Frequently Asked Questions about Clear Aligners

Clear aligners are custom-made, removable trays that gradually straighten your teeth. They are an alternative to traditional braces and are virtually invisible, making them a popular choice for adults and teens.
How long do I need to wear clear aligners?
The duration of clear aligner treatment varies based on individual needs but typically ranges from 12 to 18 months. Dr. Bacon will provide a customized treatment plan during your consultation.
Can I eat and drink with clear aligners on?
Clear aligners should be removed while eating and drinking anything other than water to prevent damage and staining. It's important to brush your teeth before putting the aligners back in.
Frequently Asked Questions about Dental Implants
What are dental implants?
Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to serve as artificial tooth roots. They provide a strong foundation for replacement teeth, such as crowns, bridges, or dentures.
What are the benefits of dental implants?
Dental implants offer several benefits, including improved appearance, enhanced comfort, better oral health, and the ability to eat and speak with confidence. They are a durable and long-lasting solution for missing teeth.
