While some people have beautiful natural smiles, others have had to struggle to get their teeth perfectly aligned. In fact, the transition to metal braces was not easy for everyone at the time. Fortunately, today there have been many advances in dentistry, particularly in orthodontics. Say goodbye to unsightly smiles with the new invisible aligners!
ORTHODONTIC TREATMENTS
Orthodontics is one of many dental specialties, and can be prescribed for patients of all ages. Orthodontics can be indispensable for correcting malpositioned teeth and bones. A professional orthodontist will define the nature of the problem and the most appropriate dental appliance for each case. So don't hesitate to contact a professional!
Generally speaking, orthodontic treatment is essential when a person has overlapping teeth, a malocclusion, misaligned teeth or a shifted jaw. Today, there are many choices when it comes to braces. Depending on the case, they can be fixed, removable, semi-removable or bone-anchored. In some cases, oral surgery may be required.
WHAT IS INVISIBLE ALIGNER ORTHODONTICS?
Orthodontics with invisible aligners is one of the many solutions available for orthodontic treatment. They are recommended for correcting misalignment of teeth, lack of space in the jaw, excessive spacing between teeth, or misalignment between upper and lower teeth.
Invisible aligners work quite simply. The patient receives a transparent aligner that is discreet yet comfortable. This will be perfectly adapted to the patient's dental impression. These are removable braces that need to be changed every two weeks, and worn for at least 20 hours a day. Treatment with invisible aligners generally lasts between 6 and 18 months, depending on the patient.
