Orthodontic aligners. An alternative to the braces system

The world does not stand still, new technologies and methods appear every day, as well as in the dentistry.

Everyone knows about the effectiveness of using braces. But not everyone risks to take this step, especially because of the absence of aesthetics. If it is about you, then we have a solution!

You may have already heard about an amazing alternative to braces - aligners. The aligner is a removable prosthesis, a transparent plate which is barely visible on the teeth, a polycarbonate cap. This system is used in order to correct the position of the teeth. Aligners were first invented in Germany. In fact, the aligner is a transparent cap, in which individual “micro-movements” of the teeth are installed in order to correct an irregular teeth row.

Advantages of using aligners:

  • visible results already after 3-4 months of use;
  • more affordable option;
  • the appearance is more aesthetic (less visible on the teeth than braces);
  • in case of having an implant, in order to change the position of one or more teeth (excluding the implant) - aligners are an excellent solution;
  • if it is necessary to change the inclination of one or two teeth (the cap is worn on the entire jaw, but affects the movement of the certain tooth or several teeth);
  • aligners move teeth softly, delicately and more physiologically;
  • aligners treatment is very predictable, because the patient is able to see the final result of his teeth row changes;
  • 90% of patients treated with aligners are those who used to wear braces, but after a some time, one or two teeth could change their position a little bit;
  • aligner treatment is absolutely painless;
  • they are convenient in the implementation of home hygiene;
  • a great option for children's treatment.
Advantages of using aligners:

Of course, in order to understand that aligners are suitable in solving your individual problem, you need to consult a specialist after he thoroughly examines your personal situation. Aligners are a modern and effective approach to orthodontic cases, but it should be noted that they are not suitable for everyone and do not fit in every clinical case.

Therefore, we invite you to a free consultation and examination by our professionals of dental clinics "Sa-Nata"!
