What If You Could Receive Removable Braces?

Do you have dental misalignment? If you or a family member has an uneven smile, we can help. Instead of traditional fixed braces, we can correct smiles with removable (and clear) aligners. In today’s blog, Dr. Robert M. Browne talks about correcting smiles with removable braces in Prairie Village, KS.

The Need for Our Orthodontics

When do you need to see our team to talk about orthodontic treatment? When you have crooked, crowded, or overlapping teeth, whether minor or severe, this could allow your oral health to suffer. Poor alignment means trouble brushing and flossing adequately, leaving your smile at risk for tooth decay and gum disease. The pressures on your bite could lead to TMJ disorder and bruxism (teeth grinding). You could also feel embarrassed in social situations, and this could impact how you interact with others. But we can correct your uneven smile with orthodontic clear aligners, an option great for teens and adults alike!

What Makes Them Removable?

These are removable braces, which means you can take them out. Instead of attaching metal brackets and wires to your teeth, we will take digital images of your bite from multiple angles with digital technology and experts will use them to design and craft a series of aligners, which are clear in appearance and fit over your teeth. These can be taken out before you eat, so you don’t have to change your diet. This removability also means a much easier time brushing and flossing, so you can better care for your teeth during treatment. You can even take them out for special occasions, such as graduations, job interviews, and first dates.

The Treatment Process

How will these removable aligners correct your smile? You will wear a set of them for about 20 to 23 hours a day on average, and then do so each day for about two weeks. At which point, you will then wear the next set in the series and continue this process, often seeing optimal results in as little as one year. The aligners are easy to clean and care for, and you enjoy fewer office visits too. If you have any questions about how we correct misalignment with our clear and custom aligners, or if you are ready to start the treatment process today, then reach out to our office now to learn more.
