Why Invisalign is the Top Choice for Teeth Straightening

Let’s explore some of the reasons that this treatment is quickly becoming the most popular cosmetic treatment to help address issues like misalignments, gaps and overcrowding.

What is Invisalign?

Invisalign is an orthodontic treatment that will allow you to straighten your teeth without the need for traditional fixed braces. Instead of brackets and wires, this system uses a series of clear plastic aligners to gradually move the teeth into the correct alignment.

The wearer removes the aligners to eat and drink anything other than water. They will also remove them to brush their teeth and clean their aligners. Here are some of the reasons that this is fast becoming the top choice for teeth straightening.

Caring for your teeth is easy

Since you can remove your aligners to brush your teeth and clean your aligners, caring for your teeth couldn’t be easier. You don’t have to learn a new brushing technique or navigate around delicate brackets, wires and elastics. You can simply brush your teeth as you always have, and then soak your aligners in a cleaning solution at the same time.

No foods are off limits

Another perk of Invisalign treatment is that you can still eat your favourite foods.You don’t have to avoid any food choices or restrict your diet during your treatment. The most important thing is to alway remember to remove your aligners before eating or drinking anything other than cold water. Many people find that Invisalign helps them to avoid snacking between meals, as you might not want to bother removing your aligners.

Fast treatment plan

Another perk of Invisalign is that it’s possible to enjoy a very short treatment time. This is because we can just focus on the top front 6 teeth that are visible when you smile. By only straightening a few teeth, this can drastically reduce the treatment time, making it an ideal choice for those with a deadline.

Nearly invisible treatment

If you’re self-conscious about your smile, chances are you don’t want to draw any further attention to it. By choosing Invisalign, you can enjoy a nearly invisible treatment plan. The clear plastic aligners are laser cut to fit your gum line and are very hard to detect when you are wearing them. This can help to make the treatment plan less awkward for those who hate to draw attention to their smiles.

Suitable for all ages

It’s not just children and teenagers making the most of the Invisalign treatment plan. It is also fast becoming the most popular choice with adults. Whether you had braces as a kid but stopped wearing your retainer, or you never had braces and feel like you missed out, you could benefit from Invisalign treatment.

Fewer trips to the dentist

Another perk of the Invisalign treatment plan is that you don’t have to visit the dentist as often. If you opt for fixed aligners, you would need to visit the dentist for every adjustment, and this might not be suited to your schedule. With Invisalign, you change your aligners at home, which means you only need to visit the dentist for check ups throughout the treatment.
