Braces
Braces are orthodontic devices used to correct misaligned teeth and jaws, improving both the function and appearance of a person's smile. They work by applying continuous pressure over time to move teeth into the desired position.
Braces consist of brackets attached to the teeth and connected by wires and sometimes rubber bands. Modern options include traditional metal braces, ceramic braces, and clear aligners like Invisalign.
Wearing braces can help correct various dental issues, such as crooked teeth, overbites, underbites, and gaps, leading to better oral health and increased confidence.
Regular adjustments by an orthodontist ensure the treatment progresses as planned, typically taking one to three years to achieve the desired results.
Clear Aligners
Clear aligners are a modern orthodontic treatment option designed to straighten teeth and correct bite issues without the need for traditional metal braces. Made from smooth, clear plastic, these custom-fit aligners are virtually invisible, providing a discreet solution for orthodontic care.
Why clear aligners?
Customized Treatment: Clear aligners are created using 3D imaging technology to design a series of aligners tailored to your teeth's specific movements.
Comfortable: They are made from smooth plastic, reducing the risk of irritation to gums and cheeks.
Removable: Unlike traditional braces, clear aligners can be removed for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing, allowing for better oral hygiene and dietary flexibility.
Effective: Clear aligners are suitable for treating a variety of orthodontic issues, including overcrowding, gaps, and mild to moderate bite problems.
Convenient: Treatment typically involves changing to a new set of aligners every one to two weeks, with periodic check-ups to monitor progress.
Clear aligners offer a convenient and aesthetically pleasing alternative for those seeking a more flexible and less noticeable orthodontic treatment.
