Clear Aligner Therapy is a treatment that involves moving your teeth, but without braces. The aligners are made out of a see-through plastic shell that fits perfectly over your teeth.  They are made individually for your teeth to move them into better positions. Depending on how far your teeth need to move, you will get a certain number of aligners to move your teeth to their required position.  They provide an easy and comfortable lifestyle whilst moving your teeth and the best thing is that they are barely visible!

We all know braces as being the “old-school” way of straightening your teeth.  Braces or fixed orthodontics are still being used but there is another option to getting your teeth straight that does not involve braces.  Clear Aligners are now being widely used to straighten teeth.  Braces cannot be removed during your treatment whereas aligners can.  Aligners and braces can take the same amount of time to get similar results. The most important difference is that the Clear Aligners are almost invisible!

At your consultation we will assess your teeth and face, take photos and a 3D intra-oral scan and x-rays.  With this information we will then see if you are a candidate for Clear Aligner Therapy. Visit us @appledentalclinic to find out!
