Would you like to straighten your teeth in a subtle, less blatant way? For some patients, traditional braces are not a realistic option. If you are one of those individuals, our prosthodontist, Dr. George Eifler, may recommend that you try ClearCorrect. When you come to Valley Dental Group, we can determine if you are a good candidate for this orthodontic treatment. Call our office at 602-956-2260 to schedule your consultation for ClearCorrect in Phoenix, Arizona.
ClearCorrect aligners are clear, removable braces that are virtually invisible. They are an alternative to metal braces and can be used to treat a wide variety of orthodontic problems. The length of time you will need to wear them will depend on your individual orthodontic needs. However, most patients wear them for about 12 months. Each aligner is worn for about two weeks before being replaced with the next aligner in the series, gradually moving your teeth into the desired position over time. The main downside of ClearCorrect aligners is that they may not be suitable for everyone, specifically those with severe cases of misalignment. Our prosthodontist will need to assess your individual needs before determining if they are right for you.
During your consultation, our prosthodontist will assess your teeth and determine if ClearCorrect aligners are your best treatment option. If so, we will take impressions of your teeth, which will be used to create your custom-made aligners. The cost of these oral appliances will vary depending on your individual orthodontic needs. However, they are generally more affordable than traditional metal braces.
These aligners may be right for you if you have mild to moderate misalignment of your teeth. The only way to know for sure that you are a candidate for clear aligners is to consult with an orthodontist. Be sure to give us a call to schedule your consultation today and see if ClearCorrect is the right treatment for you.
