At Lowcountry Dental Associates, nestled in the heart of John’s Island, South Carolina, we’re committed to providing our patients with the latest advancements in dental care. ClearCorrect, a state-of-the-art orthodontic treatment, offers an effective way to straighten teeth discreetly and comfortably.

Delving into ClearCorrect: What It Offers

ClearCorrect is an innovative orthodontic system that uses clear, custom-made, removable aligners to gradually move teeth into their desired position. Unlike traditional braces, these aligners are virtually invisible and can be taken out for eating, brushing, and flossing. This makes them a popular choice for adults and teens seeking a less noticeable orthodontic treatment.

The Advantages of Choosing ClearCorrect

  • Discretion: Thanks to their transparency, ClearCorrect aligners are hardly noticeable, providing an aesthetic advantage over metal braces.
  • Comfort: With no wires or brackets, the smooth plastic aligners offer a more comfortable fit.
  • Convenience: The removability of ClearCorrect aligners allows for easier cleaning and no dietary restrictions.
  • Effectiveness: For many cases, ClearCorrect can achieve results comparable to those of traditional braces.

Your Journey with ClearCorrect

The process begins with a consultation at Lowcountry Dental Associates, where Dr. Randy Jones or Dr. Robert Gamble will assess your teeth and discuss your goals. If you’re a suitable candidate for ClearCorrect, impressions of your teeth will be taken to create your custom aligners. Throughout your treatment, you’ll receive new sets of aligners every few weeks to progressively straighten your teeth.

Setting Realistic Expectations for Your Treatment

Your commitment is crucial to the success of your ClearCorrect treatment. Wearing the aligners for the recommended 22 hours per day and attending regular check-ups with our dentists are key factors. While every patient’s journey is unique, most treatments span over 12 to 18 months.
