A sophisticated\nscanning machine is used that maps out the shape and topography of your teeth\nwith lasers, or in some cases LEDs, to provide your dentist with a detailed\nimage of your mouth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your dentist will\nthen use a 3D image of your teeth that they have created with this information\nto show you how your realignment will be carried out and how your teeth will\nlook at the end of treatment. At <strong>Clear Braces Direct<\/strong> our\nteam will take you through this non-invasive process in a safe, professional\nsetting that will allow us to get you on the path to a straighter smile in no\ntime at all. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What are the benefits of this treatment?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are quite a\nnumber of advantages to going through with this treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As an example,\nthe entire process is non-invasive so there is not the usual discomfort of\nhaving impressions made to experience. The braces are also a great for patients\nthat may be feeling anxious about wearing them out and about in public, as they\nare completely transparent, which makes them hard to spot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They are also\neasy to clean and you can remove them at any time for cleaning your teeth,\neating meals or to have a short break. Generally you should be wearing your\nbrace for a minimum of 22 hours a day, but short breaks for at least two hours\na day shouldn\u2019t impact your realignment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tips for keeping your brace clean<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To keep your invisible braces looking healthy we recommend that you give them a light scrubbing with a cleaning solution at least once every second day. Doing this regularly will help to reduce staining as well as clear out any plaque or harmful bacteria that may start to build up between the brace and your teeth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are just a few interesting facts we can provided on our Invisalign process and how it can benefit our patients.
