Invisible dental braces for adults and adolescents
Do you think your teeth are misaligned, crooked, or crooked? Today, in both adulthood and adolescence, the use of invisible braces can improve function and aesthetics, confidentially, while keeping your self-esteem and social relationships intact.
What invisible braces are for
Combines the effectiveness of orthodontic treatment with aesthetic requirements.
What is an invisible appliance
A set of transparent tooth alignment templates.
For a good result
Continuous and regular use, precise and consistent oral hygiene.
Invisible braces: a new noninvasive orthodontic technique
Constant use of a series of custom-designed templates, made of a nontoxic transparent polymer, allows the teeth to be realigned.
Virtual simulation makes it possible to visualize before the start of treatment what the future displacement of the teeth and the expected result will be. The orthodontist can thus check the progress of the treatment and the person see his or her future smile.
The templates are customized and should be replaced about every 10 days or as directed by the doctor, because each template contains the right information to gradually change the position of the teeth.
The advantages of invisible braces
Why use transparent masks:
they are invisible;
they are effective, comfortable and painless;
are removable: to be removed during meals and especially at the time of daily oral hygiene;
they allow better daily oral hygiene, compared to fixed braces.
For an effective result
The use of invisible braces requires a lot of perseverance: they need to be worn at least 20/22 hours a day for them to be effective.
The stages of the pathway
The first visit
During the first visit, the orthodontist examines teeth, gums, bone structures, and facial aesthetics to determine if you are suitable to begin treatment. Only then can he or she provide all the information and specifications and proceed with drafting the individualized treatment plan.
1
Delivery of clear masks
During the delivery of the templates, the orthodontist explains proper placement and handling. Generally, they move on to the next set every 10 days or so, depending on the extent of correction needed.
3
The procedure for maintaining the result obtained (restraint)
To maintain the results obtained with the application of the templates, we can place a micro-wire on the inner surface of the incisors (the front teeth) in order to keep them locked and aligned. Or use a special template every night. It is natural that over time there will be micro movements of the teeth, as happens in other parts of the body.
5
Personalized treatment plan
A 3D scan of the mouth, specific radiographs (panoramic and teleradiography) and photographs are taken. The data are processed by dedicated software, which can create a virtual simulation of the slippage of individual teeth. The customized set of clear aligners is made in the laboratory.
2
Follow-up visits during therapy
To monitor progress, follow-up visits are scheduled. At each visit, the orthodontist checks tooth movement and also assesses the degree of oral hygiene. If necessary, he recommends a session to remove tartar and plaque buildup, improve oral health, and prevent tooth decay.
4
Follow-up checks over time
Every two years the orthodontist checks the maintenance of the result: tightness of the wire (splinting), regular hygiene, micro movements. The treatment has a 5-year guarantee, during which time it is possible to intervene, in case of major movements, with subsequent templates.
