The clear alternative to braces
Clear Aligners, also referred to as invisible aligners, are a type of orthodontic treatment that is designed to straighten misaligned or crooked teeth. These custom-made mouthpieces, made of transparent plastic, are virtually invisible and can be easily removed. This makes them a convenient option compared to traditional braces.
In contrast to traditional braces, which have wires and brackets, Clear Aligners don’t have these. This means that they can be taken out for eating, brushing, flossing, or for special events. Furthermore, because of their nearly invisible appearance, Clear Aligners are a great choice for those who want to keep a natural look during orthodontic treatment.
When it comes to advantages, Clear Aligners have several over traditional braces. Firstly, they are more flexible and convenient, allowing you to eat whatever you like without any restrictions. Secondly, they are easy to clean and maintain. Hence, if you are seeking an orthodontic solution that is discreet, convenient, and offers the freedom to eat your preferred foods, then Clear Aligners may be the perfect choice for you.

FAQ
Most frequent questions and answers
What is the cost of clear aligners in Dubai?
The cost of clear aligners depends on various factors, such as the type of aligner, your oral health needs, the amount of work required by the dentist, and the length of treatment. These factors can all impact the overall cost of your orthodontic work.
At Micris Dental Clinic, we understand that cost is an important consideration for many patients. That’s why we make sure to offer treatments that fit within your budget, without compromising on quality. Our team will work with you to find a solution that fits your needs and budget.
What should I expect during the treatment?
Clear aligners, like traditional braces, are designed to move teeth gradually over time. The process starts with a consultation with an orthodontist. During the consultation, the orthodontist will examine your teeth, discuss your goals and needs, and determine if clear aligners are the right solution for you.
Next, the orthodontist will gather diagnostic information through x-rays, photographs, impressions, or digital scans of your teeth. This information will be used to create a tailored treatment plan specifically for your needs.
Once your custom-made clear aligners are ready, you’ll need to wear them for 20 to 22 hours each day. The aligner trays will be replaced every one to two weeks to help shift your teeth into place. Regular follow-up appointments and adjustments may be necessary during the treatment process to ensure you achieve your desired results. With clear aligners, you’ll be well on your way to a new and improved smile.
How do I clean the aligners?
Steps to Clean Clear Aligners:
- Brush aligners with gentle soap or gel and a soft-bristled toothbrush.
