, Dr. Catherine will recommend the system that fits your smile best.
Q: How long does clear aligner treatment take?
A: Most patients complete treatment in about 9 to 15 months, using roughly 18 to 30 aligners along the way. Every smile is different, so Dr. Catherine will give you a personalized timeline based on your specific needs.
Q: How many hours a day do I need to wear my aligners?
A: For the best results, you’ll typically wear your aligners 20 to 22 hours a day, removing them only to eat, drink, and clean your teeth. Consistent wear is what keeps your treatment on schedule.
Q: Are clear aligners more comfortable than braces?
A: Many patients find clear aligners comfortable since there are no metal brackets or wires. The smooth, custom trays fit snugly over your teeth, and you can remove them whenever you eat or brush.
Q: Where can I get Invisalign in Worthington, Ohio?
A: You can get Invisalign® clear aligners at A Winning Smile Orthodontics, 7100 N High St #105 in Worthington, from Dr. Catherine Scheurer McDevitt, DMD. She is an orthodontic specialist who completed a three-year orthodontic residency at The Ohio State University, and she has cared for patients in Worthington and Columbus for over 20 years. The office is a short drive for adults in Clintonville, Linworth, Powell and Westerville. Clarity Aligners are also available if they are a better fit for your case.
Q: Will I see the same orthodontist at every clear aligner visit?
A: Yes. Dr. McDevitt runs a solo private practice, so the orthodontist who plans your aligners is the same one who checks your progress at every appointment. Here’s the thing: around Columbus, with so many multi-doctor groups and high-volume centers, that is not a given. Patients here say they never feel lost in a large pool of patients.
Q: How much do clear aligners cost in Worthington?
A: Your exact clear aligner cost is set at your first visit, after Dr. McDevitt has examined your teeth and built your plan, and you get it before you decide anything. The price follows how much your teeth need to move, so any quote given without an exam is only a guess. You’ll see the timeline, the risks, and the full cost laid out, often with more than one payment scenario calculated for you. No pressure and no surprises.
Q: Do you offer payment plans for clear aligners?
A: We do, with several payment options and plans calculated around your budget, even if you’re paying fully out of pocket. One college student called the payment plan “a lifesaver.”
Q: What happens at my first clear aligner visit in Worthington?
A: You meet Dr. McDevitt, she looks closely at your teeth and bite, and she tells you plainly what she sees and what she recommends. You leave with the plan, the timeline and the exact cost in front of you. Look, orthodontic treatment is a big commitment, and her advice is simple: get a lot of information before you decide.
