Here’s a scenario that most (if not all) patients with braces can relate to.
You have misaligned teeth and have only heard of braces as an effective treatment to straighten them. You book an appointment with your dentist reluctantly; the treatment puts a dent in your budget and has been notorious for discomfort, but you go with it anyway. You want a perfect smile for those selfies, and a little discomfort can’t stop you now.
Your dentist glues some permanent metal brackets to your teeth and weaves a wire through them. You already have images running through your head of what your friends will think, but gulp down the second thoughts at the promise of photo-ready teeth by the end of the plan.
Then comes nightfall, and the throbbing pain sets in. Your head hurts, your gums swell, and your jaw is sensitive to touch. You recall all the food restrictions prescribed by your doctor and get a little teary-eyed, and the sight of metal on your smile shakes up your confidence.
You curl up in your bed, thinking, ‘My braces hurt so bad I want to cry.’
Hey, don’t suffer in silence. It’s not too late to save yourself from the agony and opt for a seamless, discreet, and less painful option to straighten your teeth. Oh, and did we mention it is also up to three times less expensive?
Here’s all you need to know about transitioning from metal braces to ALIGNERCO Clear braces.
Understand What Stage You Are At
If you’re in the last month of your metal brace journey, we recommend you go through with it. If, however, it has been only a few weeks, there’s hope.
ALIGNERCO Clear Braces can address dental misalignments like teeth gaps, overbite, underbite, spacing, and crowding at your home. They however, don’t treat complex cases such as overbite and teeth with no rotations. If you know you don’t have these severe cases, get in touch with us, and we can devise a course of action for you.
Begin Your Plan
You may have to visit your dentist one last time (we hope) to get those metal brackets removed and then begin your teeth straightening from your house.
Order your kit and begin your journey towards a flawless smile, minus the excruciating pain and visits to the dentist.
Benefits
Here is a list of all the perks you get when you sign up for a Clear braces treatment plan.
Appearance
A major selling point of clear aligners is all the benefits of braces but with discretion. These clear braces are barely noticeable; no one can tell you have them on.
Comfort and Convenience
Fewer Food Restrictions
We know braces come with a strict food protocol. However, you can munch on most of your favorite meals with the Clear Aligner treatment plan.
Hygiene
With braces, some patients are directed to brush their teeth up to three times a day to get rid of any food particles stuck in the wires. Aligners can snap off easily. They are removed before meals and brushing, which helps ensure optimum oral hygiene.
Less Painful
The most pain does not come from the installation of braces; it comes from the tightening of wires that put pressure on the teeth to align them. This pain can last up to a week and may require patients to resort to painkillers and ice packs.
Aligners are wire-free. They come in numbered sets, that gently shift your teeth with each new set. Some pain and discomfort may arise, but it is nothing compared to braces.
No Dentist Visits
They offer a ton of convenience with at-home treatment plans. From the very first stage of impressions to the last stage of retainers, customers don’t have to take a step out of their house to get their hands on a teeth straightening treatment.
Added Discretion
Aligners provide flexibility with two options: Daytime and Nighttime wear only. Both offer discreet and comfortable teeth straightening, but nighttime aligners require less wear time and straighten your teeth while you sleep with minimum daytime interference.
Duration and Cost
ALIGNERCO Clear braces are up to three times less expensive than conventional metal braces, and the treatment duration is relatively shorter too. In addition, there are no clinic costs to consider, and considering your time as a valuable resource you can save a significant amount of money by leaving out the orthodontist visits.
If you've realized that you don’t want chained teeth that will be yanked every couple of weeks, this is your sign to make the transition to clear and relatively pain-free removable braces.
