What is ClearCorrect®?
ClearCorrect® braces use clear aligners instead of metal brackets and wires to move teeth. These comfortable, clear plastic aligners are virtually invisible when properly cared for. At Elliott.N.Abrams D.D.S, we guide you on maintaining your aligners during treatment.
ClearCorrect® aligners are custom-made using an impression of your teeth. The lab creates a series of aligners to gradually move your teeth into place. Each aligner is worn for four to six weeks before switching to the next one. The aligners apply gentle pressure to shift teeth comfortably, ultimately resulting in a perfectly straight smile.
You receive all aligners at the start of the ClearCorrect® procedure, eliminating frequent visits to our Los Angeles office for replacements. This reduce s time spent in the dental chair compared to traditional braces.
ClearCorrect® vs. Traditional Braces
Traditional metal braces effectively straighten teeth and correct misaligned jaws, but their visibility and discomfort can deter some individuals. The wires, brackets, and rubber bands can affect appearance and daily comfort, which may not suit busy or professional lifestyles.
Metal braces can be challenging to keep clean due to food getting stuck between brackets, requiring special flossing tools. At Elliott.N.Abrams D.D.S, we assist patients in managing their treatment without significant dietary changes. However, dealing with food particles stuck in braces can be inconvenient and frustrating, necessitating more frequent brushing and flossing throughout the day.
ClearCorrect® aligners offer a convenient alternative to traditional braces, allowing patients to remove them while eating and avoid food restrictions. Worn for at least 22 hours a day, ClearCorrect® lets patients maintain their lifestyle without the worry of food getting stuck or feeling awkward. This makes it easier to enjoy meals and social interactions with confidence.
ClearCorrect® braces allow patients to remove aligners for activities like sports, playing musical instruments, or singing. This flexibility makes it easier to wear a mouth guard during sports, which is essential for athletes. If you're active and live in the Los Angeles area, schedule a consultation to see how ClearCorrect® can simplify your orthodontic treatment.
