Clear Correct
Another option, which is very popular among teenagers and adults, is Clear Correct. This teeth straightening system involves using clear, plastic oral appliances that resemble a retainer to gradually shift teeth. Clear Correct utilizes the same principles as traditional braces without the need for fixed oral appliances. Patients will wear removable plastic appliances called aligners. Worn over teeth like a retainer, sets of clear aligners are worn in succession to straighten teeth with consistent, gentle pressure.
Clear Correct can improve spacing issues between teeth such as gaps and crowding along with promoting a healthier occlusion or one’s bite. Clear braces are advantageous because they are removable for meals and oral hygiene and look very discreet. In fact, those who wear Clear Correct aligners can smile without conspicuous looking metal and wire braces.
