Started with Orthoclear, switched to clearcorrect, almost finished now? Very dissappointed, it has taken over two years when it was sold to me as a "faster than traditional braces, but invisible" treatment. I would like to discourage others from vague promises. Ask for computer progression, dates, alternatives, see other patients before-after pictures. Do not try Clearcorrect or Orthoclear, their trays kept on cracking on day 2-4 of use, and there were no replacements, but tray did not work as well. Almost no movement in 2 years. Rip off! Invest in cosmetic or traditional system.
Great review?
My Doctor: Join to view doctor's name
Dr L performed traditional braces on my daughter, who was left with even but projected teeth. When I started her treatment was not over, he did not reveal to me the lack of certainty of results, and the length, or the need for buttons. I was told it would be 6 months to a year. Told me it could be cheaper and was way better than all others. My mouth looked better before. It has caused an overbite, I have sticking-out teeth and speech problems, which as a teacher, I can't take it for over 2 years!!!!! he tells me it all will go away when I finish treatment (no aprox. date)

We’re so sorry to hear about your experience, I can understand how being in treatment for two years with undesired results would be frustrating. We are here and ready to assist your doctor in making any corrections/adjustments needed to your treatment.
It is true that conventional braces are better in certain situations for certain treatment goals. It is in the hands of your doctor to diagnose, select treatment, plan treatment, and administer treatment all in the best way possible to achieve the desired result. Again, the best thing for you to do would be to express your concern to your doctor. We will do everything we can to work with your them in getting your treatment back on track.
No one can claim to be perfect in this world but what you’re describing is not the team at ClearCorrect. Not knowing who you are it’s hard to reply or help here, but this does not match any records of doctors we work with (and that’s just not how we treat people we work with).
On the other hand, if you’ve used our lab and we messed up this badly, please contact us and we’ll gladly sort it out.
