We offer comprehensive orthodontics at Echeverri Dental Center for all ages, including clear aligner therapy similar to Invisalign. Clear aligners are an excellent alternative for an older teen or adult who wants straighter teeth without metal braces!
Treatment involves wearing a series of clear aligners customized just for your smile. Your dentist maps out your treatment using specialized software to plan the type and extent of movement needed to align your teeth.
Wearing Your Clear Aligners
When your custom aligners are ready, we provide instructions that tell you to wear each set for 22 hours a day for about two weeks. The number of aligners you receive corresponds to your dentist’s plan, and when you’ve worn them all, you’re finished with treatment. The final step is to wear a custom retainer as instructed to prevent your teeth from relapsing to their crooked positions.
The Benefits of Clear Aligner Therapy
Adults and teens appreciate the benefits clear aligners offer that bracket-and-wire braces don’t, including:
- Discreet — You can keep your treatment a secret because most people won’t notice you’re wearing aligners.
- Comfortable — No metal brackets and wires on your teeth means less irritation and soreness.
- Removable — You can easily remove your aligner trays and continue to eat the foods you want and brush and floss easily.
