Who is a Candidate for Bioliners™ Clear Braces?

Bioliners™ clear braces are an appealing alternative to traditional bracket-and-wire braces for many reasons. The transparent aligners used in the Bioliners™ system are virtually invisible when worn, and can be easily removed when patients need to eat, eliminating many of the cumbersome aspects of traditional braces.

However, if you have significant problems with your teeth that require major re-alignment and correction, Bioliners™ might not be the most efficient solution. Bioliners™ can address minor crowding, gaps, crossbites, underbites, and overbites, but anything too severe is best served by regular braces. For patients needing the traditional approach, Willow Dental offers the Carriere Self-Ligating Bracket System , which has several advantages over traditional metal braces.

Bioliners™ are a very effective method of treatment when used:

• To perform minor corrections and re-alignment
• To correct teeth that have relapsed from previous orthodontic treatment
• As a retainer after another method of orthodontic alignment
• To complete treatment if you removed your braces too early

If you are interested in using Bioliners™ to correct your smile, please contact our experienced dentistry team at Willow Dental today to schedule a consultation and determine if you are a candidate. Willow Dental serves the Toronto and Mississauga areas of Ontario.
