Your smile can change
the way you see yourself, and if your crooked teeth have been lowering your
self-esteem, schedule an appointment with your dentist who can determine if you
are a good candidate for Invisalign.
Invisalign is an
amazing dental procedure that does not require wires and brackets, and best of
all, depending on your particular case, you could have straighter teeth in as
little as six months.
The Invisalign system
uses a series of between 11 and 31 clear plastic aligners that are worn between
20 and 22 hours each day. Every two weeks you will replace your existing Invisalign
aligners with a new set while your teeth get straighter. On average, you will
need to wear your clear plastic aligners from between six and eighteen months.
If your dentist
determines that you are a good candidate for Invisalign, x-rays and photographs
will be taken so that your new Invisalign aligners can be custom made. Once
ready, you will only need to see your dentist once every six weeks to make sure
that everything is going according to your Invisalign plan.
Invisalign clear
plastic aligners are comfortable and nearly invisible. In fact, the only people
who will know that you are wearing Invisalign will be you and your dentist.
Your Invisalign clear
plastic aligners are removed when you eat or drink and when you brush and
floss. Old school braces are notorious for tooth decay, as they cannot be
removed when brushing or flossing. This can cause tooth decay to form, as it is
impossible to brush underneath the brackets.
Invisalign is best
for teens and adults and truly is the 21st century approach to a
beautiful smile.
