Invisalign® clear braces are non-metal alternatives to traditional braces that do not have any uncomfortable brackets or wires. They are virtually invisible and do not draw attention to themselves. The only thing people will notice is your smile, and only your smile. The Invisalign® system, like traditional braces, corrects crooked, overlapping, or crowded teeth, wide spaces, over-bite, under-bite, and cross-bite.
There are a few tell-tale signs that you require orthodontic treatment. If you notice a problem with your bite, such as a gap in your teeth or crooked teeth, this is the first indication that you need orthodontic treatment. Difficulty in speaking or chewing due to the way your teeth are aligned, is also a sign that you require professional assistance with your smile. Sometimes orthodontic problems are difficult to detect; they may appear to be minor issues, but they can lead to dramatic and long-term tooth misalignment.
Braces may be required to be worn for 6 months to 2 years, depending on your specific case. Braces are a better long-term option for alignment and correction. They are a good option for people who have a difficult time moving their teeth.
In more severe cases of misaligned teeth, a patient may require extractions in addition to braces. Other teeth may need to be extracted in these cases to accommodate proper treatment.
Metal Braces are Exceedingly Affordable.
One of the things that really sells metal braces to many patients is that they are the simple and most affordable option on the market right now. This is largely due to their distinguishing characteristics, such as their more permanent nature in the mouth. Clear plastic alternatives, which most consumers consider to be the main competition, must be replaced several times to accommodate for natural shifts in tooth alignment and jaw placement.
Each new version of clear braces is more expensive. Metal braces, on the other hand, can be adjusted without being replaced, lowering overall costs and making them a far more affordable way to fix problems like teeth spacing and jaw alignment.
The choice between braces and all Invisalign varies from case to case. Braces may be preferable for adults with severe crookedness, as well as most children and teenagers. As long as the teeth aren't excessively crooked, Invisalign and other brands may be appropriate for people who desire a practically undetectable and more comfortable straightening or corrective procedure.
Aligners are designed to be worn for a minimum of 22 hours a day in order to achieve optimal results. As a general rule, you should only take out your aligners when eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing. If you find yourself needing to remove your aligners more often, you should contact your dentist or orthodontist.
