How CandidPro Works

To get started, schedule a consultation with Dr. Cha, your dentist in McKinney. He will analyze your teeth and determine whether CandidPro would work for you. If it looks like a good fit, he will send detailed impressions of your teeth to the CandidPro lab, which will fabricate your custom clear aligners.

Once your aligners are ready, you’ll wear each one for about two weeks before moving onto the next. As the aligners apply consistent pressure to your teeth, they will gradually shift into their proper positions. You’ll visit us periodically throughout your treatment so we can monitor your progress.

Indications for CandidPro

CandidPro is capable of correcting a wide range of mild to moderate dental alignment problems, including crowded teeth, gaps between the teeth, and malocclusion (a misaligned bite).

Crowded Teeth

Crowded, overlapping teeth can trap food between them and be at a high risk of decay. They are also prone to breakage Fortunately, CandidPro (along with possible extractions) can give each tooth the space it needs to thrive.

Gaps Between Teeth

Gapped teeth may cause you to be self-conscious about your smile. They can also leave your gums vulnerable to irritation. CandidPro can shift the teeth closer together to enhance your smile’s aesthetics and improve your oral health.

Malocclusion

Overbite, underbite, open bite, and crossbite are all forms of malocclusion. They can increase your risk of TMJ disorder and a range of other problems. CandidPro , usually with the help of other orthodontic accessories, is often able to correct such bite issues.

The Benefits of CandidPro

Some of the top benefits of CandidPro include:

The aligners are barely noticeable once they are on the teeth, making them ideal for image-conscious individuals.
Easy oral hygiene. The aligners are removable, so you won’t have to learn any special techniques for brushing and flossing your teeth.
No dietary restrictions. You’ll remove your aligners at mealtimes, so you can feel free to eat all of your favorite treats.
Fast treatment. Treatment times vary from patient to patient. On average, CandidPro takes only 12 months to finish its work.

How Much Does CandidPro Cost?
