When it comes to straighter smiles, our patients have lots of questions about the straightening process, different orthodontic treatment options, and what to expect. If you have been looking into Invisalign treatment, chances are good that you are curious about when we suggest Invisalign (and associated concerns). Do yourself a favor and sit back, relax, and allow us to offer you some helpful details that will give you a better understanding of when clear aligner trays become a wonderful choice.

We Suggest Invisalign For Bruxism

We tend to suggest Invisalign treatment for patients when we discover they are suffering from bruxism and misalignment. Why? Well, misaligned teeth commonly lead to bruxing as the result of a constant need to shift teeth into alternative positions for effective resting, eating, and speaking. Aligning your smile will contribute to treating your chronic grinding and clenching.

We Recommend It When You Dislike Your Grin

We often suggest Invisalign treatment when you don’t like the way your smile looks but you are opposed to receiving metal braces. This orthodontic option is well-suited to people who are worried about the way their orthodontic treatment may impact their appearance and, subsequently, the way they are perceived at school or in the workplace.

When A Patient Is A Teen Or Adult

We generally suggest Invisalign treatment when a patient’s needs line up with Invisalign and that patient is a teenager or adult. There is not maximum age limit. However, we will make case-by-case decisions regarding teens. For those whose teeth are still developing, we often suggest traditional braces as a more appropriate choice. Schedule a consultation, so we can provide you with a definitive decision.
