We scan\nthe mouth before commencing treatment to allow us to create trays that are\ntailor-made to the requirements of the individual; allowing confidence in the\nfinal results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having been provided with aligners, our patients then wear\nthem for around two weeks at a time, before moving to the next set. In this\nway, the teeth are gradually moved into a better position with minimal\ndiscomfort and at a pace that our patients are usually very comfortable with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For people who are considering <a href=\"https:\/\/www.clearbraces-direct.co.uk\/\">Clear\nBraces Direct in London<\/a> treatment, here is our guide to ensuring the\nbest possible results at the end of the process and beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Wearing for results<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An important factor to bear in mind when opting for\northodontic treatment with aligners is whether or not the patient is able to\ncommit to wearing them almost constantly. If they are worn for 22 hours in\nevery 24-hour period, then good results can be expected. However, if the\npatient is continuously removing and replacing the trays in order that they may\nindulge in snacks, drinks, smoke or vape; then they may find that the end\nresult is not quite as impressive as it could be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Patients can of course still eat and drink, however, the\ntiming of this should be carefully planned: with meals, drinks and snacks being\nconsumed within a total of two hours over any day. The upside of this is that\nbad habits like overindulging in snacks or drinks can be minimised by\nundergoing Invisalign treatment: some people may find that it\u2019s not just the smile\nthat sees improvements!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Keeping clean<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The success of teeth straightening with aligners is affected\nby how clean the trays are kept; and also general oral hygiene. The braces\nshould be thoroughly rinsed with cold water and teeth should be cleaned before\nreplacing after meal or snack times. Patients should continue to clean their\nteeth and gums regularly as well as using floss or interdental brushes. When\nthe straightening process is complete, most people want their teeth to look\nclean and healthy as part of the package. The onus is on the patient to ensure\nthis, however regular visits to the dentist for check-ups and professional\ncleaning can make the process easier, and is an important part of maintaining\noral health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Wear a retainer<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here at <strong>Clear Braces Direct in London<\/strong>,\nwe offer retainers after the treatment has been completed. Prospective patients can find\nout more about maintaining the position of the teeth after wearing aligners and\nlearn about how this is an easy way to protect the investment made.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Clear braces, also known as Invisalign, are chosen by our patients as a convenient and relatively easy means of improving the alignment of the teeth.
