Want a dazzling smile but think wearing braces is a difficult process? We recommend looking into aligners, which correct bites and align teeth just like a brace system, but are much easier to wear!
At the Roccadent Clinic, we provide aligner treatment services using modern technologies and an individual approach for each patient.
What are aligners?
Aligners are special orthodontic caps made of medical plastic that are transparent. They can be worn by both children and adults who want to correct their bite and align their teeth. This is a great alternative to traditional metal systems, as they are almost invisible on the teeth. They are not only comfortable to wear but also easy to clean.
How they work
They fit over the teeth and gradually move them into the correct position. Dental caps work by exerting constant gentle pressure on the teeth. The treatment process consists of several stages:
- Step one: An examination is conducted by an orthodontist. They take X-rays and create a 3D model of the patient’s teeth. Based on this data, an individual treatment plan is developed.
- Step two: Removable aligners are custom-made using computer modeling. Each set is designed for a specific stage of treatment.
- Step three: During the treatment period, the patient must wear the caps daily, removing them only for cleaning teeth or eating.
- Step four: Every 2-4 weeks, the patient must change to a new set of aligners, which will correct the teeth for the next stage of treatment.
- Step five: It is necessary to periodically visit the orthodontist to monitor progress and make adjustments if necessary.
Benefits of dental caps
Dental aligners have several advantages:
- Invisibility: You don’t need to worry about how your smile will look. Dental aligners are almost invisible.
- Comfort: You won’t scratch your tongue on metal, and your gums will remain intact.
- Removability: Makes oral care much easier.
- Individual approach: Each cap is designed with the patient’s tooth row characteristics in mind.
- Ease of care: No need to use special brushes for cleaning; it’s much simpler.
- Predictable result: On the first visit, you can see the final result thanks to 3D modeling.
