Invisible Aligners
What are invisible aligners?
Invisible aligners are constructed from transparent and durable plastic, making them nearly invisible when worn. A significant advantage of these aligners is that they are removable, setting them apart from other orthodontic options.
How does clear aligners work?
- Initial Assessment: Dentists take mouth impressions, models, and dental radiographs to obtain precise measurements and create a treatment plan.
- Custom Fabrication: Clear aligners are custom-made based on the measurements and treatment plan to address specific dental issues.
- Divided Treatment: The treatment is divided into multiple stages, with the number of aligners determined by the individual case.
- Step-by-Step Progress: The patient starts by wearing a set of aligners and progresses to new sets at regular intervals.
- Gradual Repositioning: With each new set of aligners, the teeth are gently repositioned towards the desired outcome.
- Treatment Completion: Once the teeth reach the desired position and angulation, fixed or removable retainers are used to prevent potential relapse.
Overall, clear aligners offer a discreet and effective way to address mild to moderate dental issues and achieve the desired alignment of the teeth.
