How Do CandidPro Clear Aligners Work?
All orthodontic treatments work by applying sustained pressure to the teeth in order to gradually shift them into their proper positions. Whereas traditional braces do so with brackets and wires, CandidPro takes a different approach. It uses custom-made clear plastic aligners. You wear each set of aligners for about two weeks, keeping them in your mouth for around 22 hours each day. As you work your way through your series of aligners, your teeth should gradually get closer to their ideal places. Periodically throughout your teeth-straightening journey, you should visit us so we can monitor your progress. The average total treatment time is around 12 months, though some cases require more or less time.
Who Can CandidPro Clear Aligners Help?
Do you want to straighten your teeth without the metal? If so, we have good news for you: CandidPro has proven to be an effective solution for patients with all kinds of orthodontic problems, including the ones listed below!
Crowded Teeth
Crowded teeth can trap food between them and increase your risk of cavities and gum disease. Not only that, but they can take a serious toll on your self-esteem. If you know this all too well as someone who is struggling with overcrowding, then you might be wondering, “Does CandidPro fix crowded teeth?” If so, you’ll be happy to hear that the answer is often “yes!” So, don’t just assume your only option is metal braces.
Gaps Between Teeth
Unfortunately, even relatively small gaps between your teeth can leave your gums vulnerable to irritation and harm. There is good news, though: CandidPro may be able to move your teeth closer together and eliminate those unwanted spaces. If we determine that you’re a good candidate during your consultation, then we will get to work creating your custom series of aligners. Before you know it, you’ll be on your way to a straighter, healthier, and even more beautiful smile.
Overbite
CandidPro is an effective means of treating various types of bite problems, including overbites! This is when the upper teeth jut out beyond the lower ones more than they should, leading to several issues, including trouble chewing properly. Fortunately, CandidPro may be able to shift your teeth in a way that enhances your self-esteem, your oral health, and your chewing patterns!
Underbite
Another common bite problem is an underbite, which is when the lower teeth protrude beyond the upper ones. In addition to being a source of insecurity, it can make chewing properly difficult and lead to chronic jaw pain. That’s why we recommend scheduling an appointment with us, even if your case is relatively minor. The sooner you do, the sooner we can determine if you’re a good candidate for CandidPro.
Crossbite
Crossbites, like the other bite problems listed here, can lead to chronic jaw pain, trouble chewing properly, and premature wear on your teeth. The good news is that patients with mild to moderate cases are often candidates for CandidPro. If we determine that you are a candidate during your consultation, then we can straighten your teeth and align your bite with clear, barely noticeable trays.
Open Bite
Is there a space between your upper and lower teeth when you bite down? If so, you likely have an open bite. It’s also likely that you can get the results you desire with CandidPro. If that’s the case for you, your orthodontic treatment won’t draw any unwanted attention to your smile.
The Benefits of CandidPro Clear Aligners
Some of the top benefits of this innovative clear aligner treatment include:
- Short treatment timelines: You can usually achieve your desired results in about 12 to 18 months, which tends to be faster than traditional braces.
- No dietary restrictions: You can remove your aligners when you eat, so you do not have to avoid any of your favorite foods during treatment.
- Hassle-free oral hygiene: Cleaning your teeth is easy because you simply take out your aligners to brush and floss as you normally would.
- Fewer check-in visits: You will spend less time at the dentist since CandidPro typically requires fewer appointments than braces.
- Designed for comfort: The smooth, custom-fit aligners are made to minimize irritation to your mouth and gums.
- Nearly invisible appearance: The clear aligners are discreet, so most people will not notice that you are straightening your teeth.
How Much Does CandidPro Cost?
The cost of CandidPro depends on a few different factors. Generally speaking, the price is in the same ballpark as that of traditional braces. During your consultation, we will learn about the details of your case before we provide a personalized cost estimate. We will also make sure you know about your payment options. For example, we welcome insurance, and we accept financing through CareCredit. We even have a convenient in-house savings plan.
