The thought of wearing braces fills a lot of people with dread. Luckily, your trusted dentist in Clemson, SC offers the best in dental correction technology.
Request An AppointmentPatients have been effortlessly improving their smiles with Invisalign® clear aligners for over 20 years. The discreet, comfortable aligners straighten your teeth and align your bite without interfering with your day-to-day life. The highly trained team at Carolina Oaks Dental Care is proud to be a Clemson, SC Invisalign provider. We love seeing the joy our patients feel as their new smiles take shape.
Regular braces can take up to 18 months to work. They can be uncomfortable and make you feel self-conscious and require a lot of special care. For people with crooked teeth or alignment issues, braces were often the only option available.
Now your trusted dentist in Clemson, SC brings you a much easier way to correct your teeth and improve your smile. Invisalign clear braces use clear plastic trays that are specially designed to fit your teeth perfectly.
The gentle and experienced team at Carolina Oaks Dental Care will take x-rays and pictures of your teeth. They will also make a molding of your teeth. These will be used to create a set of individualized trays that will be used to correct your teeth.
Once your trays have been crafted, you will begin wearing a tray to carefully adjust your teeth. Each tray will be slightly different than the last so it can gently correct the alignment of your teeth. The small adjustments in each tray result in a smooth and quick transition for your teeth. You will wear each tray for around two weeks, or slightly longer, depending on the degree of correction needed.
During the process, our gentle and knowledgeable team will check the progress of your teeth. They will use past pictures of your teeth to track movement as well as taking new pictures of your teeth for future reference. If you have any concerns, questions, or need adjustments, our kind and skilled dentists will work with you to make the entire process as gentle and effective as possible.
One of the best things about Invisalign clear braces is the beautiful results they offer without the discomfort or extra rules of traditional braces. These clear braces allow you to enjoy your life to its fullest, without worrying about damaging your teeth or needing replacements. Here are just a few ways Invisalign brings you more freedom and comfort:
Unlike traditional braces, you can eat what you want to eat anytime you want to. When you eat, simply remove the tray and place it in the protective case provided for you by our friendly staff. You can drink many different types of liquids with the tray in your mouth. Just be sure to avoid hot drinks while you have the tray in because they might warp the tray, making them unusable.
You don’t have to refrain from any activities while you are using Invisalign like you do with metal braces. Simply remove the plastic tray during physical activities and sports.
Many patients feel uncomfortable smiling and talking with traditional braces. Invisalign clear braces are practically invisible so you can feel confident while you wear them. As your teeth improve, you’ll even notice yourself smiling more and feeling more confident.
Traditional metal braces can take up to 18 months to bring lasting results. Depending on the degree of correction needed, your alignment should be corrected in only six months to a year.
