Both traditional metal braces and aligners that are made to be both clear and removable can help you take care of your uneven smile. With either of these options, you can look forward to improvements as teeth gradually enjoy improved alignment. However, by choosing Orthodontic Clear Aligners, you choose a treatment solution that fixes gaps, overlaps, and other spacing issues while limiting concerns about how care will impact your daily life. The discreet nature of their clear appearance makes patients less likely to receive unwanted attention during social and professional outings. This arrangement also makes your daily routine easier to preserve, as you will not have to worry about the appliances affecting how you eat or clean your teeth.
The beginning of your clear aligner treatment will occur after you go through important preparatory steps. These steps include thorough measurements of your teeth and oral structures that tell us what you need from your appliances and your corrective work. Once they are ready, you will receive a set of clear appliances that will be worn throughout your adjustment. Each is a step in a larger plan to completely fix teeth that are not properly aligned. You should keep your designated aligner in place throughout the day, but know that you can freely remove it when it is time for you to eat or clean your teeth.
After finishing treatment with your aligners, you can look forward to impressive cosmetic changes. You can also enjoy benefits such as better bite function, which means your risk for TMJ disorder is reduced. Completing care also means fixing awkward overlaps between teeth that will make it difficult to effectively clean portions of the structure where bacteria are present.
