A Straighter, Healthier Smile—Designed Around Your Life
If you have been thinking about straightening your teeth but do not want traditional metal braces, CandidPro clear aligners offer a discreet and convenient way to transform your smile.
At Miami Shores Dental Group, we are proud to offer CandidPro clear aligner treatment for patients who want to improve the appearance, alignment, and function of their smiles.
CandidPro uses a series of custom-made clear aligners to gradually move your teeth into healthier positions. Because the aligners are removable and nearly invisible when worn, treatment can fit comfortably into your everyday life.
Whether you are concerned about crowded teeth, unwanted spaces, an uneven bite, or simply want a straighter smile, our dental team can evaluate your teeth and determine whether CandidPro is right for you.
What Are CandidPro Clear Aligners?
CandidPro is a clear aligner system designed to gradually reposition teeth without traditional brackets and wires.
Your treatment begins with an in-person dental evaluation and detailed records of your teeth. These records are used to develop a personalized treatment plan and create a series of clear aligners representing different stages of your smile transformation.
As you progress through the aligners, gentle, controlled forces gradually guide your teeth toward their planned positions.
The result is orthodontic treatment that is discreet, personalized, and professionally supervised.
Why Straighten Your Teeth?
A straighter smile can certainly improve your confidence, but tooth alignment is about much more than appearance.
When teeth do not fit together properly, the condition is known as malocclusion. Depending on the type and severity of misalignment, you may experience problems such as:
- Crowded or overlapping teeth
- Difficulty brushing or flossing certain areas
- Spaces between teeth
- An uneven bite
- Tooth wear or chipping
- Discomfort when chewing or biting
- Difficulty keeping your teeth and gums clean
Proper alignment can make daily oral hygiene easier while helping create a more balanced and functional bite.
What Can CandidPro Treat?
CandidPro can be used to address many common orthodontic concerns, including:
When there is not enough room in the mouth for teeth to align properly, teeth may overlap, rotate, or become difficult to clean.
Excessive spaces or gaps between teeth can affect both the appearance and function of your smile.
A crossbite occurs when some upper teeth sit inside the lower teeth when you bite down.
Certain bite problems can place uneven pressure on teeth and contribute to premature tooth wear.
Clear aligner therapy may also help reposition teeth that project outward or have rotated out of their ideal positions.
Every smile is different. Your dentist will evaluate your teeth, gums, bite, and overall oral health to determine whether CandidPro is appropriate for your needs.
The CandidPro Patient Experience
One of the biggest advantages of CandidPro is that treatment combines professional dental supervision with technology designed to make orthodontic care more convenient.
Your CandidPro journey typically begins with an in-office consultation at Miami Shores Dental Group. We will evaluate your smile and collect the diagnostic information necessary to determine whether clear aligner treatment is appropriate.
If you decide to move forward, a customized treatment plan is developed for your smile.
Once your aligners are ready, you will receive instructions explaining how to wear and care for them. Most patients are instructed to wear their aligners for approximately 22 hours each day, removing them for eating, drinking certain beverages, brushing, and flossing.
As treatment progresses, you will move through a series of aligners that gradually guide your teeth toward their planned positions.
Professional Treatment With Convenient Remote Monitoring
CandidPro incorporates remote monitoring technology into the treatment experience.
Using the ProMonitoring™ app, you can periodically submit images of your teeth from your smartphone. These images allow your dental provider to evaluate your progress between office visits.
The app can also guide you through check-ins and notify you when it may be time to progress to your next aligner.
Remote monitoring does not replace professional dental care. Instead, it provides your dentist with another way to follow your treatment and helps make the clear aligner experience more convenient.
Benefits of CandidPro Clear Aligners
Patients choose clear aligners for many reasons.
The transparent aligners are discreet, making them an appealing option for adults and other patients who prefer an alternative to visible metal braces.
You can remove your aligners when eating and drinking, so you can continue enjoying your favorite foods without many of the restrictions associated with traditional braces.
Because the aligners are removable, you can continue brushing and flossing your natural teeth normally throughout treatment.
