Clear aligners are a series of tight-fitting custom-made orthodontic systems or mouthpieces which are used to straighten teeth for appropriate positioning of teeth, thus making them aesthetically pleasing. Clear aligners offer the best substitute for traditional/conventional braces, as they are virtually invisible, removable and designed in such a way that it helps guide teeth into their proper position. Moreover, clear aligners takes less time as compared to conventional braces to complete the treatment procedure and are cost effective. Clear aligners also avoid side effects of dental treatment such as tooth decay, plaque buildup, injuries, mouth sores, and others, which are caused by regular metal braces. On average, a person needs around 25-40 sets of clear aligners for complete alignment.
