If you are unhappy with the appearance of your pearly whites, you are not alone. Whether you have stains on your teeth, stubborn blemishes, or spacing issues, our team is here to help. Treatments like professional whitening or bonding can help remove stains and improve the look of your smile. In today’s blog, your team at Fort Bliss Family Dentistry in TX is here today to talk about the benefits of clear aligners to straighten your smile.
Correct Your Teeth Without Braces
One of the main reasons patients put off orthodontic treatment is the worry that metal braces can be uncomfortable and unattractive. Traditional braces can help solve various problems ranging from mild spacing issues to overbites and more. However, they require metal braces and colored rubber bands to help gradually shift your teeth into place. With clear aligners, you can help correct your uneven smile without feeling self-conscious about your look. The trays fit snuggly to your teeth and can be removed when you want to eat, drink, or brush your teeth. This makes the process more comfortable and convenient that traditional orthodontic methods.
Get Started With A Consultation
Before you can get started with this discreet alignment process, you will first need a consultation with your dentist. During this appointment they may take X-rays and thoroughly examine your smile. Most teenage and adult patients with mild spacing concerns will be approved for this orthodontic process. After your consultation, measurements of your oral cavity will be taken and sent to a lab to create your custom series of trays. The process can take around one to two years to complete. During this time, you will wear the trays for the set amount of time before moving on to the next one. Each time you move trays, your pearly whites are adjusted as they are moved into the correct position. Remember to wear your aligners all day, including at night when you sleep.
Discover More Cosmetic Treatments
In addition to clear aligner treatment, we have several cosmetic services that can help you improve your smile’s appearance. Stains and discoloration on your pearly whites are a common complaint among many patients. We can help you target this concern with a professional teeth whitening treatment to help break down these stains. For discoloration that does not respond to whitening, we also offer bonding and porcelain veneers. Cosmetic bonding can help disguise the appearance of stubborn stains, chips, cracks, and more. Porcelain veneers can also be used to address various imperfections for a full smile transformation.
