Transparent orthodontic devices
Transparent orthodontic devices, also known as clear braces or aligners, are a modern orthodontic solution for straightening teeth and improving the bite. They are an alternative to traditional metal braces and are particularly appreciated for their aesthetics and comfort.
What are transparent braces?
Transparent braces are an effective and aesthetically pleasing solution to straighten teeth. They are ideal for people looking for a discreet orthodontic solution that will not interfere with their daily life.
Who needs transparent orthodontic devices?
A consultation with a dentist or orthodontist will help you determine if transparent braces are right for you. Transparent orthodontic devices are not suitable for all orthodontic problems, and more complicated cases may require the use of traditional braces. The success of the treatment depends on the patient's discipline, as the aligners must be worn for at least 20-22 hours a day.
The transperent braces therapy process is designed to gradually and discreetly shift teeth into the ideal position. Modern technologies and regular monitoring of progress provide patients with a comfortable and aesthetically discreet orthodontic solution.

"Modern orthodontics has no age limits and is often closely related to other specialized branches of dental medicine - prosthetics, periodontology and implantology. Such interdisciplinary cooperation is very important and desirable, because it complements the basic dental treatment and ensures the achievement of maximum aesthetic and functional results."
