The History
Crooked Teeth, Underbite, Overbite, and Tooth Crowding are common Teeth Alignment Issues. Metal braces have been used for centuries to correct these problems. However, clear aligners offer an almost invisible alternative that has transformed orthodontic treatment. Leveraging advanced 3D imaging, clear aligners like White Stone Aligners gently move teeth into perfect alignment through a series of customized clear trays
What are Clear Aligners?
Clear aligners provide several key benefits over metal braces. Their transparency allows them to be worn discreetly, avoiding any embarrassment from visible hardware in the mouth. The smooth surfaces are also more comfortable, preventing wire cuts or bracket irritations. Patients love the option to remove teeth aligners for eating as well as better oral hygiene with flossing and brushing.
How Clear Aligners Work?
Clear aligners work through gradual force, applying slight pressure to teeth each time a new set is worn. White Stone Aligners create a personalized treatment plan using sophisticated 3D scans of the mouth. From there, patients follow a schedule, wearing each new set of teeth aligners for about two weeks as their teeth shift position. Strict compliance with the daily wear time, usually 20-22 hours, is important to achieve the planned results.
Issues Corrected by Clear Aligners
Clear Aligners correct several common dental issues. They are effective for closing gaps, correcting over or under bites, and managing crowding where teeth are too tightly packed. Beyond improving aesthetics, straight teeth also aid chewing, speaking and preventing excessive wear patterns that could lead to cavities. Clear aligners may even help relieve jaw pain caused by improper alignment over time.
