Do you find yourself wishing you had straighter teeth but have previously shied away from traditional braces because you don’t want a mouth full of metal? Well, there is another option, and it’s the best of both worlds: clear braces. Our team members at Unique Orthodontics are the professionals to see for clear braces in Fresno, CA.
HOW DO THEY DO IT?
Clear braces work the same as metal ones, but the brackets are made out of a clear material. Braces are fitted by an expert orthodontist, who binds the braces to the teeth by using dental cement. Then, an adjustable wire is threaded through the brackets of the braces. And that’s all there is to it! The fitting itself usually takes just minutes.
BRIGHTER SMILE
Straighter teeth mean a nicer smile. And clear braces are much less conspicuous than traditional metal ones.
FEEL MORE CONFIDENT
Being on your way to straighter teeth will give you a newfound boost in confidence. Many people have braces, and to finally have your teeth fixed feels incredible.
BETTER ORAL HYGIENE
Food particles, bacteria, and plaque acids are major factors in gum disease and tooth decay. Straighter teeth gather less plaque. This is because cleaning and flossing are simply made easier. The more care you take of your pearly whites, the less chance there is of gum disease and tooth decay developing.
Also, braces lessen the risk of developing periodontal disease. Periodontal disease is the infection of the area directly around the teeth–the gums, bones, and ligaments. It starts with gingivitis–the infection of the gums. When teeth are incorrectly aligned, they gather more plaque, which can lead to periodontal disease.
LESS WEAR AND TEAR
Teeth that are misaligned can grind against each other, causing wear, and even eventually breaking.
