CROWN & BRIDGES TREATMENT .
In a nutshell, clear aligner therapy (CAT) uses clear plastic trays to correct different orthodontic issues. For the treatment to work, patients have to wear these trays almost 22 hours each day for the specified time until the treatment is done. They operate under the same principle as metal braces, in that they move the teeth to the desired position by applying pressure gently to your teeth. The Texas City Dental in Texas City is conveniently located near t La Marque, Galveston, and Hitchcock area is conveniently located near to the HEB and ROSS market complex is low cost dental office by me.
However, most people, when they are thinking about clear aligners, they think of Invisalign. But to be more precise, Invisalign is the name of the product, and Align Technology manufactures it. Invisalign is not the only clear aligner. There are other clear aligners such as Clear Correct . These are all examples of clear align therapy, the same way that Toyota, Mercedes Benz, or even Ford are car brands.
Clear braces use a series of clear removable aligners to straighten your teeth without metal wires or brackets. The aligners are made through a 3-D computer imaging technology. You wear each set of aligners for about 2 weeks, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss.
As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will move – little by little, week by week – until they have straightened to the final position .
Total treatment time averages 9 – 15 months and the average number of aligners worn during treatment is between 18 and 30, but both will vary from case to case.
