Transform Your Smile with ClearCorrect: Effective and Invisible Teeth Straightening
A beautiful smile is one of the best assets you can invest in. When you have a smile you’re proud of, you walk through life with confidence. In the past, the path to getting straighter teeth was somewhat cumbersome. The only option was uncomfortable and unsightly metal braces and brackets. However, modern orthodontic technology has offered a clear solution: Transparent ClearCorrect® aligners.
ClearCorrect® Aligners: What Are They?
Clear aligners are designed to treat mild malocclusion or crooked teeth. These aligners are transparent and ultra-thin, so they’re virtually undetectable from a distance. ClearCorrect® aligners work similarly to traditional braces by moving the teeth to a straighter position with consistent, gentle force.
Not Just for Crooked Teeth
In addition to straightening your teeth, ClearCorrect® can also address the following dental concerns:
- Overbite.
- Underbite.
- Openbite.
- Crossbite.
- Unevenly-spaced teeth.
- Gapped teeth.
- Overcrowded teeth.
The ClearCorrect Process
The ClearCorrect® treatment plan has three steps: Consultation, customization, and progression. During the consultation, the dentist will determine whether you’re a good candidate for clear aligners. For the customization step, the team will use 3D imaging technology to create your personalized treatment plan. Finally, in the progression step, you’ll visit the office every couple of weeks to get your new aligners to progress through treatment.
Clear Aligners Aren’t a Quick Fix for Crooked Teeth
Straightening crooked teeth takes time, whether you use metal braces or clear aligners. The process with ClearCorrect® takes 6 to 18 months. Also, they need to be worn for about 22 hours every day.
Benefits of Clear Aligners
ClearCorrect® aligners are custom-made for every individual. With cutting-edge innovation, ClearCorrect® gives you a personalized orthodontic solution. Here are some of the amazing benefits you will enjoy with clear aligners.
- Oral care: Clear aligners are removable, so you can take them out to eat and brush your teeth.
- Aesthetically pleasing: With clear aligners, you don’t have to worry about unattractive metal braces.
- Comfort: Aligners are less irritating than traditional metal braces to the cheeks, tongue, and gums. When you first get your aligners, you may experience a little tightness and discomfort as your teeth are being moved to new positions. However, this discomfort doesn’t last long, and you’ll quickly adjust.
- Convenient: With clear aligners, you don’t have to worry about having your brackets and wires adjusted. Simply visit the office every couple of weeks to pick up your new aligners.
- Eat what you want: Since the aligners are removable, you can take them out when you eat. This means that anything you enjoyed eating before the teeth straightening process, you can still enjoy even after you get your aligners.
Good Candidates for Clear Aligners
ClearCorrect® aligners are perfect for those with mild to moderate malocclusion. As long as you meet these criteria, you can benefit from clear aligners to fix conditions such as crowding, spacing, and bite issues.
