The Easy Way Toward Perfectly Aligned Teeth
Clear aligners are an excellent alternative to traditional braces, designed to gradually move your teeth into their proper position using gentle pressure. One of the most appealing aspects of this orthodontic treatment is the absence of wires and brackets.
Exploring Your Options
Are You a Candidate for Clear Aligners?
If you’re an adult or teen concerned about the appearance of traditional braces, clear aligners provide the perfect solution. Nearly invisible and easy to clean, they can be removed for eating, brushing, flossing, or during short social gatherings.
These discreet aligners allow you to maintain your routine with minimal discomfort. However, for more severe cases, traditional braces may be a more appropriate treatment option.
Clear orthodontic aligners are typically recommended for patients with mild to moderate crowding or minor spacing issues. Those with severe crowding, spacing, or bite problems may require a more complex treatment approach.
Correcting More Than Just Alignment
Clear Aligners Help Fix Issues Like:
- Overlapping or crowded teeth
- Overbites
- Underbites
- Diastema (small or large gaps between teeth)
- Open bites, a rare type of malocclusion
