Are you exploring clear aligner treatment? Learn more about OrthoFX™ Clear Aligners offered at Oak Ridge Dental in San Ramon, California!
Oak Ridge Dental is partnering with OrthoFXTM to offer you invisible, painless, hassle-free teeth straightening treatment.
If you decide to move ahead with treatment, you'll start receiving clear, custom-made orthodontic aligners from OrthoFXTM – shipped to your Orthodontist's office. Each week you'll put in a new set of aligners designed to gradually move your teeth into place. Unlike traditional braces, OrthoFXTM Clear Aligners are nearly invisible and can be removed at will so you can eat, drink, and brush your teeth with comfort.
As your treatment advances, you'll be able to use intelligent monitoring software provided by OrthoFXTM to track your progress remotely. That means fewer trips to the orthodontist's office. Each week, you get the satisfaction of watching your smile improve. Your optimal tooth spacing will enhance chewing function and help you brush and floss more easily so you'll have healthier teeth and gums for the long-term.
How do OrthoFX™ Clear Aligners Work?
OrthoFX™ clear aligners are a convenient alternative to traditional braces. They're removable, almost transparent, and made using a special 3-layer proprietary polymer that's more efficient and more comfortable than metal.
Using 3D scanning technology, the doctors at Oak Ridge Dental will create a personalized aligner system that gently moves your teeth into position stage-by-stage. Made from a next-generation polymer, TXTetraTM, the clear aligner fits over your teeth like a glove, applying gently pressure on each tooth to gradually straighten them over time. The aligners are shipped to your doctor's office and you'll switch out your old aligner with a new one each week.
Every treatment plan also includes a retainer to help make sure your teeth stay in place after you've completed your treatment. The retainers are made from a special TXTetra Bright polymer that gives your teeth a natural white color without the use of harsh chemicals.
OrthoFX™ teeth aligners are:
- Comfortable – Made with 3 layers, each aligner has a central elastomeric layer for added comfort.
- Stain Resistant – The strong external polyester layer resists stains.
- Invisible – The aligner's ISO refractive surface makes them very hard to spot.
What Conditions Benefit from
Orthodontic Aligner Treatment?
Overbite
Most people have a slight overbite. But when your front upper teeth significantly cover your lower
teeth, you're at higher risk for injury, pain while chewing, and speech problems.
Underbite
An underbite can cause problems with chewing and digestion and increased wear and tear on your front teeth.
Crossbite
A crossbite isn't just a cosmetic issue. Misaligned teeth can cause pain and increase the likelihood of
tooth decay.
Gap Teeth
Gap teeth can cause pockets to form between the teeth and gums where food gets stuck. This causes
sore and tender gums and even leads to gum disease.
Open Bite
An open bite can cause problems chewing, increased wear and tear on back teeth, and speech problems.
Crowded Teeth
Crowded teeth are difficult to brush and floss. Plaque accumulation in inaccessible areas can cause
tooth decay, bleeding gums, or bone loss.
