Clear Aligners in Beachwood, OH

Many adults may want to improve the alignment of their teeth for a variety of reasons. Some of our adult patients experience an orthodontic relapse from not wearing their retainers into adulthood. Others never had the opportunity to have braces as children. No matter the reason, orthodontia later in life is very common. 

While children and young teenagers usually don’t mind wearing traditional braces, many adults are put off by the idea of metal brackets and wires.

ClearCorrect® vs. Invisalign®

We offer ClearCorrect invisible braces. You are probably familiar with this style of treatment: clear, removable plastic trays that fit over your teeth and straighten your smile. 

Many people have heard of Invisalign invisible braces but are less familiar with the USA-based clear aligner company called ClearCorrect. The similarities between Invisalign and ClearCorrect outweigh their differences, with ClearCorrect having two significant advantages:

  • ClearCorrect tends to cost less than Invisalign.
  • ClearCorrect aligners are made in the USA (Texas). 

Like Invisalign, ClearCorrect uses a series of BPA-free, removable, clear plastic aligner trays to nudge teeth into proper alignment. Because you take them out to eat and clean your teeth, caring for your smile during treatment is easy.

ClearCorrect invisible braces have many advantages over traditional orthodontics. ClearCorrect aligners are:

  • They're subtle and transparent, so you can wear them all day in professional settings. 
  • They are smooth and soft, which means they will not irritate your sensitive gum and cheek tissue. 
  • They're easy to remove, so you don’t have to work around tricky wires while you brush and floss your teeth. 
  • Wearers are free from dietary restrictions because you don’t have to worry about damaging your braces with hard or sticky foods.

If you’re an adult who worries about braces affecting your lifestyle or keeping you from eating foods you love, ClearCorrect might be the answer you’re looking for. These invisible braces provide all the benefits of classic orthodontics without adverse side effects such as irritated cheeks, affected speech, or possible tooth decay and discoloration.

Using an Orthodontic Retainer

Post-braces retainers are key to any successful orthodontic treatment plan. Your straighter smile is an investment in your health and in your appearance, which means you should do everything you can to protect your investment. Retainers are a crucial element of the overall orthodontic process, and we take wearing retainers very seriously! 

Your ClearCorrect treatment plan will always include wearing a retainer. Your orthodontic retainer holds your teeth in their new, straighter position. Without a retainer, your teeth will drift, causing a condition called orthodontic relapse, and your investment of time and money will be for nothing. Your teeth can move back into their original position surprisingly quickly, which is why it’s so important to wear your retainer to hold your teeth in place. Wearing your retainer will be especially crucial for the first several months following your treatment.

During your follow-up dental appointments with Dr. Taub, you will learn how often you’re supposed to wear your retainer. Eventually, most patients only need to wear their retainer one or two nights each week to maintain their smiles. You worked hard to get your smile in a better place—and we want you to keep it straight and healthy for your entire life by regularly wearing your retainer!
