5 Benefits of Clear Aligners

Yes, you heard that right! These really are clear braces, which makes treatment much more discreet than having fixed metal braces, with their wires and brackets. Even though technology has advanced and permanent braces can now be a little more subtle with clear or tooth-coloured elements, nothing compares to clear brace’s clever construction. These are barely noticeable in your smile.

You’ll love the freedom that comes with clear braces. Remove them anytime, anywhere – just as long as you follow your treatment programme and store them correctly! Compared to fixed metal braces, a dentist can only remove these at the end of your treatment. So with clear aligners, you can have a break when you need it most.

Treatment couldn’t be easier with clear aligners. At your consultation, you’ll have scans of your smile taken, with a computer to then plot each tiny movement your teeth need to align them properly. Then, your clear braces are made – which fit comfortably over your teeth, with no need for wires and brackets. You can track your progress on the app and you’ll even see computer-generated results for what your finished smile will look like.

With clear braces, you only need to rinse on removal and re-insertion and soak them every few days to keep them looking their best. You’ll also need a soft toothbrush for a mild cleaner. It’s just as easy as looking after your own smile, and you can take them out to clean them, too.

Those with fixed braces will need to embrace a simpler diet, so they don’t risk breaking their braces or getting food stuck in the apparatus. Because clear braces are removable, with these you can take them out anytime you want a meal or snack – and are free to eat what you like.
