Why Choose Invisalign?
Invisalign uses a series of custom-made clear aligners to gently guide your teeth into proper alignment. There are a few reasons Invisalign might be a better option for you than traditional metal braces.
Discrete
Now you can change your smile gradually without making a loud statement to the world. Invisalign is practically invisible, so it won’t get in the way of your look and style.
Comfort
Unlike metal braces that have wires and brackets that can poke and irritate your tongue and the inside of your mouth, Invisalign smoothly moves your teeth gradually towards the look you want.
Convenient
With Invisalign, you are not forced to brush and floss around brackets and wires or only eat certain types of food. Having clear aligners doesn’t disrupt your normal life the way metal braces tend to affect daily habits.
How Do I Take Care of My Invisalign?
Since the Invisalign aligners are removable, it is simple and easy to clean them and maintain good oral hygiene. The Invisalign cleaning kit has all you need to help keep your aligners clean, clear, and free of odor. You can also brush them and rinse them in lukewarm water.
You should, of course, also keep up good oral hygiene habits to maintain healthy and strong gums. A clean and healthy mouth will also keep your aligners working and looking better.
How Do I Know if Invisalign is Right for Me?
Invisalign is a great option for teens and adults who want to straighten their teeth without the look or feel of metal braces. It’s best suited for those with mild to moderate alignment concerns and healthy gums. If you need to improve your bite or enhance your smile for cosmetic or medical reasons, Invisalign may be an excellent fit.
