If you are looking for a way to straighten your teeth discreetly, Invisalign® clear aligners are one of the best ways to go! There are a variety of benefits you can enjoy while effectively aligning your teeth for the straightened smile you have been wishing for!
5 Benefits of Invisalign Over Braces
1 – Invisalign clear aligners are more comfortable to wear while gradually shifting crooked teeth into their desired position. You might feel a tugging pressure along your gum line when you first wear your aligners and after changing them out for the next set in the series, but otherwise they are comfortable to wear.
2 – Invisalign treatment is customized according to your unique dental condition. The aligner trays are customized to shift your teeth efficiently, not just for your first set, but for each consecutive set until your last one has finally completed its desired position.
3 – Most people rave about the nearly transparent aligners over braces hardware. If you are self-conscious about wearing visible orthodontic devices, Invisalign clear aligners can keep you smiling!
4 – With Invisalign, it is easy to keep your teeth and gums healthy. Braces components require meticulous cleaning of the areas around them. Since you remove your aligners to brush and floss, you simply practice your normal oral hygiene routine to keep your smile healthy and plaque-free.
5 – Aligners are easy to take out and clean. Be mindful of wearing them 20-22 hours a day to stay on track with your protected treatment goal. You can take them out, clean them thoroughly along with your teeth, and then pop the clean aligners back on.
How To Know if Invisalign Is Right for Your Smile
