There are various methods to correct dental irregularities, but using foils for teeth straightening is the most comfortable approach. This treatment involves the application of a series of almost invisible aligner trays that the patient changes every two or three weeks.
These aligner trays are custom-made for each patient. By changing the aligners, the teeth will gradually shift (0.25 millimeters per aligner) until they reach their final position as prescribed by the orthodontist.

Four Steps for teeth straightening
If you are considering foils for teeth straightening, the first step is to determine whether it is the right choice for you. While foils for teeth straightening offers versatile treatment, it may not be a solution for all orthodontic issues.
When you decide to begin the treatment with clear aligners, we conduct X-rays, capture photographs, and take impressions of your teeth, which are sent to the manufacturer along with our instructions on how we want the teeth to move. Technicians input the information into the computer to generate a 3D representation of your teeth and a computer model illustrating how they will shift to the desired positions. It typically takes around a month for the aligners to reach our office.
The aligners are worn in a specific sequence, typically for about two weeks each. As your treatment progresses, each new aligner will serve to bring your teeth into a more correct, optimal position. It is recommended to wear the aligners continuously (24/7), but you can take them off for eating or brushing your teeth, as well as on special occasions. This way, the alignment of your teeth will progress according to the plan.
After completing orthodontic therapy and removing the braces, the retention phase follows, which is equally important as wearing the appliance (braces). A tooth retainer is crafted based on the patient’s dental impression and is made of hard, transparent plastic, making it almost invisible. Its role is to maintain the teeth in their corrected position.
The treatment lasts at least 6 months, and the duration varies from case to case. The good thing is that results become noticeable within a few weeks of wearing foils for teeth straightening.
Foils for teeth straightening/clear aligners are practically invisible and hardly noticeable. Additionally, they are easy to remove, ensuring no disruption to your daily routine for teeth brushing and meals.
Foils for teeth straightening/clear aligners can be taken off, so there are no dietary restrictions. With traditional braces, unfortunately, there is a long list of foods you cannot enjoy as they may damage or get stuck in your braces.
Foils are suitable for teenagers and adults with mild to moderate orthodontic irregularities. During the examination, the dentist will assess whether you are a good candidate for this type of therapy.
Most patients feel slight discomfort or pressure for the first few days after changing the foil. This is a normal sign that the foil is working and moving the teeth.
Foils should be worn for at least 20-22 hours a day. They are removed only during eating, drinking (except water) and brushing teeth.
The price of foil therapy depends on the complexity of the case, but in many cases it is similar to that of classic orthodontic treatments. At the first visit, you will receive a detailed plan and cost estimate.
