Everybody desires a great smile, but many people need help getting there. Problems such as crooked, misaligned, and crowded teeth often affect the appearance of your smile. This situation calls for proper orthodontic treatment. Invisalign is one of the orthodontic procedures carried out at our clinic.
What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is a clear aligner, the use of which has become widespread throughout all dental clinics. It is made using a flexible thermoplastic material that makes your treatment discreet. When compared to the traditional metal wire braces, Invisalign is much more comfortable and less noticeable.
What is the Procedure?
When you visit our dental practice for the procedure, our dentist will create a 3D image of your mouth and jaw. This image will be used to create your treatment plan.
We will create a series of customized plastic aligners that will apply pressure to your teeth to shift them to their suitable positions. We will also impart instructions wherein you will have to switch out one set of Invisalign with the other every one or two weeks. Wear them 20-22 hours a day.
What are the Benefits of Invisalign?
- The best benefit of wearing Invisalign is the aesthetic factor. Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign is less noticeable. You can wear them in public without worrying about the appearance of your smile.
- Invisalign is easy to remove as well. You can remove them while cleaning and eating your food.
