Day-to-Day Experience — Aligners vs Braces in Treskillard
Aligner patients in Treskillard typically experience: minimal dietary restrictions (trays are removed for meals), easier oral hygiene, the social benefit of near-invisibility, and the minor inconvenience of removing and storing trays throughout the day. The biggest discipline challenge is consistent tray wear — under 20 hours daily significantly extends treatment time and may compromise the planned result.
Fixed brace patients experience: some dietary restrictions (hard, sticky or chewy foods risk bracket damage), more demanding oral hygiene (specialised brushes, interdental tools), and greater visibility — though ceramic or lingual options reduce this. The advantage is passive treatment: the appliance does the work without the patient needing to remember to put anything in.
