Clear Aligners
Clear aligners can be used to treat a wide range of orthodontic cases especially on straightening teeth.
Benefits
Aesthetic appearance: Clear aligners are virtually invisible when worn, making them a popular choice for individuals who desire a discreet orthodontic treatment option. They allow you to improve your smile and correct tooth alignment without the visibility of traditional metal braces.
Removability: Clear aligners are removable, providing flexibility and convenience during treatment. You can easily remove them for eating, brushing, and flossing, allowing you to maintain good oral hygiene and enjoy your favorite foods without restrictions.
Comfort and convenience: Clear aligners are made of smooth and comfortable plastic material. They do not have sharp brackets or wires that can irritate the soft tissues of the mouth. The absence of metal components also reduces the likelihood of discomfort or soreness.
Customized and precise treatment: Clear aligners are custom-made to fit your teeth and mouth. They are designed using advanced computer technology to precisely move your teeth in a predetermined sequence. Each set of aligners is tailored to gradually shift your teeth into the desired positions, ensuring an individualized treatment plan.
Improved oral hygiene: Since clear aligners are removable, you can maintain optimal oral hygiene during treatment. You can brush and floss your teeth as you normally would, without the challenges associated with cleaning around brackets and wires. This reduces the risk of tooth decay, gum disease, and other oral health issues.
Reduced treatment time: In certain cases, clear aligners can achieve desired results faster compared to traditional braces. Advanced treatment planning and technologies, such as accelerated orthodontics, may help accelerate the movement of teeth, resulting in shorter treatment durations.
Minimal impact on daily activities: Clear aligners have a minimal impact on your daily activities, such as playing musical instruments or participating in sports. Unlike traditional braces, there are no brackets or wires that can interfere with these activities or cause discomfort.
Recommended Use
Mild to moderate crowding: Clear aligners can effectively address cases where there is mild to moderate crowding, which refers to teeth that are positioned too close together, overlapping, or rotated.
Spacing issues: Clear aligners are also suitable for cases where there are gaps or spaces between the teeth. They can help gradually close these spaces and bring the teeth into proper alignment.
Overbite: An overbite occurs when the upper front teeth overlap excessively with the lower front teeth. Clear aligners can be used to correct this bite issue by gradually repositioning the teeth and improving the bite relationship.
Underbite: In cases of underbite, where the lower front teeth protrude in front of the upper front teeth, clear aligners can be utilized to help align the teeth and correct the underbite.
Crossbite: A crossbite occurs when some of the upper teeth sit inside the lower teeth instead of outside. Clear aligners can be effective in correcting crossbites by guiding the teeth into their proper positions.
Open bite: An open bite is characterized by a gap or space between the upper and lower teeth when the jaws are closed. Clear aligners can help close the open bite by gradually moving the teeth into the correct alignment.
Mild relapse: Clear aligners can be used for cases of minor relapse, where the teeth have shifted slightly after previous orthodontic treatment. They can help bring the teeth back into alignment and correct any minor changes that have occurred.
