What is the Clear Correct System?

ClearCorrect is an affordable clear aligner system used to straighten teeth as an alternative to traditional braces. Similar to other clear aligner brands (like Invisalign) available to certified dentist or orthodontist certified to offer them to their patients. Clear Correct straightens teeth using a series of clear, custom – made, removable aligners that gradually move teeth a little bit at a time, correcting the teeth and smile.

How it works?

We’ll make a series of aligners customized to apply pressure to the teeth that you want to move.

Your progress will be checked periodically and you will be given a new set of aligners.

ClearCorrect aligners should be worn for at least 22 hours per day, except when eating and drinking and brushing and flossing. Designed with Aesthetics in mind the aligners are barely noticeable and will not impact your daily activities.

We offer a gap free and obligation free consultation for case analysis, and a at presentation of the case cost and length of treatment will be discussed in detail.

This varies from patient to patient, depending on the complexity and severity of the case. Treatment can take anywhere from a few months to a few years. However, this will be discussed with you prior starting treatment.

Clear aligners are completely transparent, which makes them much more discreet than metal braces. People usually don’t notice them. They’re not invisible magic, which means—you can see them at close range if you know what to look for.

Does ClearCorrect guarantee perfect results?

Most patients do experience significant improvement in their smiles, but it’s impossible to guarantee the outcome of any orthodontic treatment. Your results may vary, depending on the severity of the case.

Will, I need to wear a retainer after treatment?

To prevent relapse, we usually prescribe a retainer after any orthodontic treatment. ClearCorrect offers affordable, discreet clear retainers suitable for patients treated with clear aligners or traditional metal braces. We strongly recommend wearing your retainers every night for as, long as you want straight teeth.

ClearCorrect The Braces Alternative FAQ’s

Clear Correct are clear plastic aligners that patients wear in a series to achieve their desired result.

Each new aligner is designed to move teeth slightly over the course of several months to a couple of years, depending on the level of crookedness or crowding.

Patients will first get an impression of their teeth, and a mold will be made from that impression. Aligners are designed to fit over or “snap on” to the teeth, much like a custom mouthguard might (except much lighter and thinner!).

ClearCorrect aligners are made from a polyurethane resin that leads its class in stress retention, impact and crack resistance, overall clarity and stain resistance.

In other words, when cared for properly, ClearCorrect aligners are nearly invisible for the length of treatment.

Every patient will have a different treatment time, as everyone’s mouth is different, as well as everyone’s goals being different.

Some minor crowding cases can be finished in 4-8 months, while other patients may need to wear their aligners for up to two years.

This treatment time is consistent with fixed braces (and sometimes faster) and patients always get the best results when they adhere to their treatment plan properly.

For the best results and to finish treatment within the estimated treatment time, patients should wear their aligners at least 22 hours a day. The only times they should be taken out is to play sport, eat and brush and floss your teeth.

Patients typically get a new set of aligners every 2-4 weeks, depending on their treatment schedule.

Whenever there is something new is in the mouth such as braces, a new mouth guard, retainers like ClearCorrect, a dull ache or tenderness during the first day or two wearing a new aligner is not uncommon.

This minor discomfort is normal and shouldn’t last too long, usually a few days until you get used to the new position your teeth are moving in to.

Patients can take an over-the-counter pain reliever and eat softer foods during this time.

ClearCorrect aligners are easy to clean, and it is important to do this every day. We advise patients that when you brush your teeth, take a few seconds to also scrub your aligners with cool water, a little non-abrasive toothpaste and your toothbrush.

This step will help keep your aligners fresh and clear.

Never soak your aligners in hot or warm water as this can warp the plastic and make them fit incorrectly. Which would have an impact on the end result.

If your insurance has an orthodontic benefit, you may be eligible for coverage. If you are in doubt just give us or your private health provider a call to ask.
