Esthetically speaking, the healthy and symmetrical appearance of properly aligned teeth is usually more pleasing than that of teeth that don’t line up correctly. However, that symmetry is important for a more functional reason – your jaw produces immense amounts of pressure, and being evenly spaced allows your teeth to successfully absorb that pressure. Otherwise, some teeth have to shoulder more stress than they’re meant to, which can cause increasingly worse tooth damage and exacerbate your tooth misalignment. Straightening crooked teeth is the only way to correct the situation and restore your smile’s health and appearance.
The benefits of Invisalign®, which consists of clear aligners rather than brackets and wires, mostly focus on the confidence of virtually invisible treatment and the convenience of being able to remove the aligners temporarily. For instance, if you’re worried about how braces will make your smile look, then Invisalign® alleviates that concern by remaining nearly invisible. If you’re concerned about dietary and hygiene changes required to accommodate braces, then you can benefit most from the convenience of removing your aligners before eating and brushing and flossing your teeth.
If your teeth are even just slightly crooked, then straightening them with Invisalign® aligners is a good idea for your smile’s appearance as well as your long-term oral health.
