What Are Clear Aligners?
Clear aligners are a modern, discreet alternative to traditional braces. Made from transparent, medical-grade plastic, these custom-designed trays gradually shift your teeth into alignment. Their near-invisible appearance and removability have revolutionized orthodontics, offering a comfortable and flexible solution for both teens and adults. Popular for their convenience and aesthetic appeal, clear aligners allow patients to enjoy their favorite foods and maintain regular oral hygiene routines without restrictions. At Heinz Orthodontics, we specialize in creating personalized clear aligner plans, combining advanced technology with Dr. Heinz’s expertise to deliver exceptional results.
How Do Clear Aligners Work?
Clear aligners work by using a series of custom-made trays to gradually move teeth into their ideal positions. The process begins with an initial consultation, where Dr. Heinz evaluates your teeth and bite using advanced 3D imaging technology to create a precise digital model for your treatment plan. Based on this model, a series of aligners is custom-designed to fit your teeth perfectly, with each set applying gentle pressure to guide your teeth into alignment. Aligners are worn for 20-22 hours a day and replaced every one to two weeks to progress through the treatment. Periodic check-ins with Dr. Heinz ensure your treatment stays on track and allow for any necessary adjustments. Once the treatment is complete, retainers may be provided to maintain your beautifully aligned smile. Clear aligners are a comfortable, precise, and effective orthodontic solution, making them a popular choice for patients seeking convenience and excellent results.
