There Are Several Advantages to Clear Braces
Clear braces in Pasadena have many excellent benefits.
Of course Invisalign, or Clear Correct braces have several advantages, but the most obvious is that they are clear. This helps avoid embarrassment or feeling like your mouth draws unwanted attention. Next, they are removable. Unlike metal braces, you take clear braces out when eating or drinking, except with water. This also allows you to eat whatever you would like instead of restricting foods like caramel and popcorn from your diet because they can stick to or dislodge traditional braces easily. You are also able to take them off to brush and clean your teeth, which helps prevent tooth decay during your treatment. They are also easy to clean and very comfortable, especially when compared to the metal brackets and pieces involved in the alternative. Lastly, they are affordable and virtually the same cost as traditional metal braces.
The Invisalign Treatment Process
Hundreds of happy smiles have emerged from Walnut Hill Dental Group.
Getting Your Tooth Impressions
Once you’ve made the decision to proceed with Pasadena Invisalign treatment, we’ll set up your subsequent visit so that we may take X-rays, photos, and imprints of your teeth. These pictures will be used by our orthodontist to create a computerized 3-D representation of your teeth. Our dentists will create your set of clear aligners just for you using the digital image.
Wearing Your Custom Aligners
Our team will demonstrate how to insert your initial Invisalign trays, how to clean and maintain your aligners, and how frequently you should wear the aligners when you come for your treatment appointment. Your aligners will typically need to be worn for 20 to 22 hours a day, every day. All day and night, you wear your aligners; however, you take them out to eat, clean your teeth, and floss. Your teeth will progressively migrate into the proper position while you wear a new pair of aligners every two weeks.
Completed Treatment Celebration
Your treatment will be finished once you have worn your aligners faithfully for the allotted period. Now is the time to rejoice! But Walnut Hill Dental Group offers much more than that. Like with many orthodontic procedures, you’ll receive a personalized retainer built from your most recent set of aligners that you’ll be required to wear in order to keep your teeth in their proper positions. We employ retainers that are composed of a robust, durable substance that does not easily break or shatter.

Are Clear Braces The Treatment For You?
Invisalign in Pasadena can fix multiple alignment problems.
When you visit us at Walnut Hill Dental Group to discuss your options for an aligner, we will assess your options based on a few things. First, we will examine your teeth to see what problems are present that need to be tended to. Invisalign in Pasadena, or Clear Correct, is a great option for an aligner, but some cases are too severe for it to treat 100% effectively, like a large overbite. However, if you have an over bite that isn’t too significant, underbite, crossbite, crowded or gapped teeth, clear braces can usually do the trick. Even if Invisalign may not be an option for you, we also offer metal braces in Pasadena for severe problems. Another factor for Invisalign or Clear Correct to consider is your age. Your permanent teeth must all be in before receiving alignment treatment with clear braces. This makes Clear Correct a great option for adults and teenagers, but not pre-teens or children. Adults and teens usually choose Invisalign over metal braces simply because of their transparent appearance. Lastly, the most important thing to consider with teeth aligners is your dedication to perfecting your smile. Like we mentioned earlier, clear braces are removable. In order for them to work, they must be in place for at least 22 hours of the day. If you aren’t dedicated to wearing them, your treatment may be unsuccessful. With that being said, with Invisalign, your dental care relies on you just as much as it does your dentist. Ultimately, clear braces provide you with an easier and more comfortable way to correct your teeth, but they also require more responsibility.
