ClearCorrect offers a way to straighten teeth discreetly without traditional braces. This system, introduced in 2006, uses a series of custom-made, clear, removable aligners to gradually shift teeth into the correct position.

Here’s how it generally works:

Consultation & Planning: You’ll meet orthodontist to determine if ClearCorrect is right for you. They’ll assess your teeth, take impressions/scans, photos, and x-rays, and map out a 3D treatment plan for gradual realignment.

Custom Aligners: Based on this plan, a series of clear aligners are custom-fabricated.

Wearing the Aligners: You’ll wear each set of aligners for approximately 2-3 weeks, removing them only for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing. Consistent wear (20-22 hours/day) is key.

Monitoring Progress: Regular dental visits monitor your progress and provide new aligners.

Retention: After treatment, retainers are often needed to maintain your new smile.

Benefits:

Discreet: Aligners are virtually invisible.

Removable: Allows for normal eating and easy oral hygiene.

Comfortable: Smooth plastic aligns teeth without the irritation of wires and brackets.

Effective: Addresses mild to moderate crowding, spacing, and bite issues.

Fewer Visits: Potentially reduces office visits compared to traditional braces.

Considerations: 

Compliance: Requires strict adherence to wearing the aligners.
Complexity: May not be suitable for severe cases.

ClearCorrect, like other aligner treatments, is a popular choice for adults and teens seeking a less conspicuous and more comfortable way to straighten their teeth. Please, consult our dentist to determine if it’s the right solution for your individual needs.
