Clear Braces / Invisalign
Aligners, also known as invisible braces or clear braces, are a type of orthodontic treatment used to straighten teeth and correct mild to moderate dental misalignments. They are a popular alternative to traditional braces, as they offer a discreet and more aesthetically pleasing way to achieve a straighter smile. Clear aligners or Invisible aligners are custom-made, removable trays made from transparent plastic material. Each aligner is designed to fit closely over the teeth and gradually move them into their desired positions over time. Patients typically receive a series of aligners, and they switch to a new set every few weeks as their teeth progress through the treatment process.
A person may consider getting aligners treatment, also known as invisible braces or clear braces, in the following situations:
- Mild to Moderate Dental Misalignments: Clear aligners are most effective for correcting mild to moderate orthodontic issues, such as crowding, spacing, mild overbites, and mild underbites.
- Crooked or Misaligned Teeth: If a person has crooked or misaligned teeth that affect the appearance of their smile, clear aligners can be a suitable treatment option to straighten the teeth.
- Gaps Between Teeth: Clear aligners can close small to moderate gaps or spaces between the teeth, improving the overall alignment of the smile.
- Discreet Orthodontic Treatment: Individuals who prefer a more discreet and less visible orthodontic option often choose clear aligners, as they are nearly invisible when worn.
At Ridgetop Dental International you will undergo the following steps or procedure during your aligners or invisible braces or clear aligners treatment –
- Initial Consultation: The first step is a consultation with our orthodontist. The orthodontist will examine the patient’s teeth, take photographs & X-rays, and will discuss the options available to achieve the desired outcome. If clear aligners are deemed suitable for the patient’s orthodontic needs, a treatment plan will be provided.
- Digital Scanning or Impressions: The orthodontist will take digital scans of the patient’s teeth or traditional dental impressions. These scans are used to create a 3D model of the teeth, allowing the orthodontist to plan the entire aligners treatment process.
- Treatment Plan and Custom Aligners: Using the 3D model, the orthodontist designs a series of custom-made aligners that will gradually move the teeth into their desired positions. Each set of aligners is slightly different, applying controlled forces to specific teeth.
- Simulation (Video): The patient is provided with a simulation of the manner in the teeth movement during the treatment process for a better understanding and visualization of the desired outcome.
- Receiving the Aligners: Once the aligners are fabricated, the patient will receive their first set of aligners and instructions on how to wear and care for them.
- Wearing the Aligners: Patients are required to wear their aligners for 20-22 hours per day, removing them only when eating, drinking (other than water), brushing, and flossing.
- Progression and Switching Aligners: Every few weeks, the patient will switch to a new set of aligners, progressing through the series as the teeth gradually move into alignment. Regular check-ups with the orthodontist are scheduled to monitor the progress and make any necessary adjustments.
- Treatment Completion: Once the last set of aligners is worn, the teeth should be in their desired positions. In some cases, a retainer may be provided to help maintain the achieved results.
One of the primary advantages of clear aligners is their nearly invisible appearance, making them an appealing choice for individuals who want a discreet orthodontic option. Additionally, the aligners are removable, allowing patients to take them out during eating, brushing, and flossing, which makes maintaining oral hygiene more manageable compared to traditional braces.
Invisible braces or Clear aligners are a popular choice for adults and teenagers seeking orthodontic treatment without the visibility and maintenance concerns associated with conventional braces. They offer a more comfortable and convenient option to achieve a straighter, healthier smile. You can achieve the same with Ridgetop Dental International Clear Aligners, visit for a consultation to understand the requirements, benefits and duration of the treatment for your healthier smile.
