Straighten Your Teeth With The “Clear” Choice
Are you self-conscious about your teeth and do your best to avoid showing them off? Would you love to start orthodontic treatment but are not interested in traditional metal braces? Long gone are the days where traditional metal braces were the only option to straighten teeth. While this option does offer many benefits, there is another one that is ideal for a number of patients. At Noble Oaks Dentistry, we offer the perfect orthodontic treatment option that can be used to straighten your teeth — clear aligners.
What are Clear Aligners?
If you would love to straighten your teeth but have no desire to wear metal braces, clear aligners may be the option for you. Clear aligners are plastic trays that are molded to the shape of your teeth, slowly moving and transitioning them into a designated place. They can help patients with dental issues such as overcrowding, crooked teeth, gaps between teeth, and bite problems. This treatment is ideal for our adult patients who would love to receive orthodontic treatment in a discreet manner. Because the aligners are clear, many patients feel the trays are invisible.
Benefits of Clear Aligners
One of the biggest benefits of clear aligners is the fact that they are removable. The trays can be removed from your mouth so you can eat, drink and clean your teeth. Patients love the idea that they have no food restrictions while receiving treatment. We do recommend wearing your trays for approximately 22 hours a day, but that is just enough time for you to thoroughly enjoy your meals each day.
Another benefit is the total treatment time. When aligners are worn properly, treatment time can be considerably less than other orthodontic options. Patients also receive a number of trays at a time, reducing the number of office visits required.
