Aligners – The Magic Braces !

Aligners – The Magic Braces !

Well, we all crave for that perfect smile but not all of us have natural perfect teeth .. to get that perfect smile go with Aligners !

And the best way that more and more people are having success with beautiful smiles is through clear Aligners technology.

As the name suggests, they help align crooked teeth into the perfect position giving you that amazing smile !

The earlier concept was to use braces , but “Aligners” are the new in thing !

They are a series of tight-fitting custom-made mouthpieces that slip over your teeth and are aesthetically very subtle when compared to braces as they are transparent and invisible.

They are just like braces but detachable and definitely more aesthetic than steel or ceramic braces. They are made from a clear plastic or acrylic material and fit tightly over the teeth, and can be removed for eating, brushing, and flossing.

You’ll get a new aligner with tighter settings; every few weeks to continue moving the teeth into the desired

  1. Anyone at any age can get aligners– As the invisible teeth aligners are custom-built for a tight fit, they are best for adults and teens. Straightening a child’s teeth is more complicated. Young people, and their mouths, are still growing and developing; and hence using aligners is recommended only for young teenagers and adults and have found to be most effective for them .
  2. Underbites, Overbites or cross bites all can be set right –
  3. Clear orthodontic teeth aligners are usually used for those who have very minimal spacing issues and have moderately crowded teeth structure.?Those patients who might have issue with wide spacing or severe underbites, overbites, or crossbites — may need more complex treatment along with aligners, but they are bound to give u the best results
  4. Length of Treatment?– The time taken to correct teeth with invisible aligners is based on how much the teeth need to be moved or rotated. The more your bite is off or the more crooked your teeth, the longer it will take. Treatment usually takes between 10 and 24 months. For some patients as little as 10 weeks are enough !
  5. Aesthetically pleasing and good to look at
  6. The main reason why adult patients decide to go in for clear aligners is that they appear invisible and are definitely prettier and more pleasing to look at than braces. This helps conceal the fact that the patient is undergoing any orthodontic treatment, which can be embarrassing for some adults.
  7. Easily Removable
  8. Unlike traditional fixtures or braces , Aligners are fixed and screwed in place. Aligners have the added advantage of being detachable by the persons themselves if required. Patients love having this ability to remove their clear aligners when they eat, brush or floss their teeth. This allows them to maintain good oral hygiene.
  9. Greater Health benefits
  10. Many patients who have traditional braces a bit difficult to properly take care of because of the lengthy cleaning routines?as they are unable to clean and brush properly. These deposits are visible when the braces are removed.
  11. Poor hygiene habits with traditional braces also may result in swollen gums ,gingivitis, and in a few cases with stomach infection from rotting food pieces in the mouth.
  12. Clear aligners help teeth quickly get in shape, comfortably, and accurately with minimum embarrassment and discomfort. They are indeed a great alternative to bracket and wire orthodontic and are therefore now a much popular option for orthodontic treatments . Chose the one that mimics the natural shade of your teeth and fits you the best.
  13. These aligners are definitely a better bet than traditional braces and look so nice that one cannot even know that the patient has put on braces, until they come up,?close and personal.

As is widely known, there are so many different brands to choose from and only your orthodontist can choose the best aligners for you . The price varies from each case to case.?Usually the price varies depending on the number of aligners used and the brand and the severity of the tooth alignment required.

Although this may seem a bit steep but given the benefit and convenience of the these clear braces it is definitely a small price to pay.
