Do I Need Clear Teeth Aligners?
You may need clear aligners if you have any of the following:
- Overbite
- Under bite
- Open bite
- Cross bite
- Crooked teeth
- Gapped teeth
- Crowded teeth
Clear aligners are not suitable for everyone. They are most effective in straightening teeth and correcting the above conditions when they are mild or moderate. Individuals with more severe cases may require more complex treatment.
Straighten Your Teeth with Clear Braces
If you are considering orthodontic treatment then clear teeth aligners could be a great option. Clear aligners are almost completely invisible and more comfortable to wear than metal braces. They can be worn by teens, young adults or those looking for clear adult braces.
Invisible aligners are comfortable and easy to use. They are custom-made to fit your smile, so they won’t irritate your mouth like traditional braces can.
How Do Clear Aligners Work?
Clear aligners are are made of a thin, clear plastic and customized to fit your teeth to gradually move them into the desired position. A series of aligners is created to gradually move the teeth. Each aligner is typically worn for two weeks and is designed to move the teeth by a small fraction of a millimeter.
Patients need to remove the aligners when eating and during oral hygiene routines such as brushing and flossing. The number of aligners required varies depending on each individual’s specific issue and the desired correction.
