Straight teeth-The no anxiety way
A straight smile is about more than just looks: Proper teeth alignment supports effective oral hygiene that promotes better dental and overall health.
Invisalign offers several advantages over traditional braces, making it a popular choice for straightening teeth. Invisalign is an orthodontic treatment that uses clear, removable aligners to gradually straighten teeth. It is an alternative to traditional metal braces. A series of custom-made aligners are created based on impressions of the patient's teeth. The aligners are worn for a specified period of time, typically 22 hours per day. As the patient wears each aligner, the teeth are gradually moved into the desired position The aligners are replaced with a new set every few weeks. The treatment typically lasts for 9 to 18 months, but the duration may vary depending on the complexity of the case.
Invisalign can relieve pressure on the TMJ by moving teeth into their correct position. Invisalign can help improve bite alignment, which can reduce strain on the jaw joint. Invisalign aligners can protect teeth from grinding and clenching.
Invisalign aligners are clear and virtually invisible, making them a discreet option for orthodontic treatment. Unlike metal braces, Invisalign aligners can be removed for eating, brushing, and flossing. This allows for better oral hygiene and easier access to teeth for cleaning.
Invisalign treatment typically takes less time than traditional braces with no risk of white spots. Invisalign requires fewer office visits than traditional braces, as adjustments can often be made through digital scans and online check-ins.
