What Are Clear Aligners And How Do They Work?

Clear aligners are see-through plastic trays. You wear them on your teeth, and they gently move your teeth. Each set shifts your teeth a little more, improving your smile over time.
You take them out when you eat or brush. No food restrictions. No wires. No brackets. They are light and smooth. People won’t even notice you’re wearing them.
At Epion Clinic, we use the top 3D scanners to map your teeth. You’ll see your future smile before you begin. Each aligner is made to fit you.

Are Clear Aligners And Invisible Braces Different?

You may hear both names. Invisible braces in Kolkata and clear aligners mean the same thing. People say "invisible braces" because they're hard to see. But they are really clear plastic trays. Traditional braces use metal parts. Clear aligners use soft plastic. So yes, they're the same in what they do. But clear aligners feel smoother, cleaner, and less painful.

Know All the Types Before You Choose One

Before choosing clear aligner in Kolkata, it’s good to know what other methods are there. Braces are not all the same. Some use wires. Some use plastic. Some stay fixed. Some come off. What suits you depends on your teeth, your comfort, and your style.

Metal Braces Used Most by Teenagers

These are the most common. They use metal brackets and wires. They stay fixed to your teeth. Every few weeks, the dentist tightens them. That moves your teeth slowly. Kids and teens mostly wear them. They are strong. But they are very visible. You may feel shy wearing them.

Ceramic Braces That Blend With Teeth

Ceramic braces work like metal ones. But they use white or clear brackets. These match your teeth color. So, they are harder to see. They look better. Still, they need good care. They can stain if you drink a lot of tea or soft drinks.

Lingual Braces Hidden Behind Your Teeth

Lingual braces are metal braces too. But they go behind your teeth. People can’t see them. That’s the good part. But they feel strange in your mouth. They may hurt your tongue. They’re also harder to clean and take more time to adjust.

Self-Ligating Braces with Sliding Clips

These braces look like metal ones. But they don’t need rubber bands. They have a clip that holds the wire. This makes them more comfortable. You need fewer visits to the dentist. They are cleaner and easier to manage.

Clear Aligners for Smooth and Easy Fit

As we said before, these are see-through plastic trays. You wear them. They fit well and feel soft. You can take them off when you eat. You clean your teeth easily. They fix most common dental problems with no wires. And you smile without fear.
