Movable braces, also known as removable braces or clear aligners, are a popular orthodontic treatment option designed to straighten teeth and correct bite issues. Unlike traditional fixed braces, which are permanently attached to the teeth, movable braces consist of clear, custom-fitted aligners that can be easily removed and reinserted by the patient. This innovative approach to orthodontic care offers numerous advantages, including enhanced comfort, improved aesthetics, and greater convenience. Movable braces are suitable for patients of all ages and can effectively address a wide range of orthodontic concerns, from mild to moderate malocclusions. Whether you’re seeking to achieve a straighter smile or improve your overall oral health, movable braces provide a flexible and discreet solution tailored to your individual needs.
The patient meets with an orthodontic provider for a comprehensive evaluation of their dental health and orthodontic needs. During this consultation, the provider discusses the patient's treatment goals and determines if they are a suitable candidate for movable braces.
Digital impressions or molds of the patient's teeth are taken using advanced intraoral scanning technology. These digital impressions serve as the basis for creating a 3D model of the patient's teeth, which guides the design of the custom aligners.
Using specialized software, the orthodontic provider develops a customized treatment plan that outlines the precise movements needed to achieve the desired tooth alignment. This plan serves as a roadmap for fabricating the series of aligners.
The custom aligners are fabricated using state-of-the-art manufacturing techniques, ensuring a precise fit and optimal comfort for the patient. Each aligner in the series is designed to gradually shift the teeth into alignment according to the treatment plan.
The patient wears each set of aligners for a specified period, typically two weeks, before advancing to the next set in the series. Throughout treatment, the orthodontic provider monitors the patient's progress and makes any necessary adjustments to ensure that the teeth are moving as planned.
After completing the series of aligners, the patient may be prescribed retainers to maintain the newly aligned position of the teeth and prevent them from shifting back to their original positions.
