Invisalign Teeth Straightening

For years, metal braces and wires were the only way for adults and children to achieve a beautiful smile. With revolutionary advances in 3-D imaging technology, dentists create a series of customized plastic aligners. Computer scanners and virtual reality simulation help design clear overlay aligners. Each one is made to move your teeth ½ millimeter closer to that perfect smile. A series of aligners is worn with the Invisalign system for two weeks, 24 hours a day. More than 250,000 people have improved their smile with Invisalign.

Invisalign patients are able to keep an active lifestyle during treatment. There are no metal bands or wires to bother your mouth. Because the aligners are removable, you can just take them out for special events or if you're going to eat a messy snack.

Whether your smile needs minor improvements or more extensive adjustments, Invisalign can help. It can treat overly crowded or widely spaced teeth and more complex dental issues like overbites, underbites, and crossbites. Whatever your dental dilemma, Invisalign can help.

Invisalign uses a series of clear removable aligners that straighten your teeth with quick noticeable results. Orthodontic treatment involves changing the aligners approximately every two weeks, moving your teeth into straighter position little by little until you have an eye-catching smile. Also, you can remove the aligners while you eat and brush your teeth, unlike traditional braces.

Besides vanity and wanting a treatment course without metal and wires, people choose Invisalign for other reasons as well. If your teeth are too crowded or have gaps between them, this creates an unhealthy dental state. Swollen gums, redness and pocketing and other signs of periodontal disease may soon reveal themselves. As well as invisibly straightening your teeth, it can also improve the overall health of your mouth. Properly aligned teeth can help gums fits tighter around each tooth, which leads to better dental health. With Invisalign, you can brush and floss normally which helps prevent tooth decay and periodontal disease. There are no metal bands or wires to trap food and plaque. Maintaining a good oral hygiene program will also cut down on plaque buildup, tooth decay and periodontal disease.

If you have speech difficulties or chewing problems caused by poorly positioned teeth or jaws, Invisalign can help correct your bite and strengthen your teeth. It is comfortable, convenient and removable! Contact your dentist or orthodontist for more information.
