What are Dandy Clear Aligners?
Dandy Clear Aligners are clear, plastic trays custom made specifically for you that are worn over your teeth day and night. They gradually straighten your teeth by applying constant gentle pressure throughout your treatment plan. Clear aligners are more comfortable and discrete than traditional braces because they do not involve brackets or wires; you can remove them for meals and while brushing your teeth. Read the FAQs below and watch our videos to learn more about Dandy Clear Aligners.
What are the Benefits of Clear Aligners?
Easy to clean during treatment
Cleaning around braces can be difficult but clear aligners can be removed for brushing and flossing. This makes it easy for you to stay on top of your oral hygiene routine throughout your orthodontic treatment.
Discreet treatment
Clear aligners are much less visible than traditional braces. Some people may not even notice them at all. They will only notice your smile improving month by month.
Removed during meals
Since aligners are taken out for meals, you don’t need to worry about having food stuck on your brackets or wires.
Improve oral health
Crowded teeth make it difficult to clean away plaque which can harden into tartar and can cause cavities. Gaps between teeth can lead to damaged gums and bone. Properly spaced teeth are easier to clean and reduce the chances of developing unwanted conditions such as gingivitis, gum disease, bone loss and heart inflammation.
Increase self-confidence
When you like the way your smile looks, you will want to smile more often. This can improve the way you feel about yourself and brighten your outlook on each day.
