You know that traditional metal braces aren’t the teeth-straightening method for you. You know this because you’ve had them before! For one reason or another, your previously perfect teeth have slid back out of alignment and are compromising your smile once again. Is there a way to solve dental crookedness without uncomfortable wires and brackets?
Fortunately, yes there is! Keep reading to learn why so many patients prefer CandidPro for their orthodontic treatments.
Why Did My Teeth Shift in The First Place?
First thing’s first – let’s provide you with some closure about why your teeth might have shifted out of alignment in the first place. It’s possible that:
- You didn’t wear your retainer as instructed. Retainers can be somewhat of a bother when you’re feeling tired, but they’re designed to “retain” your teeth’s new positions. Failing to wear them could definitely result in shifting teeth!
- You’ve developed some new teeth. Whether you ended up keeping them or getting them extracted, wisdom teeth can push your other pearly whites out of place as they grow.
- You have compulsive oral habits. Chronic teeth grinding, nail biting, ice crunching, and other such habits exert excess pressure on your teeth, which can push them into crooked positions.
If you suspect any of these causes could be the culprit, be sure to note this to your dentist so they can help you avoid further realignment in the future.
Will CandidPro Realign My Teeth?
Absolutely! The fact that you’ve had orthodontic treatment in the past doesn’t change CandidPro’s ability to straighten your smile. Your dentist will provide you with a set of personalized, clear plastic trays that you’ll wear for 22 hours per day. They’ll apply gradually increasing pressure to your teeth, encouraging them to move in much the same way that traditional braces do – just without the wires and brackets.
How Will I Benefit from a CandidPro Treatment?
Because of their sleek, removable design, CandidPro has several quality-of-life advantages over metal braces, such as:
- Shorter average treatment times
- Fewer in-office visits
- A discrete, invisible look
- An expanded menu of safe foods
- Easier maintenance
- Enhanced comfort
Overall, patients tend to find CandidPro orthodontics to be more convenient and professional-friendly. Your peers likely won’t even know you’re straightening your teeth again unless you tell them!
Remember to Talk to Your Dentist
CandidPro is an excellent treatment option, but it’s not for everyone. Those with more severe alignment issues, for example, might need the strength of metal braces. Be sure to schedule a consultation with your dentist so they can help you find the right orthodontic solution for you and your smile!
