Self liagating Braces
Hello Doctor,
I want to remove my braces.Its just been 4 days right now. I don't want it now. I want to go for clear aligner treatment now. So can the brackets remove now? And Does it damage the teeth as it sticks with glue. Or any enamel issue. I really want now to go for clear aligners. Now can we remove the braces right after 4 days?
Please advise.

Hey ... you need to give yourself and your braces and orthodontist some time for adaptation. Initial 2 weeks will be difficult ... be rationale why you want to go for aligners? Removing the brackets will again be traumatic as you will lose 0.2 mm enamel without actually achieving any good result. I would recommend you to use ortho relief wax if you are uncomfortable. They make life much easier

Go for aligners asap, if u are uncomfortable with theses braces. But with time you will be habitual to theses braces.Just have patience if u can otherwise you can go for an aligners immediately.
