Question and answer

Invisible braces dubai

Invisible braces usually mean clear aligners that gradually move selected teeth after a clinical bite assessment.

The short answer

Clear aligners are removable appliances fabricated from a digital tooth setup. Each tray applies controlled pressure to create small movements, while attachments or elastics may add grip or guide difficult movements. Wear each tray exactly as instructed, remove it for eating unless told otherwise, and clean both teeth and trays. A clinician should assess the bite, gum health, roots, bone support, and retained teeth before treatment.

How should you wear and clean clear aligner trays?

Wear each tray exactly as instructed, remove it for eating unless told otherwise, and clean both teeth and trays. A clinician should assess the bite, gum health, roots, bone support, and retained teeth before treatment.

When can an aligner problem require dental care?

Seek care if an aligner causes a sharp wound, severe persistent pain, swelling, or a tooth becomes unusually mobile. Missed review visits can allow tracking problems to continue unnoticed.

What can aligners change and what can they not do?

Ask which movements are predictable with aligners, whether attachments or elastics are needed, and how retainers will maintain the final position.

Which movements may need attachments or elastics?

Clear aligners cannot whiten crowns or move teeth without considering roots and the supporting bone.

Frequently asked questions
