Nowadays it is incredible how much dentistry has advanced and above all in making everything easier in orthodontics, more comfortable, aesthetic, faster and more beautiful for patients, and that is how orthodontics without braces emerged.

What Is Orthodontics Without Braces?

Bracket-free orthodontics is an innovative treatment that is based on aligners that are the ones that replace the brackets to perform dental movements, thus avoiding all discomfort and without damaging the dental aesthetics by the wires. The aligners physically look like transparent retainers, with the big difference that the retainers do not perform any type of movement while the aligners fully perform all the necessary movements to achieve the position and the desired bite.

Step By Step Of Orthodontics Without Braces

The first thing that is done is that the orthodontist reviews and evaluates you in order to know if you are a candidate for orthodontics without braces or if your treatment requires any of the other orthodontic systems with braces.

Afterwards, the dental exams that are required for the initial treatment are performed, which consist of a high-tech 3D intraoral scanner that will faithfully copy every part of your mouth. This 3D scan is complemented with intraoral and extraoral photos as well as panoramic radiography that is essential for any dental treatment and especially for orthodontic treatments.

After having the intraoral studies ready, they are sent to the company that makes the aligners and makes a complete study that includes a projection of how your smile will look at each stage of orthodontics without braces and, above all, how the result will be final. When doing this projection, the amount of total aligners that you require is also determined since they can make simple cases that only require from 5 aligners as complex cases that may require up to 30 aligners and this quantity also determines the final cost of your orthodontics without braces.

At this point, the orthodontist talks with the patient and he makes the decision whether he continues with the transparent aligners or if he wishes to start his treatment with another type of orthodontics. In the event that you continue with the aligners, the value that I paid for the study of the company that performs the aligners will be credited to your current treatment.

The company orders the aligners to be made with state-of-the-art 3d printers with the positions that were defined by the previous study.

The aligners are ready from start to finish from the day you start your orthodontics until the day they are fully aligned. You decide if the orthodontist changes your aligner at each appointment, or if, for example, you go on a trip and / or you are a busy person and cannot be going to check-ups on a recurring basis, we can deliver the complete set of aligners the same day which is marked of which one you have so that you do not get confused from one aligner to another at Moonee Ponds.

The last step is your teeth beautiful, even and aligned without any of the disadvantages of braces.