CandidPro aligners are made from smooth material and do not use metal brackets or wires.
Your aligners are created specifically for your teeth and treatment goals.
ProMonitoring technology allows your provider to follow your progress remotely between scheduled visits.
Your treatment begins with an in-person dental evaluation and continues under professional supervision.
What Is the ProMonitoring™ App?
The ProMonitoring app helps connect you with your dental provider throughout your CandidPro treatment.
When it is time for a check-in, the app guides you through taking images of your teeth using your smartphone. Your provider can then review your progress and determine whether your teeth are moving according to your treatment plan.
The app can also provide reminders and help you know when it is appropriate to move to your next set of aligners.
This combination of in-office dentistry and remote technology can reduce unnecessary appointments while keeping your treatment professionally monitored.
How Long Does CandidPro Treatment Take?
Treatment time varies from patient to patient.
Some relatively minor alignment concerns may be corrected within several months, while more complicated cases can require a year or longer.
Factors that can influence treatment time include:
- The type and severity of your tooth misalignment
- Your bite
- The amount of tooth movement required
- Your individual biological response to treatment
- How consistently you wear your aligners
- Whether additional orthodontic techniques are required
After evaluating your smile and developing your treatment plan, your dental provider can give you a more individualized estimate.
Living With CandidPro Aligners
Clear aligners are designed to integrate easily into everyday life.
You will generally wear your aligners throughout the day and while sleeping, removing them primarily for meals, snacks, oral hygiene, and as instructed by your dentist.
Before replacing your aligners after eating, brush and floss whenever possible. Keeping both your teeth and aligners clean helps maintain good oral health throughout treatment.
Consistency is essential. Wearing your aligners according to your prescribed schedule helps keep your tooth movement on track.
Will I Need Attachments?
Some tooth movements require additional assistance.
Small tooth-colored composite attachments can sometimes be placed on selected teeth to give the aligners additional leverage for specific movements. Depending on your individual treatment plan, you may or may not need attachments.
Your dentist will explain whether attachments or other orthodontic techniques are necessary before or during treatment.
Will I Need a Retainer After CandidPro?
Yes, retention is an important part of maintaining your new smile.
Teeth naturally have a tendency to move after orthodontic treatment. Wearing a retainer as instructed helps maintain the positions achieved with your clear aligners.
Your dentist will recommend an appropriate retention plan once your active CandidPro treatment is complete.
CandidPro Clear Aligners FAQs
Can I eat while wearing my aligners?
Aligners should generally be removed when eating. One of the advantages of removable aligners is that you can continue enjoying a wide variety of foods during treatment.
How many hours per day should I wear CandidPro?
Patients are commonly instructed to wear their aligners for approximately 22 hours per day. Your dentist will provide specific instructions based on your treatment plan.
Can I brush and floss normally?
Yes. Simply remove your aligners and brush and floss your teeth as usual. Maintaining excellent oral hygiene is especially important during orthodontic treatment.
Do I still need to visit the dentist?
Yes. CandidPro is professionally supervised treatment. Remote monitoring can make progress checks more convenient, but your dentist may still recommend periodic in-office appointments.
How often do I change my aligners?
Your schedule depends on your individual treatment plan and how your teeth are responding. The ProMonitoring app can help facilitate progress checks before you advance to another aligner.
Can CandidPro treat complicated cases?
CandidPro may be appropriate for a wide range of orthodontic concerns, but every patient is different. Some cases may require attachments, elastics, other techniques, or an alternative orthodontic treatment. An examination is the best way to determine your options.
Am I a candidate for CandidPro?
The best candidates have healthy teeth and gums and an orthodontic concern that can appropriately be treated with clear aligners. Your dentist must examine your teeth and bite before recommending treatment.
How much does CandidPro cost?
The cost depends on the complexity and anticipated length of your treatment. After your consultation, our team can discuss your personalized treatment plan, associated costs, available insurance benefits, and applicable payment options.
When will I notice my teeth moving?
Every patient responds differently, but changes may become noticeable relatively early in treatment. Your complete results will develop gradually as you progress through your prescribed series of aligners.
