#1...Taking Your Own Impressions is Hard
MEET DR. ROUSE
Unlike the exact representation of your teeth from our 3D Digital Scan, Orthodontic Trays made from at-home impressions have a “fudge-factor” built in. This leads to inaccuracy from materials and mistakes from self-care.
D.I.Y. manufacturer either fabricate trays or have you retake the impressions a second time, leading to longer treatment times.

#2 With D.I.Y. Trays, Sometimes the First Aligner Set Fits, and the Rest Don’t
The remaining trays that are calculated at the same time are based on your initial attempt at impressing your own teeth. Extrapolating on the errors you made, 2-3 trays may work and then future trays may not. This leads to a disheartened feeling that it is clear orthodontic trays that don’t do the job, when in reality it is user-error.
Your roots stabilize your teeth in your jaw bone. Without consulting all the proper x-rays and p

What are Attachments?
Attachments are similar to handlebars on a bicycle: They help grab a hold of a tooth to more predictably rotate it into place.
IPR (interproximal reduction) is a great and common way to close spaces filing a small amount (like filing your nails but even less than 1mm typically) without removing teeth to create space or leaving “black triangles” (see video) at the end of treatment by aligning teeth that are naturally shaped without much of a flat surface to keep calculus and plaque from forming between them. This is an added benefit from DIY aligners that our office offers in order to make sure your case tracks well and ends up with great results!
LIFE AFTER ALIGNERS
Don't Forget To Wear Retainers Every Night
Did you know the average person goes through 7 sets of retainers in their life if they are constantly wearing them? That is why we introduced the Retainers-For-Life Program at Open Late Dentistry and Orthodontics.
While your aligners are worn for 10-14 days, retainers are close to the same material and will not hold up to a lifetime of night time use.

CLEAR ORTHODONTIC TRAYS F.A.Q.'s
How much does it cost?
Depends on the Insurance.
Will I Have to Change My Diet?
The simple answer is no. This is one of the best benefits of using clear aligners. Unlike conventional braces, you can take off the clear aligner tray whenever you feel like eating.
However, it is advisable to avoid foods that are dark-colored such as wine or coffee as they might stain them. Also, sticky foods that might get stuck between the tray and your teeth are not a good idea. Nonetheless, if you clean your teeth and aligners as directed, your diet should not change.
How Long Do They Take to Align Teeth?
The length of time clear aligners takes to straighten your teeth varies depending on the severity of your situation. However, most people end up using them for about half a year in mild cases. However, it might take about a year to 18 months for moderate to severe cases.
How Often Must I Wear My Clear Aligners?
One of the great things about clear aligners is that you can take them out when you need to. However, it is important to wear your aligners for at least 22 hours a day to ensure that they are effective. This means that you should only take them out for eating, drinking, and cleaning your teeth. You may also want to remove them for special occasions, such as a wedding or job interview. If you do not wear your aligners for the recommended amount of time, your treatment may be extended by several months.
