Having a healthy, beautiful smile is an important part of your appearance. If you have been embarrassed because your teeth have gaps or some teeth are crooked, it is time to seek a change. Pure Dental Health near Brookhaven offers Invisalign, the ‘invisible’ way to straighten your teeth without metal braces. You can achieve a stunning new smile without wearing metal on your teeth with these comfortable, convenient clear aligners.
- What are the drawbacks of wearing braces?
- For many years, braces were the only options when it came to straightening your teeth. Metal brackets, wires and bands encapsulated the teeth, needing constant adjustment and repairs for two to three years while the teeth were slowly adjusted. While braces are still used and may offer benefits for some people, they have many drawbacks. They are uncomfortable, unappealing and make it difficult to enjoy certain foods. It is even hard to clean your teeth thoroughly when wearing them. But with Invisalign, these drawbacks are not an issue.
- Invisalign versus braces. What’s the difference?
- Invisalign is a completely new approach to orthodontics. Instead of attaching hardware to your teeth, plastic, clear aligners are made to fit over your teeth. The overall effect is the same; the plastic aligners apply gentle pressure to shift your teeth into place, just like braces. Every few weeks, you use a new set of aligners that are made specifically for your teeth to move them toward the ultimate goal. In about the same time as braces, you can achieve a straight, lovely smile, but without the discomfort, inconvenience or embarrassment of wearing braces.
- Is Invisalign the best option for you?
- Invisalign is a great option for almost anyone looking to improve the alignment of their smile. If you have teeth that are turned or crooked, Invisalign can fix those issues. Gaps can be closed and your teeth can be straight, even and perfectly put into place. The transformation is incredible, all completed without brackets, wires or bands that are unattractive and uncomfortable.
- What are the benefits of Invisalign?
- The benefits of Invisalign are many, especially for adults. Most people in their adult years do not want to wear braces on their teeth in front of co-workers and their social group. Invisalign clear aligners are almost invisible, allowing you to feel confident when you are wearing them while you talk, smile and eat like usual. Food is another benefit; you can take off your aligners to enjoy a sticky caramel roll, crunchy nuts or corn on the cob, all of which are on the banned list for braces. Just brush your teeth when you are done eating and put your aligners back in place. As long as you keep your aligners on 20-22 hours a day, you will still achieve the results you desire.
