How to Prepare Transparent Plates?
The dentist takes measurements from the mouth. It transfers this information to the computer with the three-dimensional scanning method.
The treatment plan scenario of the movement of the teeth is obtained on the computer. The treatment route is determined according to these scenarios. The desired tooth molds are removed from the three-dimensional printer. A flexible transparent plate is applied on these molds.
A plate suitable for each step is prepared for the path to be covered in the treatment stages. Thus, the plates to be used in the treatment are prepared.
How to Use Plates?
Transparent plaques are placed on the teeth, they cover the teeth and move the teeth in the desired direction as long as they are in the mouth. The use of the plate is in the form of placing it in the mouth, removing it in activities such as eating, drinking, brushing teeth, using dental floss. In other words, the person can remove and put the record himself. He himself uses the record as a part of his daily life.
When Does The Treatment Start After Measuring?
Considering the entry of the information into the computer after the measurements are taken and the preparation time of the molds, transparent plates are obtained after about two weeks. In other words, the plates are taken after two weeks and placed in the mouth and the treatment is started.
How Does The Treatment Process Progress With Transparent Plates?
Unlike normal orthodontic treatment in transparent aligners, brackets are produced by 3D printers for the person himself. As long as the plaques are in the mouth, they direct the teeth towards the desired movement. The plate is changed every 15 days and at each change, that is, with each new plate, the teeth are advanced in the desired direction in a planned manner.
During the treatment, patients can easily remove the plates themselves, it is quite simple, they use a plate for about 20 hours a day, about two weeks after using the plate, the plate of the next step is given to be used. They use this plaque in the same way for 20 hours a day for two weeks.

Advantages of Transparent Plates
İzmir stands out with its transparent plaque treatment advantages. Here are the advantages of clear plaque treatment:
Superior oral hygiene
It is very difficult to maintain oral hygiene with braces. It is difficult to clean the food residues that get on the brackets after each meal. Toothbrushes alone are not enough to clean the food that gets on or between the braces. Additional cleaning aids such as interface brushes, special threads, etc. are needed. Oral hygiene is provided quite easily in transparent plates. It is sufficient to remove the transparent plaques from the mouth, clean the normal teeth and apply dental floss.
Easy to use
The use of clear plates does not require any special handling. It is very easy to use. You can remove the transparent plaques from the set prepared only in a series and put them on your teeth, and the treatment begins.
Painless
Transparent aligners fit your teeth tightly but comfortably and try to shape them and put them in their right place. You may experience a slight tightening in the first days, but after your teeth get used to your clear aligners, there will be a problem-free orthodontic treatment process.
Quick results
Traditional braces take between 12 and 18 months to work effectively and straighten your teeth. The rupture and breakage of the braces, the deterioration of the wings and properties of the brackets continuously prolongs the treatment period. Transparent aligners start to give results in less than 6 months and orthodontic treatment is completed in 5-6 months shorter than braces in total time.
No dietary restrictions with Transparent Plates
Consumption of many foods is prohibited in orthodontic treatment with braces. Hard foods break the brackets, break them. One of the biggest advantages of wearing clear aligners for teeth is that you don’t have to worry about maintaining a particular diet. You can easily remove the plates while eating and put them back on after eating.
Sports Activities – Use of musical instruments
When traditional metal brackets were the only option for straightening teeth, some teens and adults felt their quality of life had declined. They needed to watch what they ate, to avoid foods on the braces blacklist. If they played a woodwind, this hobby was put on hold until the end of treatment, and there were ample warnings of the dangers to those involved in the sport. When Invisalign clear aligners were introduced, they were a game changer for musicians, foodies, and sports enthusiasts. It has been reported that sports can be performed safely with Invisalign clear aligners, and musical instruments can be used by removing or attaching them.
Customized solution
There is no one-size-fits-all solution for any treatment, and clear aligners effectively follow this concept. Each patient has their own customized plaques designed and produced in three dimensions to fit their teeth and for treatment.
