Orthodontic Treatment with Transparent Plates
Generally, tooth crookedness is caused by wires, rubbers and springs attached to metal buttons called brackets, which are glued on the teeth.
Orthodontic treatment with transparent aligners is a treatment method developed to be applied in appropriate cases - mild and moderate dental disorders. In this treatment method, the treatment stages of the teeth are planned on the digital platform and the teeth are moved towards their ideal posture positions.
Depending on the case, a certain number of transparent plates are prepared digitally. Each plate prepared is used by the patient for the period determined by the doctor. For example, if 5 plates are prepared for the patient (the number of plates may increase depending on the severity of the case), each plate is used for the period determined by the doctor and a gradual improvement is achieved in certain amounts in each plate.
In this method, it is possible to move the teeth effectively, accurately and quickly towards the desired ideal position by applying light pressure through almost inconspicuous transparent appliances.
