Invisalign Advantages
Aligners like Invisalign are discreet because the aligners are made of a clear plastic. Since Invisalign looks better than braces, many adults and teens choose Invisalign. Acquaintances won’t notice you’re having orthodontic treatment. And, you won’t have people asking about your braces.
You can eat what you like – for best results, you should wear the aligners 22 hours a day, removing the aligners for eating. So, you can continue to enjoy the foods you always have.
Aligner treatment is more hygienic as they are easier to keep clean than braces. You can remove the aligners to brush your teeth and clean the aligners and pop them back in your mouth. Aligner treatment has a lower impact on your oral health than metal braces, clear braces or lingual braces.
Aligners are more convenient too. You change your aligners every one to two weeks. And, at Fine Orthodontics, we can review your progress via an app on your Smartphone. That means you don’t need to visit as often for adjustments.
Comfort – there may be a certain amount of discomfort with tooth movement with braces. The smooth plastic surface of aligners makes them more comfortable to wear. Unlike braces, aligners generally do not cause cuts on the inside of the mouth, cheeks or tongue.
