What Are Clear Braces?

Clear braces are a form of dental care that offer straight teeth without relying on the old method of wire braces. 

These clear aligners are perfect for anyone shy about wearing traditional braces. Clear braces are a series of transparent aligners that are custom-made and gradually straighten your teeth over time. 

Clear braces are worn in four phases. Each phase is about three weeks and requires you to wear a new set of aligners. Your clear braces should be worn all the time except when you are eating or drinking. 

Dental care and check-ups are required between each phase so your dentist can check on the progress the clear braces are making. These aligners should not have any negative impact on your oral hygiene or daily oral health routines.

Are They Right for Me?

If you feel insecure about your teeth, you're not alone. About half of Americans feel insecure about their teeth, but the good news is that there are options to solve this.  

Clear braces are great for you if you want to perfect your smile without having to wear traditional wire braces. If you don't mind wearing invisible aligners for a year or two, depending on how much treatment you need, these may be right for you.

Keep in mind that opting to wear clear braces means you will also have to commit to keeping your braces clean. You will also have to maintain them and make time for dental appointments to upkeep them and get your new aligners during each phase. 

Clear braces are best for teenagers and adults. Children who do not have all their molars and senior citizens with complicated oral issues should consult with their dentist about alternatives to clear braces.
