Wish you could straighten teeth without traditional metal braces? Like the name suggests, Clear Aligners are nearly invisible aligners you wear over your teeth. These clear aligners exert pressure on your teeth to move them into optimal alignment. Our Northville, MI Clear Aligners dentists may recommend Clear Aligners braces to help you achieve the straight smile you’ve always wanted. Call our office today to schedule your consultation.
What are the benefits of Clear Aligners?
Since Clear Aligners are nearly invisible, you don’t have to feel self-conscious about having metal on your teeth. Many of our patients appreciate that Clear Aligners braces are clear and discrete. Other benefits of Clear Aligners include being able to continue eating your favorite foods and maintaining healthy oral hygiene habits. While metal braces are stuck to your teeth, Clear Aligners braces can be removed.
How long does it take for Clear Aligners to work?
Each patient is different. While the average Clear Aligners treatment time is 12 to 18 months, you may need to wear Clear Aligners braces for longer if your case is complex or you don’t wear your aligners consistently. However, some patients notice their smiles start to straighten just a few weeks into Clear Aligners treatment. Schedule an appointment with our dentists to learn if you’re a candidate for Clear Aligners and get your estimated timeline.
Do you wear Clear Aligners all day?
You must wear your Clear Aligners braces 20 to 22 hours a day. Otherwise, your teeth will not move according to schedule. You should only take out your nearly invisible aligners to brush, floss, drink, and eat. The more consistently you wear your aligners, the sooner you’ll be able to enjoy a beautifully straight smile.
