Orthodontic clear aligners provide a modern solution for straightening teeth with a less noticeable appearance than traditional metal braces. These aligners are almost invisible, making them an attractive option for those seeking a subtler way to improve their smile. Additionally, their removable design simplifies eating and dental care routines.
While Clear Aligners are designed for comfort and less visibility, some patients may experience mild discomfort or pressure when a new aligner is first worn. This sensation typically diminishes after a few days as the teeth begin to adjust to their new positions.
The duration of treatment with Clear Aligners varies depending on the complexity of the dental issues being corrected. Treatment can range from a few months to a couple of years, with the average treatment time being around 12 to 18 months. Adherence to wearing the aligners for the recommended 20-22 hours per day plays a crucial role in treatment duration.
Clear Aligner treatment is typically suitable for teenagers and adults whose teeth have fully erupted, including their second molars. The specific age can vary, but treatment usually starts in the early teenage years, around the age of 13 or 14, once the adult teeth are in place.
Check-ups for Clear Aligner treatment are generally less frequent than traditional braces. Patients might need to visit their orthodontist every 6 to 8 weeks to monitor progress and receive new sets of aligners. However, this can vary based on individual treatment plans.
