What Is ClearCorrect™?
ClearCorrect™ is a clear aligner system used to straighten teeth as an alternative to traditional braces. These custom-made, transparent aligners are virtually invisible and are designed to fit snugly over your teeth, gently and gradually moving them into their desired position.
Is ClearCorrect™ Better Than Braces?
“Better” will be determined by your individual needs and lifestyle, but ClearCorrect™ offers several advantages:
- Aesthetics: The aligners are almost invisible, making them a discreet option.
- Comfort: Without metal brackets or wires, ClearCorrect™ tends to be more comfortable.
- Convenience: Aligners are removable for eating, brushing, and flossing.
- Customization: Treatment is tailored specifically to your dental needs.
Alternatives to ClearCorrect™
Several other orthodontic treatments can accomplish the same goals as ClearCorrect™:
- Traditional Braces: Metal brackets and wires that are very effective for complex issues.
- Ceramic Braces: Similar to traditional braces but with tooth-colored or clear brackets.
- Lingual Braces: Placed on the backside of teeth, hidden from view.
- Other Clear Aligners: We also offer Invisalign®, which has similar benefits to ClearCorrect™.
What Is the Process for Getting ClearCorrect™?
- Consultation: Dr. Kostrzewski assesses your teeth and discusses if ClearCorrect™ is the right option for you.
- Custom Plan: We create a customized treatment plan, including 3D images of your teeth.
- Receiving Your Aligners: Once your aligners are ready, you’ll receive them with customized instructions on use.
- Regular Check-Ups: Periodic appointments to monitor progress and make adjustments as needed.
How Long Do I Need to Wear ClearCorrect™ Retainers?
After you finish the ClearCorrect™ treatment, you’ll need to wear retainers that will keep your new smile in place. Retainers are crucial to prevent your teeth from returning to their original, crooked places. The duration of wear depends on the individual’s needs, but typically you’ll need to wear the retainers all day and night for the first few months, just as you did with the aligners. After a while, Dr. Kostrzewski will determine when you can transition to wearing the retainers just at night.
