The biggest advantage of orthodontic pads is the ease of maintaining hygiene. Unlike the fixed apparatus, where food accumulates in the nooks and crannies between the locks and the wire, the overlays can be removed for eating and cleaning teeth. Thanks to this, oral hygiene is no different from that before treatment.
Another significant advantage of orthodontic overlays is their aesthetics. They are practically invisible, which is relevant for many patients who do not want braces to be visible when smiling or talking.
The speed of the whole procedure and the excellent end result are the reasons why more and more people decide to use orthodontic overlays as a way to improve their smile.
