Clearcorrect will give you a beautiful, straight smile without anyone even noticing that you are wearing braces. Unlike traditional treatments Clearcorrect employs a sequence of discrete aligners to gently manoeuvre the teeth into alignment. Clearcorrect is a discreet brace system, which uses a cycle of clear aligners to align the teeth. Each aligner is shaped differently to encourage the gradual movement of teeth, the aligners being worn for 14 days at a time and swapped for the next in the cycle.

Who would benefit from Clearcorrect?

​

Clearcorrect is perfect for anyone who has:

• Spaced teeth

• Overcrowding

• Crossbite

• Overbite

• Underbite

What is the procedure?

Once your dentist has ascertained that you are an appropriate candidate for Clearcorrect, they will draw-up a personalised treatment plan. The treatment process is fairly simple and during an initial consultation the dentist will discuss treatment expectations and start planning your treatment. We take a digital 3d impression using a special camera to send to the lab for analysis. You will be able to see computerised 3D images and potential results using computer software.

Your custom-made aligners will be delivered to your dentist and then given to you. You are recommended to wear each aligner for around 2 weeks and then swap it with the subsequent aligner after this time. Most people have a total of between 18 and 36 aligners and so treatment typically takes between 9 and 18 months, and they need to be worn for at least 21 hours a day for optimum results.

Does Clearcorrect hurt?

The treatment may cause minor issues of pain when teeth are moving and can take a little bit of getting used. There may be slight saliva increase but the Clearcorrect brace treatment is relatively pain free. Most patients report much higher levels of comfort compared to traditional braces.

How long does treatment take to complete?

Treatment is based on each individual case but can be anything from three months to a year. Your dentist can tell you individual treatment times during a consultation.

Disadvantage of Clearcorrect

In more severe cases, Clearcorrect will not be suitable for orthodontic treatment as they are best used to treat under and overbites, crooked teeth and teeth gaps. Other forms of treatment may be needed instead. It is uncommon, but as they are removable, the braces can sometimes be lost or people may not wear them for long enough each day. This will impact how quickly treatment is achieved.
