5 benefits of wearing clear aligners instead of traditional braces


One of the benefits of wearing the aligners and removing them to eat allows you to consume food without limitations. With traditional braces, certain foods can become entangled within the wire structure and make them difficult to clean. With the clear aligner systems, there are no limitations in which foods can be consumed, as long as you are diligent with your oral hygiene in brushing and flossing after each meal. Some of the other advantages of clear aligners and clear braces include …

1.       Approximating the treatment duration a little more precisely than braces

2.       Avoiding extractions of premolars

3.       Less frequent trips to the dental chair

4.       Healthier periodontal tissue and less risk of enamel decalcification

5.       Esthetics: Clear aligners are often not visible, allowing you to smile !
