Clear aligners are a modern orthodontic treatment that straightens teeth without metal brackets and wires. Instead, they use a series of custom-made, clear aligners to transform your smile. The aligners are removable, so you can take them out to eat, drink, brush, and floss. This is more convenient and makes it easier to maintain good oral health during your treatment.
At Woodfin Cabassa Orthodontics, we offer clear aligner treatment to adults and teens who want to improve their smiles discreetly. Clear aligners are nearly invisible when worn and made from smooth plastic, so they won't be noticeable or irritate your cheeks or gums like traditional braces may. They also won't cause mouth sores or other types of discomfort.
How Do Clear Aligners Work?
If clear aligners suit your needs, our orthodontist in Pensacola, FL, will create a personalized treatment plan. Advanced digital imaging technology, such as 3D or intraoral scans, will be used to create a precise digital model of your teeth. Based on the treatment plan, a series of custom-made aligners are designed for your teeth. These aligners are made from a clear, smooth, and BPA-free plastic material. They are virtually invisible when worn, making them an attractive option for those who desire a discreet orthodontic solution.
Once your aligners are ready, our orthodontist will guide you on how to wear and care for them. You'll wear each set of aligners for about two weeks, 20-22 hours a day, removing them only for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing. The aligners are designed to shift your teeth into their desired positions gradually. The aligners exert gentle and controlled pressure on your teeth, moving them slightly with each new set.
The treatment plan is based on the predetermined movement of your teeth from the initial digital scan. You'll have periodic check-up appointments with our orthodontist throughout your clear aligner treatment to monitor your progress. These appointments allow our orthodontist to ensure that your teeth are moving as planned and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment.
