The Case for Straight Teeth with Invisalign Braces

Straight teeth are essential to a healthy smile, as well as one that is appealing. When teeth crowd your mouth, it is hard to keep them as clean as they should be. This leads to bacteria buildup, tooth decay, gum disease, and tooth loss. Ensuring proper alignment protects your teeth and gums. Ask our Invisalign dentist about straightening your teeth with clear braces.

Invisalign Dentist Treats Adults & Teens

Invisalign serves as a braces alternative for adults and teenagers. Both age groups value discretion in teeth straightening so invisible braces are the perfect option. Invisalign products consist of a series of clear plastic aligners. These aligners slip over your natural teeth for a smooth and comfortable fit. No more metal brackets or wires that irritate the inside of your mouth.

Custom Treatment Plan for Your Clear Braces

Meet with our dentist when you are considering Invisalign braces. He examines your teeth and talks with you about your lifestyle. When you both agree that this is the braces alternative for you, it is time to talk about your individual treatment plan. This involves taking photographs, X-rays, and impressions of your teeth. This information allows us to come up with custom plan to align your teeth. We even show you a 3-D image of how your teeth shift over time as they move into alignment.

Braces Alternative Offers Freedom

Invisalign enables you to have much more freedom than other types of braces. Since they are removable, you take them out to eat so you do not have to restrict your diet to foods that would not get stuck in the brackets and wires of metal braces.

Removable braces are more hygienic as you can take them out to brush and floss. Food does not get trapped within the metal parts. Plus, these comfortable braces do not trouble you while you sleep. You wear your clear braces for 20 to 22 hours each day to maximize wearing time. Every two weeks, you receive another set of aligners as your teeth shift subtly and gently into place.

Unfortunately, we cannot offer these services through Medicard insurance. Please contact us if you would like to discuss an alternative method.
