Orthodontic treatment with Clear Aligner
Clear Aligner is a modern, transparent and comfortable orthodontic method for patients who want minor and moderate correction of the dental position without the use of traditional braces and metal springs.
When is treatment with Clear Aligner indicated?
Clear Aligners are recommended in the clinical situations in which we want to:
- Rotating a tooth (correcting the position by turning);
- Spilling a tooth (change in inclination);
- Tooth impaction (pushing a tooth into the socket);
- Retorting a tooth (moving a tooth back inward).
- Clear Aligner is therefore ideal in cases involving slight to moderate dental displacements, effectively correcting aesthetic and functional problems.
Limitations of Clear Aligner treatment:
- It does not allow for extensive tooth movement.
- It is not indicated for the correction of complex anomalies involving large body translation movements of the teeth.
Clear Aligner treatment benefits:
- Superior aesthetics: The aligners are almost invisible, made of transparent material.
- Increased comfort: The smooth surface of the aligners eliminates the discomfort and irritation caused by classic braces.
- Improved hygiene: Being removable, they allow oral hygiene to be maintained without additional difficulties.
- Predictability: Digital planning allows predictability of final results.
In conclusion, the Clear Aligner treatment is an esthetic and comfortable alternative, ideal for mild to moderate tooth position corrections, effectively contributing to the improvement of patients' smile.
