Aligners have lots of advantages
1. Aligners are very convenient and hassle-freeAligners are comparatively more convenient than braces for the doctor and the patient both. As Aligners are a set of upper and lower clear plastic trays, you just have to insert them according to the instructions given by your dentist. Aligners are smooth in finish which means there is a little or no chance of tissue laceration, which is a common problem faced by braces users. Aligners are very easy to insert, remove, clean and maintain whereas in braces it is difficult to keep them clean , if you follow the instructions cleaning wise and wearing time wise
2. Aligners Require less Doctor Visits
There will be no need to book extra appointments with your dentist. You just have to visit your dentist once in 2 months for review. If you follow the instructions given and adhere by them, your treatment will complete in the time predicted by your doctor. Whereas in braces a small issue in brackets or wire will require you to visit your dentist’s clinic.
3. Aligners Require Less Maintenance than Braces
As regards oral hygiene it is very important for us to maintain good oral hygiene. In braces, it is difficult to maintain oral hygiene as food gets stuck in brackets and needs more frequent cleaning and skills whereas in aligners you just have to wash them 3-4 times a day. Cleaning of aligners is easier than braces. Yet if you don’t follow the hygiene instructions it could be drastic as you will be trapping the Bacteria around the teeth Causing Decay
4. Aligners are More Comfortable than Braces
People look for comfort, if the treatment makes you feel comfortable it will go smoothly , with Braces you need to pay attention while eating, drinking, playing a sport etc. A small mistake may change the course of your treatment. You have to change your eating and drinking habits. On the other hand in aligners, you may take them off and eat and drink what you want , clean your teeth and slip them back on
