If you\u2019re wondering about how long ClearCorrect treatment will take to straighten your teeth and how often you\u2019ll need to wear your aligners, then you\u2019ve come to the right place. Read on to find out more about this advanced orthodontic treatment\u2019s timeline and whether it\u2019s a good fit for your lifestyle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Long Does the Overall Treatment Take?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Traditional braces are typically worn for an average of one to two years, but with the emergence of advanced orthodontic treatments like ClearCorrect, that treatment time has been slashed to anywhere from eight to 14 months. However, it\u2019s important to keep in mind that your unique timeline will be based on factors such as how severe your misalignment is and how many sets of clear braces you require in order to fix your orthodontic issues. You can find all of that out in your initial consultation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each set of aligners that you\u2019ll receive will be\ncustom-fitted to your dental structure in order to shift all of your teeth at\nthe same time, unlike braces. This will provide fast and effective results while\npreserving the health of your grin. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Long Will You Need to Wear The Aligners For Daily?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To get the best results, it\u2019s recommended to wear your aligners\nfor at least 22 hours a day. That means that the only times you\u2019ll be taking\nthem out of your mouth is to eat, brush, and floss. When you do take them out,\nit\u2019s important to store them in their hard-protective case to prevent them from\naccidentally becoming lost or collecting germs or bacteria. After you\u2019re done\neating, be sure to rinse them off and brush your teeth before you put them back\nin your mouth. This will prevent food debris from becoming trapped between your\ntrays and your teeth, increasing your risk of developing a cavity, which could push\nback your treatment timeline. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Frequently Will You Need to Visit Your Dentist During Treatment?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>After you visit your dentist for an initial consultation and\ndecide that ClearCorrect treatment is right for you, they\u2019ll develop your\ncustomized treatment timeline and let you know how frequently you\u2019ll need to switch\nyour sets of aligners and visit their office for a progress check and to pick\nup your new sets. Typically, patients wear each set of trays for about two\nweeks and visit their dentist for a progress check every six to eight weeks.\nOnce you get towards the end of your treatment, your dentist will discuss\nretainer options with you to help preserve your hard-earned results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best way to learn how long it will take you to undergo\nClearCorrect treatment is to visit your dentist so they can take a look at the\nseverity of your misalignment. It\u2019s important to keep in mind that all\northodontic treatments take time, but the end results are always well worth\nyour effort! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About the Author<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Jonathan Mason has nearly a decade of experience\nproviding high-quality, smile-improving dental treatments to patients across\nthe east coast.
