Achieve A Beautiful New Smile With Clear Aligners
At Methuen Family Dentistry in Methuen, clear aligners have emerged as a revolutionary solution for correcting dental misalignment and achieving a straighter, more confident smile. Clear aligners offer a discreet and convenient orthodontic treatment option, unlike traditional braces.
What are clear aligners?
Clear aligners are custom-made, removable trays that gradually shift teeth into their desired positions. These trays are made from a transparent, BPA-free plastic material, rendering them virtually invisible when worn. Clear aligners are designed using proven computer technology and are tailor-made for each patient.
How do clear aligners work?
The process begins with a consultation where our dentist creates a 3D digital model of your teeth. This model is used to create a series of aligner trays that represent the different stages of the treatment plan. Each tray is worn for a specific period, usually around two weeks, before progressing to the next tray. As you advance through the series, your teeth gradually shift into alignment.
What issues do clear aligners address?
Clear aligners address overcrowding, spacing issues, crossbite, overbite, and underbite. They can also help correct mild to moderate orthodontic relapse in individuals who previously wore braces. Whether the patient is an adult seeking to enhance their smile or a teenager looking for a discreet treatment option, clear aligners provide an effective solution.
What are the benefits of clear aligners?
Unlike traditional metal braces, clear aligners are easily removable for eating, brushing, and flossing, improving oral hygiene. They’re more comfortable than the brackets and wires used in braces. You’ll also need fewer dental appointments than you would with traditional braces, making clear aligners a convenient choice for those with busy schedules. As your teeth gradually align, you’ll feel more confident and enjoy the benefits of a beautiful, harmonious smile.
