In our previous blog, we looked at how traditional braces can take on more severe cases of misalignment. But we also have a more cosmetic approach, one that doesn’t require metal brackets or wires at all. In today’s blog, your Dental Associates of Corona in CA talk about the Invisalign® system.
The Benefits of Taking on Your Misalignment
When you undergo treatment to address your crooked, crowded, and overlapping teeth, this can offer a more attractive appearance and help you feel more confident in your smile. But you will also have a much easier time brushing and flossing your teeth too, which lowers your risk of tooth decay and gum disease. Restoring proper balance and alignment to your smile also limits the risk of issues like TMJ disorder and bruxism (teeth grinding). Treatment can help your oral health and bite function in addition to your overall appearance! For teens and adults who worry about the impact of braces on their appearance, we can offer an alternative with Invisalign®.
Creating Custom Plastic Aligners
Invisalign® doesn’t use wires and brackets to help shift your teeth. Instead, a series of plastic aligners made from a clear and BPA-free plastic will be used. To get started, our team will examine the smile to assess the cause and severity of your misalignment. From there, we can choose treatment options that will best correct your smile. If we go with Invisalign®, then we will take detailed digital images and measurements of your smile and use them in a lab setting to design and craft your custom aligners. When these are ready, you can start your journey to an even smile.
The Invisalign® Treatment Process
With Invisalign®, you will wear a set of your aligners for about 20 to 22 hours a day on average over a period of about two weeks. You then begin wearing the next set for the same amount of time. For most patients, optimal results are possible in as little as one year. Your aligners are removable, which means no sies with eating and an easier time brushing and flossing too! If you have any questions about our clear aligners, then contact our team today to learn more.
