Clear aligners are the modern alternative to braces.
It's true! In many cases, patients who require braces can consider clear aligners as an alternative.
Here are a few things that dental aligners offer that braces do not.
- You can straighten your teeth without the metal and wire look of braces.
- You can clean your mouth and aligner easier because the system is removable.
- Aligners can be removed for eating, which means no dietary restrictions.
How do aligners work?
After your comprehensive oral check-up to ensure that you are a good candidate for clear aligners, your Northborough dentist will use 3-D imaging technology to measure the exact dimensions of your teeth.
This allows us to create a custom aligner that is nearly invisible when worn.
You will wear the aligner for around twenty-two hours a day. Each successive set of aligners will push your teeth slowly into place. Throughout the treatment, you will visit the dentist to monitor the progress of your treatment.
