Many people deal with imperfect teeth and often opt-in for clear aligners over the traditional braces. Clear aligners offer most of the straightening abilities as the bulky traditional ones without being as noticeable. At Smile of Round Lake, Dr. Lin prefers to use ClearCorrect® clear aligners. In the article below you will learn more about ClearCorrect and how it could benefit you or someone you might know.
What is ClearCorrect?
Get that straight smile you wanted effortlessly with the ClearCorrect Aligners. ClearCorrect Aligners allow you to discreetly straighten your teeth without giving up the foods and activities that you love. ClearCorrect treatment works by using a series of clear aligners to gradually improve appearance and function. The clear aligners apply gentle and consistent pressure to align the teeth. The ClearCorrect aligners are so thin that patients can easily adjust to speaking and even playing instruments with mouthpieces. The clear aligners are easily removed to make it easier for your daily dental hygiene like brushing and flossing. The days of trying to brush and floss around cemented metal brackets from braces on your teeth are gone.
Who Can Benefit from ClearCorrect?
Teenagers and Adults can both use ClearCorrect. With the ease of ClearCorrect senior citizens and children might be able to benefit from ClearCorrect, but should consult with their dentists to determine the best options for their treatments. There was an older study that was done based on aligners and braces. Clear Aligners have come a long way since the study, but this article is an interesting read.
ClearCorrect can assist with the below conditions:
- Spacing between teeth
- Underbites
- Crowded teeth
- Overbites
- Rotated or teeth crooked
Treatment Process
Patients are usually surprised at how easy the process is. The first step is a personalized consultation by the Smiles of Round Lake team. We will discuss what you don’t currently like about your teeth. Then your bite and teeth positions will be evaluated. This will assist with letting us know if ClearCorrect treatment is right for you. Then, we will take impressions of your teeth. These impressions with your possible previous records will be used to create your customized series of ClearCorrect Aligners. You will come back into the office when the clear aligners are ready. At that time we will go over the list of instructions on how to use and maintain your new clear aligners.
