Aligners are the most modern appliances for correcting misaligned teeth. Unlike traditional metal braces, aligners can be removed and are almost invisible when worn. Due to their precision, comfort and numerous other advantages, they are gradually replacing traditional metal braces.

Today, many malocclusions can be treated with aligners. In countries such as Switzerland, Norway, USA or South Korea aligner treatments for adults have since overtaken traditional braces. Of course, like any other technology, aligners have their current limitations. For this reason, we offer a free consultation where our dentists can examine your teeth in more detail and discuss treatment options with you.
Malocclusion types that JustSmile treats:
Crowding occurs when the teeth do not have enough space next to each other in an arch. In addition to aesthetic problems, this discrepancy makes it more difficult to clean the teeth and can lead to gum inflammation, tartar and tooth decay more easily than with a normal set of teeth.
In contrast to crowded teeth, a gap dentition is when the available space is larger than the teeth need. Most often a gap is formed between the two upper incisors, called diastema, but it can also occur in posterior regions.
The plaque that easily sticks in the gaps can lead to gingivitis and tooth decay.
