Top 5 Benefits of Clear Aligners over Traditional Braces

Clear aligners are a state-of-the-art system whose objective is to correct alterations in the bite and in the alignment and position of the teeth to achieve a bite with harmonious and aligned contacts, a healthier mouth and teeth that fulfill their function correctly.

Among its most outstanding advantages we can mention that it is a totally personalized system since it adapts to the size of the patient's teeth and arch and, of course, it is transparent, which gives it very good esthetic properties.

Although they share objectives with traditional braces, it should be noted that they have certain aspects that are an advantage over the conventional alternative, which is why many patients opt for this innovative system. Read on and we will delve a little deeper into its 5 main benefits.

Aesthetics:

Aesthetics:

As they are transparent, they are practically imperceptible to the naked eye. This makes them a more discreet and esthetic option than traditional braces. This in turn favors the patient's self-esteem, since their image improves not only at the end of the treatment   but also during it.

Comfort:

As it is a system composed of plastic splints that wrap around the teeth, there is no risk of suffering injuries or sores in the soft tissues, as occurs with traditional braces due to the friction of the wires.

In addition, since they are not cemented to the teeth, the risk of damaging the tooth enamel when they are removed (as can happen with braces) is eliminated. They are also ideal for people who suffer from bruxism, as they can act as a discharge splint, protecting the teeth and preventing wear to their structure.

Convenience:

The clear aligners are easy to put on and take off, which makes it a practical and comfortable system, and the patient gets used to wearing them very quickly. As they are removable splints, the patient has the possibility of removing them whenever necessary, for example before brushing their teeth and also for cleaning them.

This is a very important point in their favor, since by allowing proper dental cleaning and flossing, plaque control and less accumulation of food debris is achieved, thus reducing the risk of tooth decay and periodontal disease. Remember that unlike clear aligners, traditional braces are not removable, which can make tooth brushing difficult and can favor the accumulation of bacteria and food debris between the teeth.

Predictability of results:

Its software allows the dentist and patients to preview the result of the treatment with an accuracy of over 95%. This also gives a fairly accurate idea of the duration of treatment, since it is known in advance how many aligners the patient will need.

Excellent resistance properties:

The splints are made of highly durable, resistant and flexible materials, which help prevent them from breaking easily in case of falls or due to jaw pressure forces.
