We live in a society that values a beautiful smile. Part of that involves having teeth that are straight and not misaligned. Traditional braces are effective, but many people want to avoid the hassle of bulky and uncomfortable brackets and wires. If this is you, Dr. David Kagan has the solution you’ve been looking for: Invisalign clear aligners.
Invisalign is a cutting-edge orthodontic solution that gives patients a subtle teeth-straighting solution. Instead of metal braces, the Invisalign system uses a series of clear aligners made with BPA-free thermoplastic material. These aligners are custom-made for every individual and are changed out every couple of weeks. Best of all, these aligners are nearly transparent, so they give you a discreet alternative.
Invisalign clear aligners are worn over the teeth. They slowly but consistently move your teeth to a straighter position as time passes. They work similarly to traditional braces but without the downside of wearing them.
Both metal braces and Invisalign aligners effectively make teeth straighter, but clear aligners offer several benefits.
Arguably, the biggest advantage of Invisalign aligners is that they’re removable. Braces are fixed to your teeth, but clear aligners can be removed to eat, drink, compete in sports, or attend social events. You can live the life you want if you wear your aligners for at least 20-22 hours daily.
When you go with traditional braces, there are many foods you can’t enjoy. For example, most hard foods can damage the brackets and wires. Also, sticky or chewy foods can do the same thing. With Invisalign, you remove your aligners to eat. This means you can enjoy all of your favorite foods. Another issue with braces is that you may have to avoid sugary drinks because it’s hard to clean the sugar from around the brackets. Invisalign also eliminates this concern.
With traditional braces, you must often go to the dentist’s office for adjustments and tightening or repairs. When straightening your teeth with Invisalign, you visit the orthodontist every few weeks to pick up your new aligners. This is super convenient for people with busy schedules.
Getting straighter teeth with traditional braces is about 18 to 24 months. Invisalign isn’t an overnight treatment. However, most people finish the Invisalign process in as little as six to 12 months. An accelerated timeline means you can get your gorgeous smile quickly.
