At your Prairie Village, KS, dental practice, we know that you pursue orthodontic service for both its cosmetic benefits and effect on your health. That’s why we offer a clear aligner option that takes into consideration how you look throughout the year of your treatment. Additionally, the creation of multiple aligner trays means you simply move on to the next set instead of coming into our office for constant readjustments. This helps you minimize your time in the dentist’s chair so you can get back to doing what you love most.
The esthetic effects of a straighter smile are rather attractive, but did you know orthodontics can help you preserve your oral health as well? When your teeth are evenly spaced, you have an easier time reaching the entire surface of each tooth and can fit your floss between each edge. On the other hand, when teeth are crooked or begin to crowd, you can develop pockets of plaque that hide in areas you cannot clean. Even with multiple brushing sessions per day, these pockets persist, increasing your odds of cavities and gum disease.
At your initial consultation, we will examine your smile to determine if you are a candidate for clear aligner treatment. Using modern imaging techniques, we will create a three-dimensional model of your current bite. By entering this model into our software, we can project how your smile will appear after successful correction. Moving forward, we send the model to an offsite lab where they will create a custom set of aligner trays for you to wear over the coming months.
We look forward to helping you choose a service that straightens your smile. If you would like more information about Orthodontic Clear Aligners or any other of our dental services, please contact your Prairie Village, KS dentist’s office at 913-901-8585.
