ClearCorrect® and Invisalign® are actually very similar systems in that they both use removable clear plastic aligners to gently straighten teeth. However, there are some slight differences between the two systems that you should know about if you're considering straightening your teeth with clear aligners in Mona Vale.
#1 Clear Aligner Thickness
Invisalign clear aligners are made of SmartTrack® material, which is slightly thicker than the clear plastic ClearCorrect uses. This makes Invisalign a better option for more complex tooth movements and bite corrections that may be impossible with a lighter material.
Conversely, ClearCorrect's use of lighter plastic may provide a more comfortable fit and better discretion, as the aligners fit snugly and are less noticeable.
#2 Cost
Invisalign's vast and well-established network demands a higher cost than other clear aligner systems. This might make ClearCorrect more affordable for tighter budgets.
#3 A Wider Network
It may be easier to find Invisalign providers as this company has been around longer and has a broader range of providers worldwide.
