Invisalign is a brand of clear aligners used for orthodontic treatment to straighten and align teeth. It’s an alternative to traditional metal braces. clear  aligners are made of transparent, medical-grade plastic and are custom-fitted to a patient’s teeth. They work by gradually shifting the teeth into the desired position through a series of different aligners, each worn for about one to two weeks. this type of aligners are also known for its nearly invisible appearance, comfort, and the ability to be removed for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing. It’s commonly used to treat mild to moderate dental misalignments and is popular among adults and older teenagers seeking a more discreet orthodontic solution.

Also known as clear aligners, Invisalign is true to its name. They are transparent, removable, lightweight and convenient to place custom-made trays that are made separately for upper and lower jaws to move teeth to the desired position.

Invisalign is typically suitable for adults and older teenagers with mild to moderate teeth misalignment issues like crowding or spacing. Good oral health, commitment to wearing the aligners as directed, and realistic expectations are important. A consultation with your dentist is necessary to determine if Invisalign is the right option for an individual’s specific needs.

  1. Aesthetic Appeal:  this type of aligners are nearly invisible, making them a more discreet option compared to traditional braces.
  2. Removable: Aligners can be taken out for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing, allowing for better oral hygiene and dietary freedom.
  3. Comfort: clear aligners are generally considered more comfortable than metal braces as they lack wires and brackets.
  4. Predictable Results: this type of treatment often involves computer-generated 3D models, offering a clear treatment plan and predictable outcomes.
  5. Fewer Dental Appointments: Typically, Invisalign requires fewer in-office visits compared to traditional braces.

Cons:

  1. Compliance: Success with Invisalign depends on wearing aligners for 20-22 hours a day, which can be challenging for some people.
  2. Limited for Severe Cases: Invisalign may not be suitable for complex orthodontic problems or severe misalignment issues.
  3. Discomfort: Some patients experience temporary discomfort or speech difficulties when adjusting to new aligners.
  4. Cost: Invisalign treatment can be more expensive than traditional braces, and it may not be covered by insurance to the same extent.
  5. Attachments: In some cases, small tooth-colored attachments are required for Invisalign, which may be noticeable.
  6. Eating Restrictions: While aligners are removable, there are restrictions on eating and drinking anything except water while wearing them.

Ultimately, the decision between Invisalign and traditional braces depends on individual orthodontic needs, lifestyle, and personal preferences. Consulting with an orthodontist is the best way to determine the most suitable treatment option.

What should you expect from our Invisalign treatments?

A comprehensive oral examination to determine if you are an ideal candidate for clear aligners is necessary. X-rays and impressions will be taken to fabricate the transparent trays that will slowly but steadily move your teeth into the ideal desired position. You will have to wear the trays for 22 hours a day for approximately 2 weeks after which, a new set of trays will be issued. You may experience discomfort for the initial few days of changing the tray but that is just temporary and will resolve on its own and if it doesn’t, it’s time to see your dentist.
