Our smiles can speak volumes about us. But sometimes, your smile may not match your true self, especially if it is misaligned. Unfortunately, some people may develop a negative self-image because they don’t feel good about their smiles. Traditional solutions such as metal braces often cause a lot of emotional and physical discomfort before fixing your smile, making these options unappealing.
This is why so many people are turning to clear aligners as an alternative to metal braces. By far, the most popular brand of invisible aligners on the market is Invisalign. When you visit Ballston Dental Care, Dr. David Matney and his team can transform your misaligned smile using Invisalign.
Invisalign aligners are made with a clear, non-toxic plastic that most people won’t notice while you wear them. There are no metal brackets and wires, only discreet progress as your clear aligners transform your smile into what it was always meant to be. Many patients say they feel much more confident at work and social events during and after their Invisalign treatment.
The aligner trays are also soft and smooth, with no sharp edges to irritate your mouth. You won’t experience sore spots, and after a little time, you’ll barely notice you’re wearing them. Invisalign uses the same gradual pressure concept used by metal braces to gradually shift your teeth into alignment. You’ll experience gentle, steady progress toward your ultimate smile.
Eating, drinking, and cleaning your teeth can be a frustrating process for anyone wearing metal braces. But, with Invisalign, you can take your aligners out anytime you need to enjoy a meal or brush and floss your teeth. You have complete freedom to pause your treatment for a few minutes as needed. This freedom is one reason why compliance is so high among clients who use Invisalign versus those using traditional metal braces. As long as you wear them for the time prescribed (usually 20-22 hours a day) and change them on schedule, you will be able to enjoy your new smile in no time!
There’s no guessing. Using 3D Technology, Dr. Matney can show you exactly how your smile will progress and look at the end of your treatment before you start. This is a powerful motivator that lets you see the reward at the end of your Invisalign journey.
Invisalign is a flexible treatment that can cover a range of misalignments. Here are a few issues it can correct:
