Advantages Of Clear Aligners

Advantages Of Clear Aligners:

2. These aligners can be removed: They don't attach to your teeth as traditional braces. Instead, they are slipped on over the teeth and worn for at least 20 to 22 hours a day. You can take them off while you eat and drink. Braces can be removed while eating and drinking. Aligners do not have such restrictions. Aligners can also be easily removed by flossing or brushing. This makes it easier to keep your teeth clean.

4. Clear aligners require fewer visits to the dentist: They don't need as many maintenance as braces. This means that they are less likely to need to be re-done as frequently. The majority of maintenance can be performed at home. Also, if your problems are minor, your dentist can directly prescribe aligners for your treatment. It might not be necessary to consult an orthodontist, saving time and money.
