Invisalign Straightens Teeth Subtly and Comfortably

Are you embarrassed by your poorly aligned teeth? In the past, your only option would have been to spend months or years wearing ugly, uncomfortable metal braces 24 hours a day. Invisalign offers an alternative solution for people who do not want orthodontic treatment to interfere with their daily life.

The Invisalign process uses clear plastic retainers to gently reposition teeth. These retainers are almost invisible and can be removed for eating and drinking, so they won't interfere with your usual activities.

Dangers of Orthodontic Conditions

Invisalign can treat a range of orthodontic problems, including overbite, crossbite and underbite. Left untreated, these conditions can cause jaw pain due to unbalanced forces being placed on the jaw. They can also lead to increased tooth wear.

Invisalign can resolve issues with tooth spacing, addressing overcrowding or closing up gaps between teeth. As well as denting your confidence, gaps in your smile can also lead to gum disease because the exposed gums are not protected. The opposite problem of overcrowded teeth can also cause dental health problems, as it can be very difficult to clean between the teeth, so plaque can build up.

How Does Invisalign Work?

Invisalign retainers are custom-made to fit the shape of your teeth. Our dentists will use X-rays to create a 3D image of your teeth, which will then be used to design a series of retainers that will gradually move your teeth into their new positions.

You will switch to a new retainer approximately once every two weeks, so that a consistent pressure can be applied to move your teeth without causing discomfort. You would also have regular check-ups with your dentist to ensure that the treatment is going well.

Although you can remove the retainers for eating and drinking, you should wear them at all other times, including overnight, so that they can act on your teeth. If used as directed, Invisalign retainers typically transform smiles in about a year, although the exact duration depends on how severe your orthodontic problems are to begin with. The length of Invisalign treatment is usually similar to that of traditional wire braces, but it can work faster in some cases.

There are two main benefits of Invisalign compared to wire braces. Firstly, the treatment is much more comfortable, as there is no chance of wires poking into your cheeks or gums. Secondly, the near-invisible aligners are much less noticeable than wire braces, which means no worries about judgment from colleagues or friends.
