Aligners In Dubai For Kids, Teens & Adults

About Clear Aligners

Clear Aligners such as Invisalign or Spark; use a series of clear, specially designed aligners to straighten your teeth. Unlike braces, the aligners can be removed to eat, brush, and floss. Aligners are particularly effective in correcting minor orthodontic irregularities and orthodontic relapse from not wearing retainers. For effective tooth movement, the aligners must be worn 20-22 hours each day. We only use the best of aligners that are made in USA, Germany, etc.

How Do I Get Started With Aligners?

At your initial consultation, Dr. Abdulqadir will discuss the option of Invisalign based on your unique orthodontic needs and treatment goals. If you are a candidate for aligners we will start the process by performing a 3D intraoral scan of your teeth. Dr. AQR will then align your bite digitally using computerized software. Once Dr. AQR has determined your ideal tooth position, the treatment plan will be discussed with you. Following which, a series of aligners are created using CAD-CAM technology at the clear aligner lab. At your following appointment, we will bond any attachments if needed, and you will begin wearing your aligners. As you change to a new set of aligners about every week, your teeth will move gradually until they reach their final positions. You can expect to visit our office about once every four to six weeks to ensure that your treatment is progressing as planned.

Aligners For Kids

Is My Child A Candidate For Clear Aligners?
To determine if your child is a candidate for Invisalign in Dubai, UAE, we highly recommend scheduling a free consultation with our skilled orthodontist – Dr. Abdulqadir. During this consultation, he will review your child’s dental health and history, as well as their x-rays and oral hygiene habits. It’s important to consider your child’s hygiene habits because clear aligners require a great deal of personal responsibility since they are removable. Your child is responsible for ensuring they wear the aligners for at least 22 hours a day, keep them clean, and maintain proper oral health (brushing, flossing, etc.).

In general, there are some signs you can check for to see if your child would be a potential candidate; these include the following:

  1. Their permanent teeth have begun to come in.
  2. They have mild to moderate alignment issues (overbite, underbite, overcrowding, etc.).
  3. They are compliant with oral hygiene habits.
  4. They have lost most of their baby teeth.

If it is determined that clear aligner therapy is the right orthodontic treatment for your child, our team will create a personalized treatment plan to ensure the best possible results. Contact us today to schedule a free consultation for your child.

About Invisalign First
Clear aligner treatment uses 3D technology to identify the exact movements of your teeth and then create a series of aligners specific to your teeth. As you progress through treatment, you will change out the aligners for the next set in the treatment plan; each set of aligners will move your teeth closer to the desired result. Aligners First treatment, also referred to as Phase 1 treatment, uses orthodontic appliances for proper jaw development and assists adult teeth that are growing in. Phase 1 is part of a two-phase treatment plan used on children and young adults who may benefit from a more complex orthodontic treatment plan for proper jaw and tooth alignment.

Aligners For Teens

Clear Aligners are the perfect orthodontic solution for teens who want to straighten their teeth with a more subtle orthodontic appliance. Clear aligner treatment makes it easy to get a beautiful smile with little disruption to your daily life. Since the treatment is removable, teens can still enjoy their favorite foods, brush, and floss as usual, and remove the appliance for important events like prom and picture day. We understand that teens nowadays have a social life of their own, and making their treatment comfortable without compromising on that lifestyle is our priority. The aligners are to be worn for 22 hours a day and taken out for eating and brushing your teeth.

With clear aligners, there are fewer appointments because they do not need to be adjusted; instead, you will be sent a few sets at a time and switch out the aligners every few weeks with the next one in the set, progressing closer to your ideal smile. Treatment with clear aligners for teens can take as little as six months for minor misalignments but usually are worn for 12 to 18 months. If you are interested in finding out if your teen is a candidate for clear aligners in Dubai, UAE, contact us to schedule a free consultation with Dr. AQR!

