Why Choose Invisalign Clear Aligners?
Invisalign offers significant lifestyle and health benefits over traditional metal braces:
- Virtually Invisible: Made from patented SmartTrack® plastic, the aligners are clear and barely noticeable to friends, family, or colleagues.
- Removable Convenience: Take your aligners out to eat, drink, brush, and floss. No dietary restrictions—enjoy popcorn, apples, and candy without worry!
- Comfortable Fit: Smooth, custom-contoured plastic edges won’t scrape or irritate your cheeks and gums like metal brackets or wires.
- Fewer Office Visits: Progress checks are quick and scheduled every 6 to 8 weeks, making Invisalign ideal for busy working professionals and students.
- Better Oral Hygiene: Because you remove the aligners to brush and floss normally, maintaining clean teeth and healthy gums is easier during treatment.
What Issues Can Invisalign Correct?
Invisalign effectively treats a wide range of mild to complex dental alignment concerns, including:
- Crowded Teeth: Teeth that overlap or lack adequate space in the jaw.
- Gaps & Spacing: Unwanted spaces between teeth.
- Overbite: Upper front teeth overlap significantly over lower teeth.
- Underbite: Lower teeth sit in front of upper teeth when closing the mouth.
- Crossbite: Some upper teeth sit inside lower teeth rather than outside.
