Do you have noticeable gaps between your teeth? They might make you feel self-conscious about your smile, or perhaps they allow food to irritate your sensitive gum tissue. In either case, it is understandable if you are interested in getting rid of those pesky spaces. There are a few different treatment options that may help, including clear aligners, veneers, and Bioclear. In this blog post, we focus specifically on Bioclear and its advantages.
What Is Bioclear?
You have probably heard of dental bonding, which uses a tooth-colored composite resin to reshape the teeth and hide aesthetic imperfections. Essentially, Bioclear is an advanced form of dental bonding. It uses the same type of resin, but instead of simply covering the outer surface of a tooth, it covers the entire tooth. This is possible thanks to the help of special matrices, which keep the bonding in place and help it conform to the desired shape.
Bioclear Can Close Gaps
Bioclear is a suitable treatment option for many cases where there is extra space between the teeth. It can be used to slightly enlarge the teeth that surround a gap, which fills in the empty space, thereby enhancing the smile’s overall appearance and protecting the gums from irritation.
Advantages of Bioclear
When it comes to closing gaps between teeth, Bioclear offers some outstanding benefits:
- The treatment usually takes just one appointment, making it faster than both clear aligners and veneers.
- It is affordable for most patients.
- The results have the potential to last for 10 years or longer.
- Bioclear bonding can be repaired if necessary. In contrast, a damaged veneer usually has to be replaced.
- Bioclear is a minimally invasive treatment. Because it does not require drilling or the removal of any enamel, most patients have a comfortable treatment experience.
- Bioclear looks very natural.
Is Bioclear Right for You?
To find out if Bioclear is a suitable way to close the gaps between your teeth, consult with a dentist who offers it. They will evaluate your oral health and learn about your goals for treatment before recommending your next steps. While Bioclear can close most small gaps, it may not work if the gaps are particularly large, or if you have other dental alignment issues that require orthodontic care.
