Waking up with an adorable smile brightens your mood as well as that of those around you. Furthermore, few people are naturally born with straight teeth giving them a perfect smile. With time, this has gotten a solution, and you can correct your smile and positively impact your smile's aesthetic nature, self-esteem and confidence. Are you looking to perfect your smile? A little Invisalign is all you need for a straight great grin.
How Invisalign Works
Invisalign is a clear plastic aligners system to move your tooth. You first book an appointment with your dentist, who will take a digital impression of your teeth to be used to make custom-made Invisalign. The digital impressions will be taken a couple of times during your spaced visits.
After a couple of weeks, your aligners will be ready for you to wear. In order for them to apply pressure in the right places, temporary tooth-colored attachments are placed on your teeth to act as an anchor. You will have to wear your custom-made trays for at least 20 hours a day, which will be changed continuously until desired results are achieved.
Your dentist will be monitoring and checking in on your progress.
Why Invisalign
Invisalign has been proven to be an option for people and is as effective as traditional braces and treats the most common orthodontic problems. This includes:
· Bite alignment
· Crowded teeth
· Gaps
· Overlapping teeth
Invisalign Benefits
Invisalign offers you flexibility as they give you the freedom to take them off before eating or for a special occasion like interviews or meetings. This also makes flossing and brushing your teeth easy compared to braces and brackets.
Invisalign, being made of plastic, is very comfortable and does not irritate your mouth.
Invisalign takes a shorter period of time to align your teeth compared to traditional metal braces. They take at most twelve months but can take longer depending on the alignment issue. To help speed up the process, constantly attend your checkups and follow the instructions provided. Invisalign should be cleaned and rinsed at least twice or once a day. This is good for your oral hygiene, and you do not have to keep going for painful adjustment appointments.
Invisalign might also benefit people who have misaligned jaws that make them unable to chew comfortably.
Facts About Invisalign
With Invisalign being biocompatible plastics, they slide easily over soft tissues and do not cause irritation. However, expect some soreness when you start wearing the new set of aligners.
If you do not wear your Invisalign enough in a day, you might not achieve the results you want, and your teeth might start to move out of place again. Their removability being their biggest benefit means a great responsibility is placed on you. You need to wear them at least twenty hours a day.
Invisalign can also be used by people who have had metal braces and brackets before.
