Clear Braces
Are you looking for a way to straighten your teeth without metal braces? If so, you may be interested in clear braces, a clear and removable alternative to traditional braces. These transparent aligners are custom-made to fit your teeth and gradually move them into their ideal positions. For example, if you have mild to moderate crowding or spacing of your teeth, clear braces can help you achieve a more even and aligned smile.
How Does It Work?
At Chester Dental Associates, we are certified in using well-known and trusted brands and we will be there to offer guidance every step of the way.
- Consultation: We will examine your teeth and take digital impressions of your mouth. We will also show you a 3D simulation of how your teeth will look after treatment.
- Treatment plan: We will design a personalized treatment plan for you based on your goals and needs. We will tell you how many aligners you will need and how long your treatment will take.
- Aligners: We will give you a series of clear aligners that are made from a flexible thermoplastic material. You will wear each set of aligners for about one to two weeks before switching to the next one. You will need to wear them for 20 to 22 hours per day and only remove them for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing.
- Check-ups: We will monitor your progress every six to eight weeks and make any adjustments if needed. You will also receive new sets of aligners as you go along.
- Retainers: Once you finish your treatment, we will provide you with retainers that look like clear aligners but are more durable. You will need to wear them as instructed by us to prevent your teeth from shifting back.
Main Advantages
The benefits of clear braces include:
- Discreet: The aligners are virtually invisible so no one will notice that you are wearing them.
- Comfortable: The aligners are smooth and fit snugly over your teeth without irritating your gums or cheeks.
- Removable: You can take out the aligners whenever you want so you can enjoy your favorite foods and drinks without any restrictions.
- Effective: The aligners apply gentle and precise pressure on your teeth to move them efficiently and accurately.
