WHO SHOULD GET CLEAR ALIGNERS?

Aligner treatment is a great option for both adults and teens. If any of these sound like you, you may be a great candidate for aligner treatment:

• You’d like to improve your smile, but are concerned about the appearance of metal braces at special events, such as a presentation at school, a job interview, an important meeting, or a date;

• You prefer a more discrete treatment option that colleagues, clients, and friends will hardly notice;

• You don’t want to be restricted in what you can eat. Even more - you wish to remove your orthodontic appliance while eating;

• You don’t want the hassle associated with cleaning your teeth while wearing metal braces;

If any or all of these resonate with you, aligner treatment may be your perfect solution!

If you are considering aligner treatment, it’s important to consider your daily habits. While clear aligners come with many conveniences, such as ease of maintaining good oral hygiene and less visibility compared to traditional metal braces, they also come with their own responsibilities and challenges.

Clear aligners must be removed before eating or drinking anything (except for water). This requires planning and responsibility, as your aligners must be worn for at least 20 hours per day in order to maintain effective, timely treatment.

But with the right planning, clear aligners can work for you!
