Clear aligners at Antalya Dental Hospital, Turkey
Clear aligners: What Are They, Benefits and Cost
Clear aligners, also called invisible aligners, are a type of orthodontic treatment that corrects misaligned or crooked teeth.
The clear solution to straight teeth.
Clear removable aligners are virtually invisible making them one of the more popular orthodontic treatments of choice by adults. They come in different brands but Invisalign and Eon are the known brands in the AYT (Antalya).
Clear aligners use 3D technology, so every treatment is customized for the patient. We use this advanced technology to pre-plan, simulate the desired result and make a series of aligners for the entire course of treatment. Each aligner moves your teeth as planned by your orthodontist, gently and gradually shifting their position day by day.

Because the preparation of the tooth is so slight you will probably not need a temporary veneer. The tooth will look very much the same after preparation, but will feel slightly less smooth.
There are various types of x-ray. Some show one or two teeth and their roots, while others can take pictures of several teeth at once. The most common x-rays are small ones, which are taken regularly to keep a check on the condition of the teeth and gums.
These show a few teeth at a time, but include the roots and surrounding areas. There are large x-rays that show the whole mouth, including all the teeth and the bone structure that supports the teeth. These are called panoramic x-rays.
There are also medium-sized x-rays, which show either one jaw at a time, or one side of the face. There are also electronic ‘imaging’ systems in use today. These use electronic probes instead of x-ray films and the picture is transmitted directly onto a screen.
Yes. Most dentists recommend using fluoride toothpaste to prevent decay. Fluoride has been proven to reduce tooth decay by at least 40 percent, so everyone should be encouraged to use fluoride toothpaste. There may already be fluoride in your drinking water. Research has shown that children living in areas that don’t have fluoride in the drinking water have more tooth decay than children living in areas that do have fluoride in the drinking water. Ask your dental team what amount of fluoride is right for you.
It is important to use only a small, pea-sized amount of toothpaste for children, as they are likely to swallow some of it. All children up to three years old should use a toothpaste with a fluoride level of at least 1000ppm (parts per million). After three years old, everyone should use a family toothpaste that has 1350ppm to 1500ppm of fluoride. After brushing you should spit out the toothpaste rather than rinsing, to prevent the fluoride being washed away.
If your dental team feel that you have a high risk of tooth decay, they may recommend and prescribe a toothpaste with more fluoride in it. This high level of fluoride can offer more protection to people more at risk of decay.
Costs will vary according to the type of crown and the material used. Always get a written estimate and treatment plan before starting any dental treatment.
