Transparent orthodontic treatment is an innovative orthodontic treatment method based on the use of transparent and almost invisible irises. Unlike traditional methods that use metal cubes, or transparent cubes, the transparent irises create an aesthetic and almost completely imperceptible appearance. They are custom made for each patient using advanced 3D imaging technology of the mouth, which allows accurate planning of the treatment plan. The braces are placed on the teeth and gradually activated to move the teeth to the desired position. They create a lighter and more continuous force than other methods, which contributes to patient comfort.
Also, the entire process is controlled and planned well in advance using the advanced technology. This method is considered a significant breakthrough in the field of modern orthodontics. Tell us a little about the method. "The transparent treatment techniques were originally developed for adults who wanted treatment that was invisible as far as possible and at the same time controlled and efficient, says Dr. Boaz Tzur, "we based ourselves on advanced technologies of three-dimensional imaging of the teeth, which produce precise treatment plans for us."
What are the advantages of the method?
"The transparent technique has several advantages," says Dr. Zur. "First, the aesthetics - the irises are almost transparent and invisible. Second, it is possible to accurately predict the results of the treatment in advance and to personally adjust the number of irises and the rate of progress. Thirdly, the treatment is more comfortable for the patient, with less pain and less first aid, and of course no dice falling."
Is the method also suitable for children?
"In the last five years, we have been able to develop technologies adapted to children from the age of 8 and older," says Dr. Zur proudly. "The innovative device allows simultaneous treatment of both teeth and jaws, unlike traditional methods." Dr. Tzur adds that "the demand for aesthetic treatments among children is growing, and we are happy to be able to provide an adequate answer."

How long does the treatment usually last? "In cases of full treatment of complex problems, the process takes about a year and a half on average, for both adults and children. But for lighter repairs, the treatment can last only six months." Is the method more comfortable for the patient? Dr. Zur replies: "The treatment is much more convenient than the traditional method with cubes.
The adjustment period is shorter and there is much less pain and need for first aid treatments." Bottom line, the innovative technology of orthodontic treatments using the transparent method is undoubtedly revolutionary, but requires an understanding of the advantages and disadvantages and full cooperation on the part of the patient. However, it offers more precise and aesthetic treatment options , both for adults and children.It is possible that in the future we will see more applications of this advanced technology in the field of orthodontics.
