Why choose Invisalign?

Invisalign is a new FDA approved system that has been developed to treat patients with orthodontic issues. Due to the fact that they are invisible and very comfortable, Invisalign aligners are seen as an excellent alternative for patients who dislike wearing traditional braces. The amazing benefit of Invisalign aligners is that they help dentists and patients straighten teeth without attracting any attention, unlike traditional braces.

Made of plastic, Invisalign aligners are known to be very comfortable to wear even though they move the teeth at a slow pace over a few weeks. Moreover, the use of plastic has made the aligners resistant to stains.

Invisalign based treatment, presently, is approved for both teens and adults. Unless there are significantly challenging teeth movements to be accomplished, Invisalign is suitable for any adult. However, if Invisalign aligners are used to treat conditions which entail considerably crooked and far spread teeth, the time taken to accomplish the end result will be very long. Invisalign can also be safely used on teens if all of their teeth have erupted, maybe with the exception of the last molar.

As a patient getting treated with the Invisalign system, you will have to wear your aligners all the time. You can remove them when you eat, drink, brush, and floss. With an allowance of about two hours for the purposes of meals and oral hygiene, typically, patients are advised by doctors to wear the aligners for about 22 hours a day.
