Much like traditional braces, clear aligners work by gently shifting the teeth into proper alignment. For the duration of your treatment, you will receive a tray (or set of trays) every one to two weeks. With each new tray, you will be one step closer to reaching your ideal smile.
Of course, what patients love about clear aligners is that they are discreet – most people won’t be able to tell you are undergoing orthodontic treatment. Therefore, you can smile confidently throughout your smile journey.
There are many reasons to choose clear aligners over traditional braces. Here are some of the reasons Hoyos & Pinto Dentistry patients gave on why they ultimately chose clear aligners:
There are some people that like the appearance of braces. But, some people would rather not be seen having a “metal mouth.” As clear aligners are practically invisible, you can smile confidently, knowing that most people won’t be able to tell you are undergoing orthodontic treatments.
Clear aligners are crafted from smooth, BPA-free thermoformed plastic, which many users report to be much more comfortable than traditional bracket-and-wire braces, which can chafe or irritate the lips and inner cheek. Then there’s the discomfort of getting food stuck in the brackets and wires, which isn't an issue with clear aligners.
Clear aligners are very convenient. You can remove your clear aligners when you eat, as well as brush and floss your teeth. Therefore, you won’t have to worry about stains on and between your teeth once you complete your orthodontic treatments. For best results, we recommend that you wear your clear aligners at least 22 hours per day.
Compared to traditional braces, orthodontic clear aligners typically require fewer visits with your dentist. Every one to two weeks you will receive a new set of clear aligners until your treatment is complete.
Hoyos & Pinto currently offers Spark Aligners. Spark Aligners are made with TruGEN™, the latest innovation in clear aligner material. Spark’s nearly invisible aligners are clearer, more comfortable, and stain less than the leading aligner brand.
