What is Invisalign?
Launched in 1998, Invisalign offers a modern approach to straightening teeth. We provide a series of custom-made aligners tailored to fit your teeth and meet your specific needs. These aligners are smooth, comfortable, and almost invisible, crafted from plastic that fits snugly over your teeth.
Problems Invisalign Can Correct
Invisalign clear aligners are designed to address a variety of orthodontic issues, including:
- Crooked Teeth: Misaligned teeth can affect your bite and overall appearance.
- Gaps Between Teeth: Spaces can create aesthetic concerns and may lead to dental issues over time.
- Overbite: When the upper teeth significantly overlap the lower teeth, this can cause discomfort and wear.
- Underbite: This is when the lower teeth protrude past the upper teeth, affecting jaw alignment.
- Crossbite: This occurs when the upper and lower teeth don’t align correctly, leading to uneven wear and potential jaw issues.
- Open Bite: This condition results in a gap between the upper and lower teeth when the mouth is closed.
Benefits of Clear Aligners
Choosing Invisalign offers numerous advantages over traditional metal braces:
- Aesthetic Appeal: The aligners are virtually invisible. Clients often say other people rarely notice them.
- Comfort: Made from smooth plastic, Invisalign clear aligners are more comfortable than metal braces, reducing irritation to your gums and cheeks.
- Removability: The aligners can be removed easily for eating, having a hot drink, brushing and flossing, making it easier to maintain oral hygiene.
- Fewer Office Visits: Invisalign typically requires fewer in-person appointments, giving you greater convenience and flexibility in your schedule.
- Predictable Results: Using advanced technology, we can map out your entire treatment plan, so you know what to expect.
