What Are Clear Aligners?
Clear aligners are a revolutionary orthodontic treatment that offers a nearly invisible way to straighten teeth. Unlike traditional braces, clear aligners are custom-made, removable trays designed to fit snugly over your teeth. These aligners gradually shift your teeth into alignment without the need for metal brackets or wires. With our Westfield clear aligners, patients can enjoy the flexibility of removing their aligners for eating, brushing, and flossing, making them a popular choice for teens and adults who want a discreet and convenient option for straightening their smile.
How Do Clear Aligners Work?
Clear aligners work by using a series of custom-made trays to gradually move your teeth into their desired positions. Each set of aligners is designed to apply gentle pressure to specific teeth, shifting them into alignment. You’ll wear each set for about one to two weeks before moving to the next set in the series. Aligners should be worn for 20 to 22 hours per day and only removed for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing. Throughout the treatment, Dr. Emerick will monitor your progress to ensure your teeth are moving according to plan.
The Advantages of Choosing Westfield Clear Aligners
Clear aligners offer a range of benefits that make them an ideal option for patients seeking a comfortable and discreet orthodontic treatment:
Virtually Invisible
Clear aligners are nearly invisible, allowing you to straighten your teeth without the noticeable appearance of braces.
Removable Convenience
Aligners can be removed for eating and cleaning, giving you more flexibility and comfort.
Comfortable Fit
Made from smooth plastic, aligners are comfortable and won’t irritate your gums or cheeks like metal braces.
Fewer Office Visits
Clear aligners typically require fewer adjustments, meaning less time spent in the orthodontist’s chair.
No Food Restrictions
Since aligners are removed for meals, you can continue enjoying all your favorite foods without worry.
Improved Oral Hygiene
Being able to remove your aligners makes brushing and flossing easier, promoting better overall oral health.
