Orthodontic treatment with aligners consists of using a series of clear plastic braces that fit tightly to the teeth, with which we can move them in a controlled manner to the desired position.

To make these devices we use our Itero scanner to obtain virtual models of the patient. With the help of artificial intelligence we create a virtual treatment plan, which is specific for each patient. From this virtual plan, 3D printing technology is used to make the plastics that we place on the patients.

In our office we use the recognized brand Invisalign, pioneer in this technology, with which we manage to treat all types of bite problems or malocclusions. In addition, we use the national brand of aligners Zero Brackets which we usually recommend in simpler cases, as it offers the same efficiency and quality of results of international brands.

One of the main benefits of invisible aligners is that the patient can remove them easily and simply. However, they can only be removed for two or three hours a day. The great advantage of this is that the patient's lifestyle is not affected since he/she can eat what he/she wants and dental hygiene is much simpler than with traditional orthodontics.

Advantages of aligners

• Many dental problems can be solved with invisible aligners, however, it is important to consider that this will depend on the orthodontist being an expert in the technique.
• For some patients, discretion is an essential requirement to achieve the smile they want, so they use aligners as a treatment option because they are the most esthetic and discreet option currently available on the market.
• As they are removable, with aligners there is no limitation in terms of food and hygiene, making them the ideal option for patients who have gum problems.
• El paciente no experimenta molestias al utilizarlo como si ocurre en los primeros días con la ortodoncia tradicional.
• Treatments with aligners are typically completed 30%-50% faster than with traditional orthodontics.
