What is Clear Braces or Invisalign?
Clear braces, also known as Invisalign, are a modern and discreet way to straighten your teeth. Unlike traditional metal braces, clear braces use a series of custom-made, nearly invisible aligners to gently move your teeth into the right position. These aligners are made from smooth, clear plastic and are removable, allowing you to eat, brush, and floss without any restrictions. Invisalign is a popular choice for people who want a more comfortable, aesthetically pleasing alternative to traditional braces.
Treatment for Clear Braces or Invisalign
The treatment for clear braces or Invisalign begins with a consultation with your orthodontist. A 3D scan or impression of your teeth is taken to create customized aligners. You’ll wear each set of aligners for about 1-2 weeks, allowing your teeth to gradually shift into their proper position. Throughout the process, you’ll have regular check-ups to monitor progress. Depending on the complexity of your case, treatment usually lasts between 6 to 18 months. Invisalign is suitable for correcting a range of dental issues, including crooked teeth, gaps, and bite problems, offering a comfortable and convenient solution for straighter teeth.
