The Clear Aligner Process
Clear aligner treatment is simple – it consists of a set of clear, comfortable, plastic aligners that are custom-made to match detailed digital impressions (no goopy stuff!) our staff will take of your teeth. Each aligner represents a different stage that your teeth will go through as they move into their ideal alignment. All our patients have to do is wear each one for around two weeks before moving to the next aligner. We’ll also ask that you attend a brief checkup at Zahner Dental every six to ten weeks so that we can ensure that your progress is going smoothly. While treatment time varies from patient to patient, most cases finish after 12 to 18 months – a significantly shorter span than traditional metal braces, which can often take two or more years.
Benefits of Clear Aligners
There are several benefits to choosing clear aligner treatment:
- The aligners are clear and close-fitting, making them nearly invisible to those around you.
- Because the treatment is removable, you won’t have to make any inconvenient changes to your diet or oral health routine.
- Do you have a big event coming up where you need to look your absolute best? No problem – It’s perfectly all right to pop out your Invisalign aligner for a few hours while you enjoy your special night. Just make sure to put it back in afterward!
Don’t feel like you have to suffer through traditional metal braces to get the look you’ve always wanted. For patients with mild to moderate dental misalignments, clear aligners can transform smiles easily and seamlessly. Contact our office in Ellington, CT, today to schedule a consultation.
