Providing Treatment With Clear Aligners

Did you know that we can offer orthodontic treatment with clear aligners instead of metal braces? With this option, we can offer a nearly invisible solution to crooked, crowded, and overlapping teeth. In today’s blog, your Prairie Village, KS, dentist talks about how we provide this treatment and help correct your smile.

The Impact of Poor Alignment

How does an uneven smile cause trouble for your smile? Obviously, there are impacts on your appearance that could be a source of embarrassment. But did you know that uneven teeth provide places for food and drink particles to become trapped, even if you brush and floss? This could increase the risk of tooth decay and infection, and even issues like gum disease. There could also be pressure on your bite, which leads to painful complications like TMJ disorder and even chronic teeth grinding (bruxism). But our team can help with custom and clear aligners, which correct your uneven teeth!

Starting Your Treatment

If you want to obtain an even smile, then contact our team to schedule an initial consultation! We will take a close look at your smile with advanced imaging technology, so we can understand the cause and severity of your misalignment. From there, we can decide if our clear aligner system is best for you. If so, then our team will use the images and impressions we take in a lab setting to design and craft our custom orthodontics. When they are ready, you can start your treatment!

Straightening Smiles with Orthodontic Clear Aligners

The treatment process is a simple one. From a series of plastic aligners, you will wear a set for about 20 to 23 hours a day on average, over a period of about two weeks. You then start wearing the next set in the series to continue the process, repeating this until you see optimal results, which for some could take as little as one year. During treatment, being removable means you can take out your orthodontics before meals instead of altering your diet, and can take them out prior to brushing and flossing your teeth to help protect your overall oral health. They are simple to use and clean, and they can travel with you too and remain practically invisible when you wear them, a major benefit for our teen and adult patients.

If you have any questions about how we help straighten smiles with orthodontic clear aligners, then reach out to our team to learn more and get started! You deserve an even smile, and want to start your journey to one today!
