Most people today have heard about Invisalign®–this new alternative to traditional metal braces has been getting more and more popular in the last several years, and it’s easy to understand why. Invisalign® is nearly invisible; these clear retainers are removable so you can eat without restrictions and clean your teeth thoroughly. No wires are cutting up your mouth and making you feel uncomfortable. This also means you won’t have to come in for visits to adjust the braces as often. These clear aligners are custom-created for each patient. It starts with a mold of where your teeth are when you first come in, then we digitally track the process to the end, where your teeth are straight. Next, the process is broken down into steps, and each step has a slightly different aligner bringing you closer and closer to your goal. You’ll change your aligners out every few weeks until you reach the end.
Invisalign® is a terrific solution for a lot of people who long for a more confident smile. For some people, however, Invisalign® may not be the right option for their situation. So, it’s important to come in for a consultation first to find out more about your options for your unique situation. To learn more, contact our office to schedule your appointment today.
