Dr. Kevin Lacour and Dr. Charles Burch may recommend ClearCorrect orthodontic treatment to align your teeth and give you a more balanced and beautiful smile. This clear aligner treatment is a more discreet alternative to traditional braces, working to straighten your teeth comfortably and nearly invisibly.
ClearCorrect is a modern treatment option, using specially designed clear aligners to gently guide your teeth into their optimal positions. The aligners are custom-made using advanced imaging technology, with each set of aligners created to make specific tooth movements. As your treatment progresses and you switch to new sets of aligners, each set will make small adjustments to your teeth until your smile has reached its ideal alignment.
ClearCorrect can treat all the same issues as braces, including:
- Crooked teeth
- Crowded teeth
- Gapped and spaced teeth
- Bad bites
These aligners also offer many benefits, such as increased comfort due to the smooth, custom-made aligners as well as the ability to eat, brush and floss normally to maintain good oral hygiene during your treatment.
We do recommend that you clean your aligners regularly — they are made from clear plastic, and if not cleaned regularly they may cause your teeth to appear discolored or dirty. We also encourage you to wear your aligners for 20 to 22 hours a day as recommended by our dentists. This will help ensure that your treatment stays on-track and that you achieve the beautiful smile you are looking for.
