Clear Aligners

Clear aligners are a series of clear, removable trays that gradually straighten your teeth. They represent an alternative to metal braces for many people. Clear aligners are a great choice for people who are concerned about the appearance of their smile and want to go for an orthodontic treatment process.

Here are some of the benefits they offer:

Invisible Braces

If you have complex dental needs, traditional braces may not be right for you. For these patients, clear aligners are an excellent solution.

Clear aligners are removable and virtually invisible. Since they are molded to fit your mouth, they are very comfortable.

Clear aligners are an alternative to fixed appliances, such as traditional braces. They are ideal for patients who want to straighten their teeth discreetly.

No Food Restrictions

Unlike traditional braces, clear aligners can be removed while eating. This means you can eat whatever you want without worrying that it will get stuck in the wires or brackets. The aligners are also more comfortable than traditional braces because there are no wires or brackets to irritate the soft tissues of the mouth.

Improved Oral Health

Clear aligners are removable, so it’s easier to maintain good oral hygiene. Patients can remove their aligners to brush and floss, avoiding plaque buildup.

In addition, patients can remove their aligners for meals and special occasions, so they don’t have to feel self-conscious about the appearance of their smile.

Fewer Dentist Visits

With clear aligners, patients can expect fewer dentist visits. The aligners are removable, so you can take them out for meals, exercise, and special occasions. When it’s time to brush your teeth, you simply brush and floss before you insert your aligner.

Faster Treatment Time

Clear aligners are an excellent alternative to traditional braces, as they straighten teeth in a shorter amount of time. If worn as directed, aligners can straighten the teeth in approximately a year, depending on the severity of your case. Traditional braces require freaquent visits for tightening and wire changes, which lengthens treatment time.

Removable For Special Events

Removable aligners are perfect for special events. They can be removed for eating, drinking, and even brushing and flossing. There’s no need to change your diet or worry if food will get stuck in the aligners.
