A perfectly aligned set of teeth is difficult and often painful to achieve. It takes time, money, and a lot of effort to get those pearly whites corrected so one can flash that million-dollar smile. Thanks to cosmetic dentistry, more people now have access to the latest treatments in orthodontics. One of the trends to emerge in recent years is an alternative to the traditional metal dental braces in correcting misaligned teeth.
Invisalign Invisible Braces is a set of clear teeth aligners that have become a popular choice over metal braces. The custom-made transparent teeth aligners are worn like a mouthpiece to gently move the teeth to their proper places. To identify the teeth’s correct alignment, a dentist or orthodontist takes an x-ray of the patient’s teeth. These impressions, together with the orthodontist’s teeth alignment plan or prescription, are processed using special software to create the mold for the series of invisible braces for each stage of the treatment. The length of treatment varies from patient to patient. The entire teeth alignment process may take from a minimum of five months to about a year depending on the complexity of the treatment. Among the cases that can be treated using Invisalign Invisible Braces include spaced teeth, overly crowded teeth, crossbite, overbite, and underbite. If not properly treated, these cases can cause extreme pain and serious dental problems.
This innovation in cosmetic dentistry has several advantages over the traditional metal braces. Invisalign Invisible Braces are made from transparent resin and are hardly noticeable once worn. Adults can specially benefit from this feature, as metal braces are commonly associated with children and adolescents. It is also not as painful since it uses less force compared to its metal counterpart. Patients only need to update their treatment every two weeks to put on a new set of invisible braces. This spares them the pain that goes with each time metal braces need to be tightened. It is also by far the most comfortable way to align teeth. Thanks to its removable nature, patients can eat comfortably and enjoy their favorite foods without any encumbrances.
Wearing braces has never looked this good with Invisalign Invisible Braces. It effectively corrects the teeth without the hassles, not to mention the awkwardness, of wearing metal braces. More people can be on their way to flashing a perfect smile with a little help from this innovative approach in cosmetic dentistry.
