A great smile can improve your appearance and your confidence. But the benefits of straight teeth aren’t just about looks. Teeth work best when they mesh together like gears, in ideal occlusion. When teeth don’t align properly, it’s called malocclusion. This can make it harder to chew, wear down your enamel, accelerate tooth decay, make you look older, and even cause serious long-term damage.
So straightening your teeth has real aesthetic and physical benefts—but how can we do it? The traditional method is to use metal wires and brackets.
These work great, but they do have some downsides: the brackets can’t be removed until you’re done, you can’t eat certain foods, and of course, it’s pretty obvious you’re wearing braces. Fortunately, there’s a better option!
This is a clear aligner.
It’s a plastic tray customized to fit your teeth and straighten them over time. Aligners are nearly invisible. Most people won’t even notice you’re wearing them. Every 1 to 3 weeks, you’ll switch to a new, updated aligner. Each step moves your teeth a little closer to your goal. You can remove your aligners to eat & brush your teeth. But don’t forget to put them back on…
Of course, no one can guarantee a perfect result for any treatment.
Discuss risks and potential outcomes with your doctor before starting treatment. If you experience any issues, let your doctor
know right away.
By keeping in touch with your doctor and wearing your aligners regularly, you can maximize your chances of success.
Following are some before & after photos of common issues treated with ClearCorrect.
