You keep telling yourself that you’re going to get to that one thing in life that you’ve been putting off. Maybe for you it’s getting your teeth straightened. For a lot of people, that’s just one of those things that never seems to get done. Maybe the timing has never felt right, the options just didn’t fit with your lifestyle, or you had no clue where to even start. Whichever reason it is, you need to know that as soon as you’re ready to take that step we’ll be here to help you out, starting with the initial chat to figure everything out. Retainers help maintain your newly aligned smile by keeping teeth in their proper position long after treatment is complete.

In Colorado Springs we’ve seen so many people get a straighter smile without their teeth treatment getting in the way of daily life. The way this works is by using a series of plastic trays that are custom made to fit your teeth perfectly and they gently push them into better alignment over time. You wear each set of trays for a few weeks, then you move on to the next one in the set. It’s a process that used to take years with old-fashioned metal braces, but now you can get those same results with a lot more convenience. Aligners offer a comfortable, removable, and nearly invisible way to straighten teeth without disrupting your daily routine.

Most people who choose clear aligners do so because they’re great at what they do and they’re pretty discreet. The trays are made of a super thin, clear material that fits snug on your teeth so the people around you probably won’t even notice. A lot of times, being able to get orthodontic treatment without drawing attention is what makes people feel like they can finally commit to doing it.

At Inner Smiles Orthodontics, we really believe in getting a full and honest picture before trying to decide on a treatment plan. Before we even recommend clear aligners, we take a good hard look at the alignment of your teeth, your bite and any other factors that might come into play. Clear aligners are a good choice for a lot of people, but there are some cases where a different solution might actually be better for you. We’re always going to tell it to you straight and never just go with what’s popular.

Before treatment even starts, we sit down with each patient and go over what a typical day will look like with clear aligners. The most important thing is to wear the trays for 20 to 22 hours a day. If you can stick to that from the get-go, you’ll likely end up finishing the treatment on time and get the results you’re hoping for. Most people find that taking the trays out to eat and brushing your teeth before popping them back in becomes second nature pretty quickly.

To be honest, we really love talking to patients about clear aligners in Colorado Springs. We find that most people are pretty surprised at how easy it really is, and it’s a big eye opener to see the realisation sink in during a consultation. It’s one of our favourite moments every week.

At Inner Smiles Orthodontics in Colorado Springs, every patient is treated to a team that listens, explains things in a way that makes sense, and helps them along every step of the way to getting that better smile.
