Don’t be ashamed of your smile!
Malocclusion is a problem with which children, adolescents and adults come to us. In our offices, we deal with orthodontic treatment with the use of solid metal and cosmetic braces and the Clear Aligner system.
Orthodontics treats malocclusion and irregularities in the alignment of the teeth. Malocclusion is reflected in the appearance of the face, which often correlates with self-esteem and self-confidence, also white and well-groomed teeth will not compensate for the correct positioning. Orthodontic treatment can be performed in both children and adults. In the case of permanent braces, permanent dentition is required (excluding persistent milk teeth).
At Mediss Dental Clinic, orthodontic treatment is provided by Dr. Katarzyna Rozmus-Grabińska, Dr. Małgorzata Szawłowska and Dr. Kamilla Bijowska, who can boast many successes in this field. Treatment with orthodontic braces is an area in which they are fully realized and fulfilled.

The next ones take place once a month. If two arches are required, a second arch is inserted after 2 months. In exceptional cases, it is possible to put on both arches at the same time.
Hygiene
Hygiene is very important in orthodontic patients & ndash; regular and thorough tooth brushing,
using single-tooth brushes, irrigator and mouthwash.
Clear Aligner
The Clear Aligner system was created for adolescents and adults, enabling them to correct malocclusion in a smooth manner, without the use of traditional orthodontic appliances equipped with wires and brackets. In this method, overlays made of biocompatible material are used practically unnoticeable by the environment. Bearing in mind the fact that the aligners can be easily removed from the teeth, this method is dedicated to disciplined patients who strictly follow the doctor’s instructions. During the treatment, which lasts from 6 to 8 months, the patient changes the overlays many times, which are individually prepared by the prosthetic laboratory, taking into account the progress of the treatment.
At each stage, the patient receives 3 overlays of various thicknesses along with information about the time of their wearing. As a result, the pressure on the teeth is gradually increased and they are moved in a fluid manner, which guarantees comfort.
Our clinic cooperates with a modern, licensed orthodontic laboratory, in which qualified dental technicians use computer equipment and software SCHEU-DENTAL companies make Clear Aligner to the maximum increases the precision of their implementation.
The aligners perfectly adhere to the teeth, so they do not adversely affect the quality of the teeth and allow you to laugh.
The material from which the overlays are made does not cause allergic reactions that may arise as a result of metal contact with the cheek and gums, it is well tolerated by the tissues inside the oral cavity.
The overlays are smooth, have no protruding metal elements, and do not cause irritation.
The overlays can be removed and replaced quickly and easily, e.g. when eating, drinking warm and colored drinks, brushing and flossing teeth, as well as cleaning the rails.
The cost of the entire Clear Aligner treatment process is comparable to traditional orthodontic appliances.
Transparent overlays are almost imperceptible, wearing them does not cause discomfort during meetings and talks at work or school.
The course of treatment with the Clear Aligner system
Consultation with an orthodontist
During the first visit, the orthodontist assesses whether the defect qualifies for treatment with Clear Aligner overlays. If so, the doctor takes cephalmetric and pantomographic images of the Patient and takes impressions, on the basis of which the technician in the laboratory will make a set-up along with precise measurements of individual tooth movements. The photos, models and set-ups made will be used by the doctor to prepare an individual treatment plan.
Treatment plan
During this visit, the orthodontist presents the Patient with a detailed treatment plan with Clear Aligner overlays, which includes the treatment time, treatment cost, information whether there will be any additional elements such as lifts, buttons, etc. during the treatment. laboratory first sets of Clear Aligner overlays.
Treatment
The patient receives the first set of aligners with three thicknesses (soft, medium and hard) for each of the dental arches. Each overlay should be worn for 1 week, strictly according to the doctor’s instructions. After 3 weeks, the doctor makes more impressions and another set of overlays is made. This procedure is repeated until the end of the active treatment period.
The period of retention, i.e. stabilizing the teeth in a new position
This period is usually twice as long as the time of active treatment. When stabilizing the teeth in a new position, the Patient wears a retention device recommended by an orthodontist.
Advantages of Clear Aligner braces
The treatment is painless, non-invasive and very well-tolerated by patients. Due to the fact that the overlays are transparent and practically invisible on the teeth, the system provides the highest degree of aesthetics and comfort. Very easy removal of the trays from the teeth allows you to maintain a high degree of oral hygiene during treatment.
The surfaces of Clear Aligner overlays are smooth, ideally suited to both the teeth and the mucosa of the alveolar process, thanks to which they ensure a high comfort of use. In many cases, malocclusion therapy with the use of aligners is cheaper than treatment with fixed braces.
Clear Aligners can be used to treat malocclusion such as e.g.:
By using additional elements such as buttons, elastic lifts or retention elements, the Clear Aligner overlay can be used to rotate the teeth and treat class II and III defects. The effectiveness of treatment depends primarily on the regularity of the use of the overlays as well as on the experience of the attending physician and the qualifications of the orthodontic laboratory performing these overlays.
