Tired of Living with Crooked Teeth? Clear Braces May Be the Solution!

You feel that turn in your stomach whenever you meet a new client. You’re embarrassed to smile and show them your crooked teeth; however, you’re also worried about making the wrong impression if you don’t smile. You’ve considered orthodontic treatment, but you’re not sure which is more uncomfortable: being an adult with braces or being an adult with crooked teeth? The good news is that there is a solution for your situation with clear braces. Here’s what you should know.

What Is ClearCorrect?

Instead of using traditional brackets and wires to align your teeth, ClearCorrect utilizes clear aligners made of plastic. The aligners should be worn for at least 22 hours each day and changed every two weeks in order to achieve your desired results. Most patients are able to change their aligners at home, so ClearCorrect doesn’t require as many visits to your dentist to check in as braces would.

What Are the Benefits of Choosing ClearCorrect?

Besides being virtually invisible, ClearCorrect also offers many additional benefits for patients, such as:

• It’s a very efficient and effective treatment. Most cases can be completed in 10 to 18 months instead of years.
• Aligners are removeable, so there are no changes to your diet required during treatment.
• Aligners are smooth and comfortable to wear, so you don’t have the discomfort of wearing brackets and wires.
• Daily brushing and flossing is simple since aligners are removable.

ClearCorrect is an excellent choice for busy adults who would like to straighten their teeth with discretion and efficiency.

Is ClearCorrect Right for Me?

While ClearCorrect works well for many patients, it can’t correct complicated bite issues. Your ClearCorrect provider can determine if this is the right treatment to straighten your teeth by taking X-rays and providing an examination. If you move forward with ClearCorrect, your dentist will scan or take impressions of your teeth to create your unique set of aligners. If it’s determined that ClearCorrect won’t suit your needs, your dentist will recommend other treatments to help you meet your goals.

How Much Does ClearCorrect Cost?

Each case varies due to the length and complexity of your treatment plan. Your dentist will be able to tell you exactly how much your treatment will be during your consultation.

Many dental insurance plans include an orthodontic benefit that can be used for ClearCorrect. Your dentist’s financial coordinator will be happy to determine if you have insurance coverage for your treatment and help you fit  it comfortably into your budget.
