What is invisible orthodontics?<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

Invisible orthodontics corrects the position of your teeth using clear, removable aligners that are custom-made for your mouth. No brackets, no wires, and virtually no one will notice you’re undergoing treatment. <\/p><\/div>

Each set of aligners gradually moves your teeth into their planned position. Before we make the first set, we take a 3D scan of your mouth<\/strong> at our clinic in Ibi and design the entire treatment plan<\/strong>, so you can see a simulation of the final result from day one. <\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/div>

Virtually imperceptible<\/p><\/div><\/div>

The highly transparent material means that almost no one will notice you’re wearing braces, even up close.<\/p>

<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/div>

You take it off to eat and clean yourself<\/p><\/div><\/div>

You can eat whatever you want and maintain your usual oral hygiene routine. You just wear the aligner for the rest of the day. <\/p>

<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/div>

You see the result before you start<\/p><\/div><\/div>

With our 3D simulation, we’ll show you what your smile will look like before we make your first aligner.<\/p>

Cases We Handle<\/p>

Who is invisible orthodontic treatment for?<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div>

Invisible braces can treat the vast majority of cases, especially in adults and teenagers. During your first visit, we\u2019ll examine your mouth and honestly tell you whether this is the best option for you or if your case would be better treated with a different system. <\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/div><\/div>

Crowded Teeth or Crooked Teeth<\/h3><\/div>

When there isn’t enough space for the teeth and they overlap, aligners gradually and carefully reposition them.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/div><\/div>

Gaps between the teeth (diastemas)<\/h3><\/div>

If you have gaps between your teeth, clear aligners close them and create a harmonious smile without the need for any tooth reduction.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/div><\/div>

Mild or moderate bite problems<\/h3><\/div>

Overbite, open bite, or crossbite: Many bite issues can be successfully corrected with aligners, improving both aesthetics and function.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
<\/path><\/svg><\/div><\/div>

Adults Who Don’t Want Braces<\/h3><\/div>

The preferred choice for those who, whether for work or social reasons, don’t want anyone to notice they’re wearing braces. It’s never too late to start. <\/p><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n

Invisalign or Spark: the two systems we use<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div>

Unlike most clinics, which use only one system, at our dental clinic in Ibi<\/a> we offer you the two world-leading brands of clear aligners. Dr. Espuelas chooses the one best suited to your case, not just the one he has available. Here\u2019s the difference between the two. <\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019d been thinking about getting braces for years, but I always put it off. Finally, I made up my mind and came to see Dr. Espuelas. He explained everything to me very calmly, without pressuring me, and recommended Spark aligners. It took a little over a year, and the results have been incredible. I\u2019m very happy with the care I received and with how my smile turned out. <\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
