Teeth alignment with aligners
From the very beginning of the therapy, the teeth experience pressure, which stimulates the resorption of bone tissue in the area where it is needed. In the first stage, which can last from 12 to 52 weeks, the teeth shift by 1–2 mm. The effectiveness of the procedure is affected by the complexity of the case.
Then comes the stage of creating optimal occlusion (bite correction). As the teeth approach the ideal position, it is time to correct the closure of the dental arches. Aligners help to correct asymmetry and achieve the desired overlap of the upper teeth with the lower ones. The active phase of this stage lasts from 16 to 24 weeks.
The last stage of bite correction with aligners is associated with stabilizing the teeth in an unusual position for them. This step involves strengthening the bone tissue located near the roots of the teeth.
