Clear Correct Quiz Answers
A1. False – Clear Correct aligners can be taken out when you eat and brush your teeth.
A2. C – After the dentist uses 3-D computer imaging technology to create a personalized treatment plan, skilled technicians will be sent the information, so that they can manufacture the series of aligners that will straighten your smile. You will change to the next set in the series approximately every three weeks
A3. True – Your dentist will want to check your progress every four to six weeks to ensure that the aligners are doing their job.
A4. D – Clear Correct can help people with a number of orthodontic needs to attain a uniform smile. In addition to gaps, crooked and overcrowded teeth, and misaligned bites, Clear Correct can make it easier for you to defend your teeth against plaque buildup. Overlapping teeth are difficult to clean, and can be a breeding ground for the bacteria that lead to tooth decay.
