Improving Your Smile With Invisalign

Invisalign has become a popular way to fix the teeth.  It is a great option for those who would prefer to avoid braces.  How does Invisalign work?  Let’s take a look at how this popular procedure is repairing and straightening teeth every day.

 

The Basics of Invisalign

 

When you choose to wear braces, you have to contend with those metal wires that force your teeth and jaw to align correctly.  With the use of Invisalign, there won’t be any annoying wiring on your teeth.  It also won’t give you that feeling of your teeth being forced together.  

 

Invisalign is made of a flexible material that is crafted to fit uniquely into your mouth.  It is used to slowly push the teeth in place, allowing time to bring your teeth to their new position.

 

Benefits of Invisalign

 

1. There is significantly less pain than with braces.  Unlike when braces are installed, your teeth shouldn’t experience sensitivity.  You should remain comfortable throughout your Invisalign usage.

 

2. Invisalign cannot be noticed by others.  It is customized to fit your teeth and is made of clear materials instead of wires.  No one should ever be able to tell that you are wearing any dental appliance.

 

3. There are no dietary restrictions.  When you wear braces, there are many foods you should avoid.  This simply isn’t true with Invisalign.  Simply remove the retainer and eat as normal.

 

It is clear to see how many more benefits there are to using Invisalign versus braces.  Between the comfort, discreet look and the ability to eat any food, it is a no-brainer. If you have any questions, or think Invisalign sounds like a good fit for you, call our office to schedule a consultation with Dr. Antenucci, your 11706 dentist.
