In the world of dental care, advancements are continuously being made to improve patient
comfort, effectiveness of treatment, and affordability. One of the latest innovations gaining
traction in the field of orthodontics is the development of Smart Aligners. These clear, custom-
made dental aligners are revolutionizing the way people achieve perfect smiles. What’s more
exciting is that these cutting-edge aligners are proudly made in the Philippines, offering a high-
quality, cost-effective solution for dental alignment.
What are Smart Aligners?
Smart Aligners are a modern alternative to traditional metal braces. They are made from a transparent, medical-grade plastic that is nearly invisible when worn. These aligners are designed to fit snugly over your teeth and are engineered to gradually shift them into the desired position. The process involves wearing a series of custom-made aligners, each slightly different from the last, to gently and efficiently move teeth into alignment.
Benefits of Smart Aligners
- Aesthetics: One of the most significant advantages of Smart Aligners is their invisibility. Unlike metal braces, they are virtually undetectable, making them an attractive option for both teens and adults who are conscious about their appearance.
- Comfort: Made from smooth plastic, Smart Aligners are far more comfortable than traditional braces. There are no metal brackets or wires to irritate the inside of your mouth.
- Convenience: Smart Aligners are removable, which means you can take them out to eat, drink, brush, and floss. This aspect makes maintaining oral hygiene easier compared to fixed braces.
- Effectiveness: Despite their discreet appearance, Smart Aligners are highly effective. They can address a wide range of dental issues, from minor tooth movement to more complex alignment problems. Moreover, they may align teeth faster than metal braces.
- Affordability: Produced locally in the Philippines, Smart Aligners offer a more affordable option compared to imported brands, without compromising on quality.
The Smart Aligners Experience
Upon starting your Smart Aligners treatment, you’ll receive a box containing all the essentials to begin your journey to a straighter smile. Inside the box, you’ll find:
- Remover Tool: A handy tool to assist you in removing your aligners comfortably and safely.
- Case: A case designed to hold one set of upper and lower trays, ensuring they stay safe and clean when not in use.
- Aligner Trays: All the trays that you’ll be wearing throughout your treatment. Each tray is labeled for easy identification and contains slight adjustments to continue the gradual movement of your teeth.
Treatment Process
- Consultation and 3D Scanning: Your journey to a perfect smile begins with a comprehensive consultation at JP Romero Dental Group. During this visit, our dental professionals will assess your dental needs and determine if Smart Aligners are the right option for you. If they are, then you will be subjected to a 3D Scanning procedure to
digitalize you mouth. - Custom Treatment Plan: Using advanced 3D imaging technology, we will create a detailed treatment plan that outlines the movement of your teeth at each stage. This plan will also provide a visual representation of your expected results.
- Aligner Fabrication: Based on your treatment plan, a series of custom aligners will be fabricated to fit your teeth precisely. Each set of aligners is designed to be worn for about two weeks before moving on to the next set.
- Regular Check-Ups: Throughout your treatment, you will have regular check-ups with our dental team to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments.
- Shifting Trays Weekly: You will need to shift from one tray to another every week as instructed. The tray can be softened for easy fitting by dipping it in hot or warm water.
- Achieving Your Perfect Smile: Once your treatment is complete, you will be provided with retainers to help maintain your new smile.
