Clear aligners are thin, removable trays custom-made to fit over your teeth and gently guide them into the proper position. Unlike traditional metal braces, these aligners are nearly undetectable, making them an ideal choice for those who want orthodontic results without drawing attention to their treatment. This innovative solution works seamlessly to correct misalignment issues without disrupting your daily life.
Smile Concerns Clear Aligners Can Correct
Wondering if clear aligners are right for your smile concerns? Invisalign® is a powerful tool for addressing a variety of common dental issues. From closing gaps between teeth and correcting mild to moderate crowding to resolving instances of overbites, underbites, and crossbites, clear aligners help create a straighter, healthier smile. They’re also an excellent option for patients looking to fix minor crookedness and alignment problems, delivering life-enhancing results with ease.
How the Invisalign® Process Works
Our Invisalign® treatment begins with an initial consultation at Etesse Holistic & Cosmetic Dentistry. During this visit, we discuss your goals and evaluate your oral health using state-of-the-art iTero® digital scanning. This technology eliminates the need for messy impressions and ensures a precise, comfortable experience.
Based on the digital scans, a custom treatment plan is designed just for you. The plan will include a series of aligners tailored to gradually shift your teeth into proper alignment. For best results, aligners are typically worn 20–22 hours a day and swapped out every 1–2 weeks to accommodate progress. Periodic check-ins at our office allow us to monitor your alignment progress and make any necessary adjustments to keep your treatment on track.
The Lasting Benefits of Clear Aligners
Clear aligners deliver a host of benefits that go beyond aligning your teeth. Their near invisibility means you can straighten your smile without feeling self-conscious, perfect for adults and teens who prefer a discreet option. Since they’re removable, you can enjoy all your favorite foods and easily maintain your oral hygiene routine, which is often a challenge with traditional braces.
Comfort is another major advantage. Unlike metal braces with wires and brackets that can irritate your mouth, clear aligners are made of smooth plastic for a custom fit that works gently without causing discomfort. Beyond aesthetics and comfort, straighter teeth are easier to clean, leading to better oral hygiene and a reduced risk of decay and gum disease. Proper alignment can also alleviate jaw tension, reduce headaches, and even support digestive health by improving your bite and chewing efficiency.
Are You a Good Candidate for Clear Aligners?
Clear aligners are a fantastic choice for teens and adults who want to address mild to moderate orthodontic concerns. However, consistent use is key to achieving desired results. If you’re committed to wearing your aligners as instructed, you’ll find them to be a highly effective alternative to braces.
