<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nAnd as the rise in popularity surrounding\ninvisible aligners continues, our team has answered a fair few questions about\nthese treatment options and their suitability for the majority of our patients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But, as we know all there is to know about this\naligner, we are more than happy to advise you on the potential usage of it when\nstraightening your teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Because\nat Clear Braces Direct<\/strong>, our team has\nbeen using one of the world’s most famous invisible aligners to help our\npatients get the straighter miles that they want and deserve. Invisalign London<\/a> is suitable\nfor patients with mild-to-moderate misalignment who wish to get straighter\nteeth with visible discretion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Now, back to those questions that we are asked\nabout Invisalign London<\/strong>! Here, our team answers 5 of the most common ones\nthat we receive, allowing you to learn more about the aligner before you\napproach our team about it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Do the aligners hurt?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n When compared to traditional braces, Invisalign London<\/strong> has a very different method of\naction. Rather than the brace needing to\nbe altered or adjusted (as is the way with traditional orthodontics), each\naligner in the set is designed to move your teeth in smaller increments over\ntwo weeks. So, in theory, there should be less discomfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But remember, an aligner still needs to move your\nteeth so, you may need to invest in some over-the-counter pain relief for those\ndays when you switch between aligners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Is the treatment expensive?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Invisible aligners do not require adjusting or\ntrips to a hygienist to keep your teeth and gums healthy for the duration of\nthe treatment. Ergo, despite them being\nmore trendy amongst dental patients, many see them as more affordable,\nespecially when compared to other orthodontic tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At Clear\nBraces Direct<\/strong>, we are aware that money does not grow on trees and so, we\nare happy to offer suitable patients financing options to help them spread the\ncost of their treatment into monthly increments. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Do aligners take longer than regular braces?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n In a word, no. It is very unlikely that wearing\nan aligner will take longer to straighten your teeth than a regular brace,\nespecially in your adult years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Traditional braces can take up to 3 years to\nstraighten your teeth, whereas an aligner on average, takes between 3 to 6\nmonths. But this period is based on the severity of the misalignment being\ntreated, and how dedicated you are to wearing the aligners for the required 22\nhours a day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n How do I care for the aligners at home?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Aligners are easy to care for and each day, you\nshould aim to clean them under a cold tap to remove any debris. This will keep\nyour gums and teeth healthy and will keep the aligners clear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You should also aim to carry your aligners when\nyou are not wearing them in the carry case provided. If you have an issue with\na lost aligner or a damaged aligner, contact our team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Will I need to wear a retainer afterwards?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Yes, you will need to wear a retainer after using an invisible aligner to ensure that your teeth do not revert to their previous positions. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" When undertaking any dental treatment, from a filling to a dental implant, you as the patient will likely have some questions for your dentist.
