Clear braces in St. Paul, MN, straighten teeth by correcting improper alignment. In other words, our clear braces through ClearCorrect gradually shift the teeth into straighter positions across the treatment period, moving them incrementally as you change your aligners.
Let’s explore ClearCorrect, including how it works and its benefits.
About ClearCorrect
ClearCorrect is a series of clear aligners worn over the teeth. These aligners are custom-crafted from impressions of your teeth. You wear each set of aligners for about two weeks before moving on to the next. You visit our office occasionally for monitoring, and at the end of treatment, you wear a custom retainer to prevent orthodontic relapse.
The process for ClearCorrect is as follows:
- Consultation with the dentist to determine candidacy
- Impressions of your teeth for aligner fabrication
- Wearing your aligners for the predetermined treatment timeline
- Periodically visiting our dental office for alignment monitoring
- Completion of therapy and wearing your custom retainer at night
The Benefits of ClearCorrect
During ClearCorrect treatment, you’ll appreciate being able to remove your aligners to eat and clean your teeth. You’ll enjoy indulging in your favorite meals with no eating restrictions! Additionally, you’ll never worry about food getting trapped in brackets or wires.
When teeth are aligned, and your chewing force is even or level, you’re protecting your smile against wear and tear, which weakens teeth over time. Additionally, properly aligned teeth are supported naturally in their symmetry and cannot shift or migrate. You may notice fewer cavities.
An aligned smile makes brushing and flossing your teeth easier, and you’ll feel more confident when smiling!