What Makes Aligners for Teens Different?
A unique feature of Aligners for Teens is its eruption tabs. These are little flaps of plastic that allow room for the adult teeth to grow in behind the aligner. If your teen has recently gotten an adult tooth, the dentist can add a tab to the back of the aligners and give extra space for adult teeth to grow properly (this is most common with molars and canine teeth).

Aligners for teens also usually includes backup aligners if the original pair is lost or damaged. This is useful for busy teens who may need an extra aligner or two to get through their treatment.

These features are designed to make it easier for teens to comply with and maintain their treatment plans. With features like these unique to clear aligners, it is a great option for teens looking to straighten their smiles. Contact Cosmocare Medical Center today to find out if your teen is a candidate for Clear Aligners for teens in Dubai, UAE.

Pros & Cons Of Clear Aligner Treatment

Pros

  1. Discreet — The biggest advantage of clear aligners is that they are virtually invisible when worn. This means you don’t have to worry about the unsightly appearance of metal braces in your mouth.
  2. Fewer Lifestyle Restrictions — They also come with fewer restrictions than metal braces; you can remove them whenever you want for eating or brushing/flossing, which makes them easier to maintain and clean than traditional braces.
  3. Fewer Office Visits — They can be removed when needed and require fewer office visits for adjustments compared to traditional braces.
  4. Comfortable — They are more efficient and accurate since they are created with a 3D printer. This makes them fit more comfortably over your teeth and gums.

Cons

  1. Self-Discipline — A potential downside of using clear aligners is that they require more discipline from the wearer than traditional braces; if the aligners aren’t worn for at least 20 hours each day, the treatment won’t be as effective as it would be with regular use.
  2. May Not Be Effective For Severe Misalignments — They may not be suitable for patients with severe misalignment issues since they may not provide enough pressure to move teeth into place as quickly or effectively as traditional braces would in those cases.

Regardless of the complexity of the case or your personal preferences, our team will make sure to explain all the details to you and go over any nuances of treatment before proceeding. Dr. Abdulqadir believes in providing result-oriented solutions to all his patients irrespective of their choice of appliance, because everybody deserves to smile their best.

Clear Aligners FAQ

How long does clear aligner treatment take?
The duration of your clear aligner treatment is determined by the severity of your misalignment and the treatment goals of your specific case. Generally, patients can expect to complete their aligner course in about 12 months. For patients with minor orthodontic issues and misalignments, six months of treatment may be necessary; other cases may require up to 18 months or more. It’s important to wear your aligners for the recommended 20-22 hours per day because non-compliance can lead to longer treatment times.
Your clear aligners are made with a 3D printer and incredibly accurate 3D digital scans, making them snug and unique to your mouth. This prevents any long-term effects on your speech. That being said, for the first few days, most patients may notice a difference in their speech while their mouth gets used to the aligners. This is completely normal; as with any orthodontic device, there is an adjustment period. If, however, this has not been resolved after a few days and you still are having difficulties speaking or have a lisp, contact our office, and we will be able to assist you.
The best way to keep your clear aligners clean is by brushing them with a toothbrush and mild cleaning solution, rinsing them off with cold water, and air drying them. It is best to clean your aligners at least once or twice daily to prevent germs and bacteria from sitting on your teeth. You should also ensure never to eat or drink (except water) with your aligners in; this will keep them clean and free of food residue. Additionally, brushing your teeth after each meal and before putting your aligners back in is important. This helps ensure that no food particles will get trapped underneath your aligners.
Because clear aligners are removable, you can eat and drink whatever you want while undergoing treatment. Just remember to brush and floss after every meal before placing your aligners back in.
When your clear aligner treatment is complete, you may be required to wear a retainer to maintain your treatment results. When this time comes, Dr. Abdulqadir will advise you on the best course of action for ensuring that your teeth stay in their new position. Typically, retainers must be worn at night while sleeping, with occasional daytime adjustments as needed. It’s important to follow the instructions for wearing your retainer in order to maintain your results. We recommend the ‘night time for a lifetime’ policy for retainer wear following comprehensive clear aligner treatment.
