What Are Clear Aligners?
Clear aligners have transformed the orthodontics industry by offering a nearly invisible alternative to traditional braces. Made from transparent, medical-grade plastic, these custom-designed trays fit snugly over your teeth, gently moving them into proper alignment. Over the past decade, clear aligners have become incredibly popular among teens and adults who desire a more discreet method of straightening their teeth. Clear aligners are effective in treating a variety of orthodontic issues, from minor tooth movement to more complex cases, making them a versatile option for those seeking a comfortable, convenient, and aesthetically pleasing solution to achieving a straighter smile.
How Clear Aligners Work
Clear aligners work by applying gentle, continuous pressure to gradually shift your teeth into the desired position. The process begins with a comprehensive examination, where Dr. Mahaffey or Dr. Linkous will take digital scans and x-rays to create a precise 3D model of your teeth. This model is used to design a series of custom aligners, each slightly different from the last, to guide your teeth through a series of precise movements. You’ll wear each set of aligners for about one to two weeks before progressing to the next set. The aligners should be worn for 20 to 22 hours a day, only being removed for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing. Regular check-ups with our team will ensure your treatment is progressing as planned, with adjustments made as needed to achieve the best possible results.
Advantages of Choosing Clear Aligners
Clear aligners offer several benefits that make them a preferred choice for orthodontic treatment:
Virtually Invisible
Clear aligners are nearly invisible, allowing you to straighten your teeth without anyone noticing.
Comfortable Fit
Made from smooth, custom-fit plastic, aligners are comfortable to wear and gentle on your mouth.
Removable
You can easily remove the aligners for meals and oral hygiene, maintaining your normal routine without restrictions.
Predictable Results
Each aligner is custom-designed to move your teeth in a precise, controlled manner, ensuring effective and predictable results.
Fewer Office Visits
With no need for frequent adjustments, clear aligners allow for a more flexible treatment schedule.
