Not everyone is born with great-looking teeth. Thanks to modern dentistry, within a short period of time you can realign your teeth and start smiling with confidence. If you need teeth realignment, here’s what you should know about Invisalign:
What is Invisalign?
Invisalign braces are the modern alternative to traditional metal braces. Your dentist will make a custom mould that will snap into place over your teeth. These discreet and removable aligners work to straighten your teeth over time, so you can have the beautiful smile you’ve always wanted. Visit your dentist every two weeks for a new set of aligners. The new set allows for adjustments without the pain and hassle of having to manually tighten metal braces.
Invisible
As the name suggests, Invisalign braces are invisible. If you’re self-conscious about your smile already, adding a mouthful of metal and wires probably doesn’t help. From a first date to a new job interview, Invisalign will help you smile your best smile. Your friends and coworkers won’t even notice that you have Invisalign braces, but they’ll certainly notice your beautiful new smile once the process is done! Traditional braces, on the other hand, are definitely noticeable.
Comfortable
Invisalign braces are much more comfortable than traditional metal braces. With metal braces, wire ends can poke into your tongue and cheeks, causing irritation and pain. Invisible braces are made of clear and smooth plastic that is custom-moulded to your teeth. Whenever you are going through the process of straightening your teeth, some mild discomfort is inevitable. While traditional and invisible braces both involve this mild discomfort, you have no irritation from poking wires when you choose Invisalign.
Removable
Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign braces are easily removable. You can take off your invisible braces with ease for cleaning or dental visits. With traditional braces, you are not supposed to eat foods like gum, popcorn, nuts, sticky candy, and caramel. You also have to be careful when eating crunchy vegetables, wings, and ribs. With Invisalign, you get the best of both worlds: you can enjoy all of your favourite foods, but you also get the enjoyment of having a straight smile.
Speak with your dentist to day to find out if invisible braces are right for you. They are the invisible, comfortable, and removable solution. Are you ready to transform your smile?
