Why have aligner treatment?
The primary goal of aligner treatment is to correct any teeth that are crooked, misaligned or have unwanted spacing and improve how the upper and lower teeth meet.
Not only can this improve your smile’s appearance, but it can also help eliminate unwanted wear and tear on the teeth. Aligning your teeth properly within the arch can also reduce the risk of dental diseases such as cavities and gum disease by allowing the teeth to be cleaned more effectively and efficiently.
How do they work?
Our team at Red Hill Dental Practice prescribe aligners as a reliable way to enhance your function, appearance, and overall health of your smile. They work by using clear plastic trays custom fabricated from your current smile. Digital scans are taken of the teeth and used in the software to create an image of what your smile appears like now and what can be achieved with aligner treatment. A series of trays are created, which you wear one at a time, each for up to two weeks before proceeding to the next. As treatment progresses, your smile is transformed.
Am I a good candidate for aligners?
- Do you have crooked teeth?
- Are you unhappy with the way your smile looks?
- Are your teeth crowded?
- Do you have large gaps between your teeth?
- Do you have an under or an overbite?
If you answer yes to any of these questions, then dental aligners are something you may wish to consider. Many of our patients with mild to moderate misalignment of their smile have enjoyed the advantages of aligner treatment. Our Red Hill Dental Practice team can evaluate you to determine if you might benefit from this treatment.
