The partnership between Active Aligners and Sereclean signifies a significant step forward in orthodontic care within the UK. At its core, this collaboration addresses the critical role of hygiene and biofilm management in achieving successful orthodontic outcomes.
The Science of Hygiene: Tackling Biofilm
A primary challenge for aligner and retainer wearers is the accumulation of biofilm—a thin, sticky layer of bacteria that adheres to surfaces in the mouth. Left unmanaged, biofilm can lead to:
- Oral Health Issues: Biofilm fosters harmful bacteria, increasing the risk of cavities, enamel erosion, and gum disease.
- Aligner Performance: Accumulated biofilm can cloud aligners, making them less aesthetically pleasing and potentially affecting their fit and effectiveness.
- Odor and Discomfort: Biofilm buildup can cause unpleasant odors, reducing patient satisfaction with their aligner treatment.
How Sereclean Excels
Sereclean’s innovative ultrasonic cleaning technology offers an unmatched solution for aligner hygiene.
- Advanced Ultrasonic Cleaning: Sereclean devices utilise ultrasonic waves to produce millions of microbubbles in a cleaning solution. These bubbles collapse on aligner surfaces, effectively removing biofilm, bacteria, and debris without scratching or damaging the appliance.
- Thorough Cleaning: Ultrasonic technology reaches areas that manual brushing or soaking cannot, ensuring every crevice of the aligner is cleaned.
- Gentle Yet Powerful: By reducing reliance on harsh chemicals, Sereclean provides a safe, effective cleaning option, ideal for daily use.
- Improved Transparency: Regular cleaning with Sereclean ensures aligners remain clear, preserving their aesthetic appeal throughout treatment.
