What is Orthodontics?
Many people have teeth which are crooked or crowded. Orthodontics is the straightening and realignment of teeth to correct these irregularities. This aims to enhance their appearance and create a sense of aesthetic harmony.
What are the benefits of Orthodontic treatment?
Are the PerfectClear K Positioners comfortable?
As the K positioners have no metal wires and brackets, they are
comfortable, better still because they can be removed (by you - the
patient), eating, brushing and flossing are not problematic.
Will my speech be affected by wearing the PerfectClear K positioners?
As with many orthodontic treatments, K positioners may temporarily
affect your speech, and you may have slight lisp for a day or two.
However, as your tongue adjusts to the presence of the K positioners, any lisp or minor speech impediment caused by the device should disappear, usually fairly early on in the treatment.
