Achieve Your Orthodontic Goals with Ease with Clear Aligner Therapy

Who doesn’t want a healthy, perfectly aligned, beautiful smile? That’s the goal of orthodontics. If traditional braces aren’t a good fit, you can still achieve your orthodontic goals through clear aligner therapy. At Mirage Family Dentistry in Yorktown, Virginia, Dr. Rajni Kapoor offers clear aligners for adults looking for an orthodontic system better suited to their busy lifestyle. Invisalign and clear aligners fit the bill. Here’s what you should know about clear aligner therapy.

The Ease of Clear Aligner Therapy

Metal braces have their place but come with a wide range of restrictions. This can make traditional braces less attractive to young professionals or adults with busy schedules. Clear aligner therapy is a solution for that. 

Clear aligner therapy allows you to incorporate orthodontic treatment into your lifestyle. In place of metal hardware, you’ll use clear plastic aligners to straighten your teeth. These aligners are custom-made to ensure a comfortable, snug fit. Using digital technology, Dr. Kapoor will map out a treatment plan that is conducive to your orthodontic needs. By wearing the aligners as instructed – 20 to 22 hours daily – and taking good care of your teeth, you’ll be rewarded with a beautiful, well-aligned smile by the end of your treatment.

Actual Patient Results

The following perks of Invisalign and clear aligners help you achieve your orthodontic goals with greater convenience and ease:

• Removable Aligners – Metal braces are permanently attached to your teeth for the duration of your treatment. This makes both eating and oral hygiene a challenge. In contrast, clear aligners can be removed for meals, brushing, and flossing your teeth. You can enjoy your meals without dietary restrictions. You’ll also be able to maintain better oral hygiene throughout your treatment, reducing the risk of getting cavities. 
• Comfort – As the aligners are customized for your use, they’re easy to snap on and remove and more comfortable to wear. The aligners are also smooth, flexible plastic material with no metal parts to irritate your gums, tongue, or cheeks. 
• Invisibility – Clear aligners are much more discreet than metal braces any day! The aligners blend in with your teeth, making them less noticeable when in use. You won’t feel self-conscious about your appearance at work or social functions.   
• Fewer dental visits – Your aligners have no metal wires or bands to adjust, so you won’t need as many dental visits. Dr. Kapoor will monitor your treatment, but dental appointments can be made every four to six weeks. Your treatment won’t cut into your busy schedule. 
• Less disruption of personal lifestyle – Clear aligner therapy won’t disrupt your personal lifestyle. You can remove the aligners for sports play, special dates, work presentations, or other special activities as long as you replace them again immediately afterward.
