Invisible Aligners

The Esthetic Aligner is a practically invisible aesthetic dental aligner that acts to correct almost all types of crowding problems that need orthodontic correction.

It is a much more comfortable treatment alternative and desired by many patients for its aesthetics.

Made up of trays made of a transparent material, the Esthetic Aligner relies on 3D technology both to manufacture them and to determine the evolution of the treatment.
With the same efficiency as other methods, results are achieved in less time with clear aligners.

Advantages of the Esthetic Aligner

Aesthetic aligners have numerous advantages over conventional braces, in addition to the aesthetic appearance.

The main advantages of the Esthetic Aligner are:

  • Greater comfort;
  • They can be removed;
  • They facilitate hygiene;
  • They can be associated with other treatments, including orthodontic;
  • Suitable for all ages;
  • In children, treatment can be carried out while sleeping;
    Indication for almost all types of orthodontic problems.

The Esthetic Aligner system works on the basis of world-advanced technology, which facilitates the production of the aligners and the treatment as a whole.

How is the treatment with aesthetic aligners?

After evaluating the patient’s case, through auxiliary diagnostic means, a model of the patient’s dental arch or the intraoral scanner is made.

This 3D model, or the file resulting from the virtual scanner, is analyzed by software that, together with Dr. Tiago Ribeiro, will determine the movement and the entire evolution of the treatment.

After that, the acetate molds that are the aligners themselves are manufactured from machinery with German technology.

At each stage determined by the software and with the professional’s observation of each patient’s progress, aligners are delivered that will be changed successively until the treatment is completed.
The treatment time is also usually a question that arises in patients who are interested in using this method of aesthetic orthodontics.

The good news is that the duration is equal to or slightly shorter than traditional orthodontics.

Length of stay and duration of treatment

On average, treatments last between 12 and 18 months, varying according to the severity of the case. The more severe the case, the longer the treatment will take place. The minimum time spent with aesthetic aligners is 17 hours a day.
