It’s amusing how perceptions of some things vary greatly from generation to generation. Most likely, you may recall when wearing braces felt like a punishment. If you told your schoolmates, they would feel sorry for you since they knew how badly you would be made fun of. However, thanks to the advent of the groundbreaking clear aligners for teeth, teens nowadays have a different perspective on orthodontics.
Drs. Juergen Langenbach, Lynne Thomas, and their staff at Pearls of Dentistry are masters at using clear aligner therapy to reshape smiles. Today, we’re pleased to highlight just a handful of the numerous reasons why clear aligner therapy is America’s most popular teeth-straightening technique.
Unlike conventional metal braces, clear aligners fit your teeth like a second skin. Nothing to highlight your therapy is present, such as brackets or cables.
Most patients report that no one is even aware they are wearing aligners. Additionally, you won’t have to worry about itching or rubbing thanks to smooth edges. It’s the easiest way to subtly straighten your teeth.
You have a unique smile. For this reason, we started your therapy by mapping every aspect of your smile using a digital scan. We then tailored your treatment strategy to meet your objectives. Your plan will be visible to you as it develops. To keep you motivated, you will even be able to view a projection of your last smile. Transparent aligners are so effective because we design everything around your distinct smile.
Remove your aligners when you eat or brush your teeth, and replace them afterward.
You’re good to go if you adhere to the recommended wear time, usually between 20 and 22 hours daily. Clear aligner therapy aims to work with your schedule rather than the other way around.
Clear aligner treatment can address many alignment issues, such as gaps, crowding, and overbites. These aligners may fix almost everything, even minor bite issues and crooked teeth. After your treatment is over, you can begin to experience the greatest smile of your life.
Treatments using clear aligner therapy are frequently finished in 12 to 18 months.
Taking care of yourself after treatment is essential to sustaining outstanding outcomes. We will use retainers to help secure your new smile and prevent your teeth from returning to their crooked course. They must be worn, cleaned, and kept intact. Our aftercare program is easy to follow and does a fantastic job of maintaining the alignment of your newly restored smile.
Making the most of your smile is our focus at Pearls of Dentistry. To arrange your initial consultation and find out how clear aligners can transform your life, give (858) 451-4413 a call. Patients have faith in our team because we prepare, listen, and consistently fulfill our commitments.
