ClearCorrect (Invisible Braces)

ClearCorrect aligners are the  effective way to treat  moderate crowding of the front teeth  whereas traditional metal or ceramic braces(fixed orthodontic)  are used for more complex types of bite relationships. They are indicated for mild to moderate crowding (where there is a lack of or too much space from 1 to 6 mm and for patients who have experienced a relapse after fixed orthodontic treatment as a result of not wearing their retainers.

Clear-aligner treatment involves the taking of intra oral and smile photos along with impressions of the upper and lower teeth.  These records together with the panoramic x-ray of the jaws are used to create a computerized model that recommends stages between the current and desired teeth position. Differing trays or aligners are created for each stage that is worn for 22 hours a day for two to three weeks Through these aligners the teeth are moved into the desired position. The average treatment time from crooked to straighten teeth is 8-12 months.
