Straighten Your Smile with Dr. Shlafer
Having a smile you can be confident in is something we all deserve. If misaligned teeth prevent you from showing off your smile, orthodontic treatment can help you achieve a smile you can be proud of. More importantly, misaligned teeth are more susceptible to oral health issues like tooth decay and periodontal disease. If your teeth are in need of alignment, metal braces are a tried and true solution. However, metal braces can be a huge inconvenience. They prevent you from eating certain foods, they’re difficult to clean, and the treatment process often takes more than a year.
Inman aligners offer a solution to all of these problems. That’s why our orthodontist recommends Inman aligners for Michigan patients in Canton, Plymouth, Southfield, Franklin, Beverly Hills, and the surrounding areas looking for a modern solution to orthodontic treatment.
Explore our guide to learn why Inman aligners are the right choice for you.
Benefits of Inman Aligners
Inman aligners offer a range of unique benefits that separate them from other orthodontic treatments. Some of these include:
- Removable — You can remove your aligners before meals, allowing you to enjoy all your favorite foods. This also makes them easy to clean, and you only need to wear the aligners for 16 hours daily.
- Convenient — Unlike Invisalign®, you’ll only wear one pair of aligners throughout your treatment. You’ll only need to schedule appointments every two to three weeks.
- Fast — Inman aligners straighten your teeth in 6-18 weeks.
- Affordable — This treatment is less expensive than metal braces or Invisalign, so you don’t have to break the bank to straighten your smile.
Are You a Candidate?
Inman aligners are designed to treat mild to moderate crowding. Often, the best candidates for Inman aligners are patients who previously had some form of orthodontic correction, but now their front teeth are starting to shift again.
We use Inman aligners to treat a variety of orthodontic issues, including:
- Crowded front teeth
- Crossbites
- Pre-alignment for cosmetic treatments
- Orthodontic relapse
To see if Inman aligners are the best treatment for you, we recommend scheduling a complimentary consultation with Dr. Shlafer at (248) 781-0040.
The Treatment Process
To begin the process, Dr. Shlafer will take precise impressions of your teeth, which will be used to custom-design your aligners. After you receive your appliance, you’ll wear it for 16-20 hours per day, and Dr. Shlafer will check on the progress of your treatment every two to three weeks.
The aligners use Nickel Titanium coil springs, which power two bows that gently resist each other and guide your teeth into proper alignment.
