Your Orthodontic Treatment Could Be Invisible!

Did you know that we can help teens and adults with an orthodontic treatment option that is practically invisible? Not only that, but this system is removable and offers results in a shorter time frame than braces! In today’s blog, your Prairie Village, KS, dentist talks about invisible orthodontic treatment.

The Need for Orthodontic Treatment

When do you need to consider orthodontic treatment? We recommend this for people who have crooked, crowded, and overlapping teeth. Poor alignment has an obvious impact on your appearance, and could lead to issues with your confidence levels. But did you know your overall oral health could suffer too? For example, you could have a higher risk of tooth decay and gum disease, as thorough brushing and flossing could be more difficult. The pressure on your jaw joints from bite imbalance due to misalignment could leave you vulnerable to TMJ disorder and bruxism (teeth grinding). But we can help, and not only that, we can do so without the need for metal braces!

Creating Clear Aligners

Instead of metal brackets and wires, we will use orthodontic clear aligners to shift your teeth into proper position, so you have a healthier and more attractive smile. To begin, we will examine your smile and take detailed digital images of your bite from multiple angles. Doing so allows our team to create 3D impressions that we send to experts, who will create a series of aligners from clear and BPA-free plastic materials. When your aligners are ready, you can start your clear orthodontic treatment.

Helping You Correct Your Smile

When your aligners are ready, you will begin by wearing a set from the series for about two weeks, usually around 20 to 23 hours a day. The process helps begin shifting your smile, and you wear each set from the series for the same amount of time, with even results possible in as little as one year. For some, this could be half the time that braces would require! Being removable also means you can take them out so no need to alter how you eat. You could also enjoy an easier time brushing and flossing your teeth.

If you have any questions about how we treat your uneven smile with clear and comfortable plastic aligners instead of braces, then reach out to our team today to get started. We want to help you smile with confidence again, and feel great about your appearance! You also have time to see us and use your remaining 2025 dental insurance benefits and any leftover health savings account funds before they are gone!
