Invisalign Clear Aligners & Alternatives Parma

Metal-Free Teeth Straightening Solutions

Traditional braces may be effective, but their visibility often keeps patients from choosing them when considering orthodontic treatment. At Parma Family Dentistry, we offer Invisalign clear aligners as well as other alternatives to make straightening teeth a more enjoyable experience. Instead of relying on metal to do the job, our Invisalign, SureSmile, and ClearCorrect aligners can shift teeth in the right direction without bringing attention to them. If you are interested in learning more about these options, contact our office to schedule an appointment.

SureSmile Clear Aligners

Consisting of BPA-free plastic trays, SureSmile Clear Aligners are virtually invisible and can gradually move teeth into their desired position within 6-18 months (on average). With the help of advanced technology that generates more accurate results by producing smooth, comfort-focused trays, SureSmile removes the potential for surprises throughout treatment while allowing patients to experience a more flexible form of orthodontic care.

Invisalign Clear Aligners

As the original aligner system, Invisalign is a reliable solution that uses clear trays to treat mild to moderate cases of crowded and crooked teeth, gaps, and misaligned bites. When worn 20-22 hours a day, teeth will shift with gently applied pressure until optimal results are achieved. The average timeframe for treatment is 12-18 months, but this can vary from person to person based on the severity of their case.

ClearCorrect Clear Aligners

Similar to Invisalign and SureSmile Aligners, ClearCorrect uses transparent trays to move teeth into proper alignment, effectively addressing overcrowding, gaps, and bite misalignment. Thinner than other aligners, their straight-across (not scalloped) design uses your gums to generate greater force so that teeth will move more quickly over time (while still keeping you comfortable).

The Benefits of Clear Aligners

No matter which type of clear aligner system you choose, you can expect there to be endless benefits to enjoy, such as:

  • Discreet Solution – Instead of walking around with a mouth full of metal, others will never know you’re undergoing orthodontic treatment with clear aligners because of how see-through they are.
  • Greater Flexibility – Traditional braces remain affixed to your teeth, but clear aligners can be easily removed before eating and drinking, and you can clean them without having to use specialized dental instruments.
  • No Food Restrictions – Apart from being mindful of stain-causing foods, you can eat whatever you like and not have to worry about anything getting stuck in your braces. Clear aligners must be removed before consuming any kind of food or beverage (apart from water).
  • Faster Results – Although this is not always the case, as each person and situation are different, clear aligners typically generate faster results than traditional braces.
