Straighten Your Teeth The Invisible and Comfortable Way with Orthodontic Clear Aligners

If you are an adult with misaligned teeth, you probably regret not straightening your teeth as a teenager. No worries! It’s never too late to achieve a beautifully straight smile. Buscemi Family Dentistry offers clear aligner therapy, a widely favored orthodontic option for those uncomfortable with traditional metal braces.

Under the supervision of Dr. Vincent Buscemi, clear braces could be the answer you’ve always wanted for a straight smile. Take the first step towards a beautiful smile by scheduling an appointment with our Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, office.

How does clear aligner therapy work?

All potential clear aligner users must visit an experienced dentist like Dr. Buscemi. The dentist evaluates your teeth and bite to ensure clear aligner therapy is the best treatment for your case. We supervise your treatment from start to finish to ensure you achieve your desired outcome with precision and safety.

To complete treatment, you’ll need about 18-30 aligners, but these can be more or less depending on the case’s complexity. You’ll wear the aligners for 20-22 hours daily, only removing them when eating or cleaning your teeth. Also, you should wear the aligners for two weeks before switching to the next set. Clear aligners move your teeth gradually, week by week, and within 12-18 months or less, you’ll achieve the desired outcome.

Benefits of orthodontic clear braces 

Invisible aligners fit your teeth like a glove. Clear aligners assert gentle pressure on the teeth to move them into a new, straighter position. Clear braces not only straighten teeth but also resolve malocclusion issues (like overbites and crossbites) to achieve a healthy bite. 

Some notable advantages of clear aligner treatment include:

• Discreet treatment: Invisible aligners are minimally visible, so no one will notice when you have them on
• Convenience: Clear aligners can be removed, allowing you to eat and drink all your favorite foods and beverages. Similarly, brushing and flossing teeth isn’t a problem because you simply remove the trays and wear them back when done
• Undisrupted life: What if you have an important event to attend? You don’t have to be tense about revealing orthodontic work during an upcoming wedding, party, or conference. You simply remove your aligners to focus fully on the event without feeling self-conscious about your smile
• Comfortable treatment: Clear aligners have no sharp edges to irritate your gums and cheeks during treatment. Moreover, the absence of wires and metals means no trips to the dentist for uncomfortable adjustments
• Faster treatment: In many cases, clear aligner treatment is usually 50% faster than traditional braces when worn as directed

Getting used to clear braces

As clear braces work to shift your teeth to a new alignment, it’s normal to experience some discomfort during the initial days. It means your treatment is working, and your teeth are moving to a new position. This discomfort is easily manageable using pain medications. Also, you may experience speech changes as your mouth adjusts to the trays. The reassuring news is that these discomforts subside after a few days.
