If braces sound like a hassle and you want to avoid walking around with an obvious set of tooth work, our office recommends Invisalign. Invisalign works similarly to braces in that they are worn over time to gradually move your teeth into proper position. However, there are several major differences between braces and Invisalign.
For one, Invisalign is clear and virtually invisible when worn. This is great for adults or anyone who prefers to keep the natural look of their teeth during the orthodontic period.
Beyond that, Invisalign is unique in that they are removable. Invisalign is a system that uses a series of trays to alter the position of your teeth. Unlike braces, these trays do not need to be worn constantly. When you eat, drink, or brush your teeth, you can remove your Invisalign tray with ease. By utilizing 3-D imaging technology, the aligners are custom-fitted to your teeth, providing a more comfortable experience than traditional braces.
Invisalign treats the same problems that traditional orthodontic braces are designed to solve, such as:
- overly crowded teeth
- widely spaced teeth
- crossbite
- overbite
- underbite
Like braces, Invisalign is a process that takes time to work. This length of time varies by case and can only be determined by your orthodontist, but treatments typically require a year to complete. Occassional visits to the dentist are needed to ensure the treatment is progressing well and to switch trays when it's time for the teeth to shift further.
