What are clear aligners?
Clear aligners are described as a more modern approach to orthodontic treatment that uses a series of virtually invisible, custom-made aligner trays to gently reposition your teeth into place. They are designed to fit seamlessly into your daily life while being nearly impossible to spot! Each set of clear aligners is tailored to your unique needs, ensuring that we are carefully addressing your specific alignment goals.
What are the benefits of clear aligners?
Here are some reasons why patients at Shadowridge Dental Group love this teeth straightening solution:
- Discreet appearance: Clear aligners are practically invisible, so you can go about your day with confidence.
- Comfortable fit: Unlike traditional braces, clear aligners are smooth and custom-molded to your teeth, minimizing irritation to your gums and cheeks.
- Easy maintenance: Since aligners are removable, you can eat, brush, and even floss like you already do, with no dietary restrictions or complicated cleaning routines required!
- Efficient results: With consistent wear and regular check-ins, clear aligners can produce stunning results in a manageable timeframe.
What is the process of using clear aligners?
Getting started with clear aligners at Shadowridge Dental Group is easier than you might think! Here’s a quick look at what you can expect:
- Consultation: Our team begins with a thorough evaluation of your teeth and discusses your smile goals. This includes taking advanced digital scans to map out the teeth alignment process.
- Custom treatment plan: Using state-of-the-art technology, we’ll create a personalized treatment plan to outline how the teeth will gradually shift right into their ideal positions.
- Aligner fitting: Once your custom aligners are ready, we fit you with your first set and provide specific instructions on how to wear and care for them.
- Follow-ups: We check in with you periodically to monitor your continued progress and provide new aligner sets as needed. Before you know it, you’ll be flashing that straighter, healthier smile!
How long does the treatment take?
This depends on your specific needs and orthodontic case, but most of our patients start seeing changes within a few weeks and achieve their desired results in months to a couple of years.
Do I have to wear them all the time?
To get the best results, aim to wear your aligners for at least 20 hours a day, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss.
Are clear aligners suitable for everyone?
While clear aligners are great for addressing many common alignment issues, some complex cases may require other orthodontic treatment options. During your consultation, Drs. Daniel Huffmire and James Sorge determine if clear aligners are right for you.
