Invisalign - (Don't) See What You've Been Missing!

Ask anyone who underwent orthodontic treatment with traditional metal braces as an adolescent about that period of their lives, and their recollections aren’t likely to be fond. There’s no question that metal braces are remarkably effective and reliable; however, they can also be inconvenient and uncomfortable, not to mention conspicuous. As a result, many people who could benefit from orthodontic treatment have avoided getting the dental work they need.

For these people, Invisalign® invisible braces offer an alternative to wires and brackets. Invisalign® is cosmetic dentistry’s solution to misaligned teeth and a malformed bite.

The advantages of Invisalign® have made them the treatment of choice for thousands of adults and adolescents, alike. For beginners, the plastic aligners can be removed for up to two hours a day without affecting treatment, meaning that patients can eat whatever they like. More importantly, patients can tend to their oral hygiene more easily than wearers of traditional braces, removing the aligners for brushing, flossing, and professional cleanings with ease.

Of course, the clearest advantage of Invisalign® is nearly impossible to see. The plastic aligners are virtually undetectable, meaning that patients can speak, laugh, and smile without drawing attention to their orthodontic work. And because treatment with Invisalign® is completed in roughly the same amount of time as treatment with metal braces, patients are not required to make any sacrifices to their oral health.
