How do Clear Aligners Work?

Clear Aligner Treatments that are currently available on offer for the purpose of straightening teeth. Your Orthodontist is the best person to advise which of the many Clear Aligner systems would be best for your particular circumstances as they all have strengths and weaknesses which need to be carefully considered.

Clear aligners work by moving your teeth in small steps to the desired position determined by your orthodontist specialist. Each aligner is developed to fit your mouth at every stage of your treatment plan.

Using this 3D scan we are then able to make a set of custom aligners that are made just for you! Each aligner is generally worn for about two weeks at a time as part of your treatment. Be mindful however that this interval may vary depending on your circumstances, and ultimately will vary in accord with the way the orthodontist programs your treatment staging. 

As you progress from aligner to aligner your teeth will gradually move in small stages until you finally have a smile that you are happy with. Then you’ll be smiling like you never have before!

Because of the discrete nature of Clear Aligner Treatment, these treatments are also commonly called “invisible braces”. One of the reasons patients choose clear retainers over braces is that they are much less visible than regular braces.

The only time you need to take out your aligner is when you need to eat, brush and floss your teeth.

This form of treatment uses advanced digital technology and computer aided design to program your set of aligners in advance. As such, rather than coming in to see us every two weeks, we provide you with enough aligners to last for six to eight weeks’ worth of treatment, and sometimes even longer depending on the circumstances. This means you won’t need frequent visits to the clinic.

Surprising Fact:

To ensure the best possible results, only an Orthodontist who has been trained and certified in the diagnosis, planning and administration of Clear Aligner Treatment. Clear Aligners are often not intended for young children and are not appropriate for every adult. 

Be sure to understand that Clear Aligner Treatment is not a simple commodity. It is a treatment system that is appropriately supervised by the orthodontists to ensure you achieve successful results. Our industry-leading orthodontists work with you during the planning and implementation of the treatment to help you achieve the smile you have always wanted. The correct planning and administration of these techniques by an experienced practitioner is absolutely paramount to obtaining excellent outcomes in an efficient manner.
