A clear path to an improved oral health

Picture this: You have a friend. He/she has crowded teeth that are visible while talking or smiling. You have become used to it. However, after a certain period of time, there is a pleasant but surprising change. All the teeth have suddenly aligned in picture perfect condition. You wonder When? And most importantly: How? Why you didn't notice the change before? Well, you do not need to put on your thinking hat to figure this one out. Chances are that your friend is undergoing orthodontic treatment. But you might ask how it went unnoticed? Again, the answer is simple: invisible or clear braces.

Over the years, the field of orthodontics has undergone a sea change. Based on the demands of patients, a number of innovations have been witnessed in this area. In the olden times, to treat malocclusion, one had to wear metal braces. The problem with these was their visibility. Also while wearing these, one had to follow certain restrictions so that they remained unaffected by any external force that might damage their structure. While talking or smiling they made the person wearing them feel awkward because they affect the overall visual appearance. So, to counter this, the material with which these braces are manufactured was changed and the result was a less noticeable appliance. It is difficult to spot clear braces as their material blends them with the colour of the teeth. Similarly, invisible braces are those that are fitted at the back of the teeth rather than the traditional way of fitting them in front.

Clearpath manufactures alingers which are nothing but plastic trays and are used in treating mild cases of malocclusions. These are fast becoming a popular alternative to the traditional methodologies that involved wearing braces. They are more user-friendly, flexible and affordable. Their unique properties make them bendier to the needs of patients. While fitting and removing braces can be tasking, in a stark contrast, the process of fitting aligners is as easy as it comes. They can be worn and removed without any supervision. This in turn leaves the lifestyle unaltered. The 3d technology clear aligners aren't age specific. Also, they can be designed keeping in view the requirements of different individuals. The whole process is computerised and its advantage is being taken in several clinics all over the world. The steps are simple: wear aligners and remove them when required. Keep in mind that they should not be removed unnecessarily. Only remove them while brushing or eating when needed.
