Clear aligners are a modern orthodontic treatment designed to straighten teeth discreetly and comfortably. Made from transparent, medical-grade plastic, they offer an aesthetically pleasing alternative to traditional metal braces. Each set of aligners is custom-made to fit snugly over the patient’s teeth, gradually shifting them into the desired position. The treatment involves a series of aligners, typically changed every one to two weeks, each slightly different from the previous one to continue the realignment process.
One of the primary advantages of clear aligners is their removability, allowing patients to maintain their regular oral hygiene routines and enjoy their favorite foods without restriction. Additionally, clear aligners are known for their comfort, as they lack the wires and brackets that can cause irritation in traditional braces. Suitable for treating a range of dental issues, from mild to moderate misalignments, clear aligners have become a popular choice for both teens and adults seeking a more convenient and less conspicuous orthodontic solution.
