Clear Aligner Orthodontics

Clear aligners, such as Invisalign and 32co, are a popular alternative to traditional braces. These clear plastic trays are custom-made to fit snugly over the teeth and gently shift them into place over time. Clear aligners are an attractive option for many patients, as they are nearly invisible and can be removed for eating, brushing, and flossing.

Pros:

  • Clear aligners are virtually invisible, making them a great option for patients who are self-conscious about their appearance.

  • They are removable, which makes eating, brushing, and flossing easier.

  • Clear aligners require fewer office visits for adjustments.

  • They can be more comfortable than fixed orthodontics.

Cons:

  • Clear aligners are less effective for complex dental issues.

  • They can be more expensive than fixed orthodontics.

  • They require strict adherence to the treatment plan, which may not be suitable for some patients.
