The Benefits of Invisalign

At Metro Smiles, we understand that you want a healthy, beautiful smile. That’s why we offer Invisalign as one of our dental solutions. Invisalign is an innovative orthodontic system that uses clear, custom-made aligners to gradually move teeth into the desired position with minimal discomfort or disruption to your life. It’s perfect for adults and teenagers who are looking for a more discreet alternative to traditional braces.

What is Invisalign?

Invisalign is a popular orthodontic treatment that uses a series of clear, removable aligners to gradually straighten teeth. Here are several benefits of Invisalign:

Aesthetics

One of the primary advantages of Invisalign is its near-invisibility. The aligners are made from clear plastic, making them difficult to detect when worn. This makes Invisalign a preferred choice for individuals who desire a more discreet orthodontic treatment, especially adults and teenagers who may feel self-conscious about wearing traditional metal braces.

Removability

Invisalign aligners are removable, allowing you to take them out during eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing. This means there are no dietary restrictions like with traditional braces, where certain foods need to be avoided to prevent damage. Additionally, oral hygiene routines can remain unchanged, making it easier to maintain oral health throughout the treatment.

Comfort

Invisalign aligners are made of smooth plastic, eliminating the use of wires or brackets that can cause discomfort and irritation to the mouth. The aligners are custom-made to fit your teeth and are designed to gradually move your teeth into their desired positions, resulting in a more comfortable orthodontic experience.

Improved Oral Health

With traditional braces, it can be challenging to clean and floss properly due to the wires and brackets. Invisalign aligners can be easily removed, allowing for regular brushing and flossing, which helps maintain optimal oral health and reduces the risk of plaque buildup, tooth decay, and gum disease during the treatment period.

Predictable Results

Invisalign treatment utilizes advanced 3D imaging technology to create a virtual representation of your teeth and plan the entire treatment process. This enables you to visualize the expected outcome and track your progress throughout the treatment. The aligners are custom-made for your teeth, ensuring a precise fit and optimal tooth movement.

Convenience and Fewer Office Visits

Invisalign generally requires fewer orthodontic visits compared to traditional braces. Instead of frequent adjustments, you will typically receive several sets of aligners at once and change them according to your orthodontist’s instructions. This means fewer interruptions to your daily routine and fewer visits to the orthodontist’s office.

Versatility

Invisalign can address a wide range of orthodontic issues, including crowding, gaps between teeth, overbites, underbites, and crossbites. While severe cases may still require traditional braces or other orthodontic treatments, Invisalign is effective for many common dental misalignments.
