And, unsurprisingly, this has extended to the use\nof invisible aligners which can be delivered straight to your door. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have concerns that this treatment is not\nsuitable for you, or that it is dangerous, do not be alarmed; we can assure you\nthat under the supervision of a trained dentist or orthodontist, straightening\nyour teeth at home is perfectly safe and is easier to fit into a busy\nlifestyle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Clear Braces Direct <\/strong>we can offer straight teeth at home London<\/a> and have been doing so for many years. We have overseen the realignment process of thousands of patients remotely and are more than happy to discuss with you whether you are suitable for this treatment option. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But you may be curious to know if getting straight teeth at home London<\/strong> is right for you. You may also\nbe curious to learn if it is different from having your teeth straightened in a\nclinic. In the following FAQ section, we hope to answer these questions and\nmany more that we have received about this type of treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Am I suitable?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A key question we receive about getting straight teeth at home London<\/strong> from patients is suitability;\nhow do we assess suitability and can the invisible aligners that we provide\ncorrect all dental misalignments?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Provided you have a mild to moderate misalignment\nand have good overall dental health, then it is highly likely that you will be\nable to use an invisible aligner. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is worth noting that for more severe cases of\ndental misalignment, such as those involving molars or the rotation of teeth,\nyou will need to speak to an orthodontist about realignment options, as\ninvisible aligners are not able to correct these issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How long will the treatment take?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each day, you will need to wear the aligners\nprovided for around 22 hours. Depending on the severity of the dental\nmisalignment being treated, the process can take anywhere from 3 to 9 months,\nwith some patients needing a little bit longer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But each case is unique and following a\nconsultation with our team, we will be able to provide a better timeline for\nyour case. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What if I need a replacement aligner?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As aligners are removable, they do have a habit\nof becoming damaged or lost! It is part of life!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But if you lose your aligner, this can create\npanic as your treatment will have to stop temporarily.  However, if you do lose an aligner or you\ndamage one, simply contact our team and we will be able to send a replacement\naligner directly to your door. In the meantime, we may advise you to use the\nprevious aligner in the sequence to keep your teeth in a similar position and\nto prevent reversion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m worried the aligners aren\u2019t working; what should I do?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have concerns that your aligners are not working\nplease contact our team.\n\nAs part of the at-home treatment, we recommend that\nour patients send us weekly selfies so we can determine how well the aligners\nare working. But if you have concerns that your teeth are not moving correctly,\nfeel free to contact us.\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
