Clear Teeth Aligners
Crooked or misaligned teeth have a major impact on both your smile and the health of your mouth. They can cause uneven wear, significant jaw pain, and can greatly increase your risk of developing gum disease and tooth decay. Traditionally, metal braces have been used to correct crooked teeth, and are highly effective. However, their visibility often makes them undesirable. At Newport Dental Group, we provide Clear Aligners as an alternative to traditional metal braces.
Clear Aligners provides an alternative to traditional metal braces. They consist of hard, clear plastic aligners, which are created from impressions of your mouth. These aligners are completely invisible when they are placed on your teeth. They are also removable. However, to achieve the best possible results in the shortest amount of time, they need to be worn between 20 and 22 hours each day, and should only be removed to eat and to brush your teeth.
Clear Aligners treatment involves the use of several sets of aligners, each new set slightly different than the one before it. Each set of aligners is meant to be worn for two weeks at a time. The hard plastic puts pressure on your teeth, which then places pressure on your periodontal ligaments. This causes the ligaments to widen, loosening your teeth. The aligners then move your teeth into proper alignment.
