The fact that you wore braces as a child doesn’t necessarily guarantee that you won’t need minor adjustments as an adult. The teeth can change position with time even after orthodontic treatment. Fortunately there is a solution for this actuality. Realine is a realignment system specifically designed to accommodate minor recurrences of orthodontic issues. The treatment can be used to close noticeable gaps between the front teeth or to straighten teeth that have slipped back out of their corrected position. Even though these adjustments are considered to be relatively insignificant compared to extensive orthodontic therapy, they can mean a big difference to someone who is embarrassed to smile because of an imperfection, no matter how slight. Most adults would feel awkward wearing a visible retainer or other similar appliance, but the Reline system eliminates that issue. Patients are fitted with specifically made aligners which they will use for approximately a ten week duration. These clear aligners are comfortable to wear and can be removed when eating or to make brushing and flossing easier. Compass Dental offers Realine invisible alignment therapy to accommodate their patients who are looking for a better way to improve their smile. Dr. Sigmon can assess your needs and determine if you are a good candidate for Realine. Call the office today @ (828)385-5155 to set up your appointment.
