Invisalign: A Clear Way to Shape Up Your Smile

While everyone deserves to have a smile that they are happy to show off, the idea of metal braces with pesky wires and scratchy brackets are less than appealing for many. Thus, the popularity of Invisalign continues to soar, as it’s a clear way to shape up your smile.

Through a series of nearly invisible aligner trays, Invisalign consists of a proprietary multilayer SmartTrack material that controls movements, making treatment more predictable. Because trays are removable, individuals can enjoy the foods and activities of their choice with freedom. In turn, patients brush and floss normally, and do not experience the difficulties associated with maintaining oral care with traditional braces. In a similar way, individuals do not have to worry about injuries to the soft tissues in their mouth due to protruding wires or broken brackets. It’s easy to see—for teens and adults alike, Invisalign has become a trusted system for achieving the best smile.

Even so, the question posed by many is, “Can Invisalign work for me?”

Without question, Invisalign proves effective in shaping smiles. In the right hands, it can be used to address simple to complex cases, including gapped teeth, overbite, underbite, open bite, crowding, and crossbite. While some may assume that Invisalign is a standard system for repositioning teeth, this is not true. Invisalign aligners are custom-made to fit precisely over teeth, and they are specifically engineered to apply the amount of force in the right place at the right time. As teeth respond to treatment, a new set of aligners are provided, according to the patient’s treatment plan. With each treatment phase, patients are able to see and monitor their progress as their new smile unfolds right before their eyes.
