One of the biggest hang ups that older teen and adult patients have about traditional metal braces is the way they might make their smiles look. While not unattractive, metal brackets and wires can significantly distract from the healthy, natural appearance of your smile. Instead of conspicuous braces, Invisalign® straightens teeth by using custom-designed aligners that strategically guide teeth toward straighter positions.
Once you’ve successfully straightened your teeth, keeping them clean every day becomes much easier. However, during your orthodontic treatment, it can be more difficult having to work around brackets and wires to remove plaque and food debris. Instead working around Invisalign® aligners, you can remove them before brushing and flossing, allowing you to keep up with good hygiene every day without having to go through extraordinary measures.
By making orthodontic treatment more discreet and convenient, Invisalign® encourages more patients to straighten their crooked teeth than ever before. This means more patients can avoid oral health complications like imbalanced bite function, damaged TMJ joints, and much more.
Invisalign® offers a wide range of benefits, but the greatest ones are the improvements to your smile and oral health that come with straighter teeth.
