Looking for a discreet, effective way to straighten your smile? CandidPro® clear aligners could be your answer!
Designed to combine the convenience of at-home care with the oversight of a local dental professional, CandidPro offers a unique approach to orthodontic treatment with remote monitoring technology, which allows patients to scan their teeth at home using a mobile device. This enables their dentist to track progress and make adjustments without frequent in-office visits. This system helps streamline treatment while maintaining professional oversight throughout.
At Jonathan Hunt, DDS, Dr. Hunt and our expert team provide personalized guidance throughout every step of the clear aligner journey, ensuring a smile transformation that is safe, efficient, and tailored to your needs.
How Do Clear Aligners Work?
Clear aligners are transparent, custom-made, mouthpiece-like trays that gradually shift your teeth into the desired position. Each set is designed to apply gentle, consistent pressure on targeted areas, slowly aligning your smile and bite over time. Aligners are typically worn for 20–22 hours per day and swapped out every couple of weeks based on your treatment plan.
Unlike braces, clear aligners are removable, meaning you can take them out to eat, brush, and floss. This flexibility makes them especially appealing to adults and teens seeking a flexible, low-profile solution for orthodontic treatment.
What Are the Main Benefits of Clear Aligners?
CandidPro clear aligners offer several standout advantages:
- Discreet appearance — CandidPro trays are nearly invisible, making them ideal for patients concerned about aesthetics during their orthodontic treatment.
- Removability — As you can take your trays out for meals, brushing, and special occasions, CandidPro facilitates treatment without dietary or lifestyle restrictions.
- Fewer office visits — With CandidPro’s remote monitoring technology, you get the benefit of regular oversight without frequent trips to the dentist.
- Comfort – No wires or brackets means less irritation to cheeks and gums.
- Efficiency — Most CandidPro cases are completed in under 12 months, depending on complexity.
Who Would Benefit from Clear Aligners?
Clear aligners are best suited for patients with mild to moderate orthodontic issues, like:
- Crowded teeth
- Gaps between teeth
- Mild overbite, underbite, or crossbite
- Relapse from previous orthodontic treatment
However, clear aligners may not be ideal for complex cases that require extensive jaw repositioning. That’s why a consultation with a trained provider like Dr. Hunt is crucial before starting treatment.
Step-by-Step: CandidPro Clear Aligner Treatment with Dr. Jonathan Hunt
- Initial consultation in High Point — Your CandidPro journey begins with a comprehensive exam at our High Point dental office. During this appointment, Dr. Hunt evaluates your teeth, bite, and overall oral health to determine if you're a candidate for CandidPro. If approved, your digital impressions are taken using 3-D scanning technology.
- Personalized treatment plan — Your scans are then sent to CandidPro’s orthodontic team, where a licensed orthodontist designs a custom treatment plan that includes a 3-D simulation to preview your future smile.
- Delivery of aligners — Once your aligners are fabricated, they’re delivered to your door. We will help you get started and explain how to wear and care for your aligners.
- Remote monitoring with CandidMonitoring™ — Instead of frequent in-office checkups, CandidPro uses a mobile app, CandidMonitoring, and intraoral scan technology to let you upload progress photos from anywhere for monitoring and real-time feedback from Dr. Hunt.
- Completion and retainers — Once your treatment is complete, you’ll receive retainers to maintain your new smile. Regular wear, especially at night, will help prevent your teeth from shifting back out of alignment.
