The Clearstep system of teeth straightening. A South East London dentist advises us
17 / 10 / 2010
The Clearstep Brace is a white plastic teeth brace that has revolutionised the way we straighten our teeth, says a South East London dentist. Your dentist will first take impressions of your teeth, digital photos and in some cases digital X-rays, from these they will be able to determine if your teething problem can be fixed using the Clearstep system. It can`t fix all misaligned teething problems, but the good news is that it can solve most of them. Overlapped teeth and gaps in between your teeth are two problems the system can and does solve with great efficiency, and it is a very comfortable way of wearing a brace. The braces are clear in appearance and made from a tough plastic, they are very tight when first fitted but after a few days of working they will feel looser and more comfortable. They need to be changed every two weeks in order to work properly, by that time they will be very loose on the teeth as they will have done their job by then. Each stage of the course is carefully planned, and your dentist will be able to show you how much progress you`ve made at each visit. They are removable for eating and cleaning your teeth, they are plastic and so they need to be kept away from high temperature changes, so when drinking hot drinks it is advisable to remove them, the same goes for fizzy drinks. A special toothbrush is provided with a solution for keeping them clean and sterile.
