Invisalign Fixes Smiles The Easy Way
Here’s what you need to know: this system does not involve the sort of braces that horrified you as a child. We all had friends who were subjected to those antiquated measures. But times have changed in the world of orthodontics.
To be sure, Invisalign takes a different approach to straightening out the problems with your smile. Where conventional braces work gradually over 2-3 years through the force of metal brackets and wires, Invisalign works quickly (in about 12 months for most patients) by employing a series of clear, plastic aligners.
Invisalign aligners are designed from detailed images of your mouth and our high-tech projections for each segment of realignment. They are clear and nearly invisible which means that no one is going to know about the treatment in progress. That means no unwanted attention, nicknames, and so forth.
Beyond that, there also won’t be any mouth sores or ongoing discomfort from your gear. On the contrary, Invisalign aligners fit snugly and comfortably over your teeth. Truth be told, they feel more like whitening trays or a mouthguard than braces.
This program saves you time along the way, too. That’s because Invisalign aligners won’t require monthly visits to the orthodontist for adjustments. With this system you will just switch them out on your own at home (every two weeks) to keep the momentum going.
And get this: the aligners are actually removable!
Full disclosure: they will have to remain in place for 20 + hours each day. Still, the fact of the matter is that they aren’t permanently installed in your mouth like classic braces.
As such, you won’t have to be concerned about what you eat or how much of your dinner will get trapped in your tricky orthodontic gear. There won’t be any special tools required for cleaning, either. You will just take your aligners out and rinse them under lukewarm water while continuing to brush and floss as usual.
When your treatment is over in about a year, you will be amazed by the resulting smile you will have to share with the world!
