Visiting a dentist or orthodontist may seem like an inconvenience, which is one reason mail-in aligners appealing. While it might keep you out of the dental chair, it can open the door to several complications. During your treatment, you won\u2019t be under the supervision of a professional to monitor the movement of your teeth to ensure there aren\u2019t any unexpected obstacles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you\u2019re not under the care of a dentist, your treatment using clear aligners may not be tailored to your specifications because your plan won\u2019t be adjusted as needed. As a result, the aligners you receive in the mail may not reflect the actual steps your teeth need. If your teeth begin moving in an unanticipated direction, it can lead to big problems down the road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mail-order aligners require you to send an impression of your mouth to the company. A dentist will review the impression to see if you\u2019re a candidate. Unfortunately, patients who have complicated issues may not be able to fix their bite and alignment concerns. Choosing a professional system, like ClearCorrect, can be used to resolve a variety of imperfections that aren\u2019t possible using mail-in options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If an issue arises throughout your treatment, it won\u2019t be detected because you aren\u2019t being monitored by a dentist. You might end up with significant damage to your teeth and gums, like tooth loss and gum recession. As a result, you could require many expensive and painful corrective procedures to reverse the complications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Traditional impression material is outdated because it leaves too much room for error, which could affect your aligners. Dental offices use digital impressions and state-of-the-art technology to ensure accurate results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
