Orthodontic Clear Aligners 

Clear aligners are a great alternative to traditional metal braces. They are virtually invisible, so you can straighten your teeth without anyone noticing. Orthodontic treatment with clear aligners are also much more comfortable than metal braces, and you can remove them for eating and cleaning. If you're looking for a discreet way to straighten your teeth, Invisalign is the perfect solution.

This type of orthodontic treatment uses a set of translucent, custom-made aligning trays. The orthodontist updates the trays every week to correspond with the new tooth configuration. These clear aligners are not only less visible than traditional braces, but they can also

In addition to being barely noticeable, Invisalign®'s detachable so patients remove them when eating or brushing their teeth.

What issues can clear aligners correct?

The same dental problems that metal braces correct may be fixed with clear aligners; the only distinction is that the trays are virtually undetectable to the naked eye and may be removed at any time.

Here are some problems that are commonly corrected with clear aligner treatment:

• Crowding – Crowding occurs when there is not enough room for all the teeth to line up properly in the mouth. This can lead to tooth decay and make it more likely that you will get gum disease.
• Large gaps between teeth – Teeth may be missing or the jaw can continue to grow incorrectly.
• Crossbite – When one or more of a person's upper teeth bite into the lower teeth, this type of dental issue arises. As a result, bone erosion and gum disease may develop as a consequence of uneven wear.
• Overbite – When the upper teeth protrude farther than, or completely cover, the lower teeth, this condition occurs. Jaw discomfort and TMJ may eventually develop as a result of this.
• Underbite – This occurs when the lower teeth project further than, or totally conceal, the upper teeth. Jaw discomfort and TMJ may develop as a consequence of this.

What are the benefits over traditional braces?

Three main methods to achieve straighter teeth are through traditional dental braces, clear aligning trays, and dental veneers. The best route depends on a variety of individualized factors.

Unlike regular braces, Invisalign®'s clear aligning trays are removable. Even though this demands more responsibility from the patient, it's hardly ever an issue since the trays are comfortable and almost undetectable. Results for both treatments are often indistinguishable. However, since you remove the tray while brushing and flossing, it's simpler to maintain good oral hygiene compared to traditional braces.
