5 reasons to choose Invisalign®
The advantages over other braces
Invisalign® braces are the choice for millions of people around the world because the advantages they offer over traditional teeth straightening treatments are undeniable.
Comfortable, transparent and removable, the Invisalign® aligner system offers confidence, self-esteem and helps transform your smile without disrupting your lifestyle.
The result of innovative technology, the Invisalign® system is a series of transparent aligners (guards) that can be removed by the patient under the supervision of the orthodontist. Invisalign treatment does not require the use of brackets or wires to align teeth.
What is Invisalign®?
Invisalign® is an orthodontic tooth-alignment treatment customized to the patient's needs.
The orthodontic diagnosis is 100% digitalized, based on the patient's dental impression and digital intraoral photographs and radiographs. All this information is sent to the USA, to the only laboratory specializing in the Invisalign® technique.
The American specialists then use high-performance 3D software to create a customized set of transparent, soft, custom-made mouth guards that will be applied directly to the teeth.
The patient is given several sets of transparent, almost invisible, soft mouth guards that will be switched as the treatment progresses, at a time interval determined by the doctor and based on the dental pathology to be treated. Each mouth guard takes over the position of the teeth that was prepared by the previous guard, thus forcing the teeth into the desired position at the end of the treatment period.
5 reasons to choose Invisalign®
It is almost invisible
This is one of the greatest advantages of Invisalign® braces. Many people may be reluctant to wear traditional braces because of the impact on their self-image, but also because of the difficulty in ensuring proper oral hygiene.
Invisalign® aligners are made of a durable, transparent thermoplastic material and are almost invisible, so you can enjoy a lifestyle without restrictions and discomfort. Invisalign® is the choice of millions of people who want to correct their dental problems and have a great smile.
Easily removable braces
Traditional braces with brackets have to be worn permanently throughout the treatment period, which can be a year and a half or even 2 years.
Fortunately, with Invisalign®, there is no need to wear the braces 24 hours a day for 7 days. The guards can be removed so that you can eat or brush your teeth.
The orthodontist's recommendation is that Invisalign® should be worn between 20 and 22 hours every day. This gives Invisalign® wearers the ability to eat whatever they want without restriction, as there is no risk of the brackets or wires breaking.
In addition, because there are no brackets and wires, the patient will spend less time in the orthodontist's office for adjustments and daily brushing, and oral care becomes much easier.
Protects teeth and gums
Invisalign® aligners are made of a material that provides increased patient comfort. The ability to remove the mouth guards for thorough oral hygiene helps prevent cavities, gum infections or tooth demineralization.
The use of Invisalign® braces in no way endangers your teeth or oral cavity!
Duration of treatment is much reduced
The duration of treatment is determined according to the needs of each individual patient, but most of the time Invisalign® treatment is very short when it comes to this type of aligners.
So, in general, Invisalign® treatment can last between 9 and 18 months, but the results are visible after only six months.
Improves self-confidence
Traditional braces may be a challenge for the self-confidence of children and teenagers. Invisalign® users have no such fears.
Orthodontists have observed that Invisalign® patients experience an increase in self-confidence with each visit to the dental office. The reason is simple: each patient can see in real time how their smile improves from one day to the next.
What dental conditions can be treated with Invisalign®?
It is the orthodontist who will determine whether the Invisalign® system is right for a patient, depending on their clinical situation.
Invisalign® treats a range of tooth alignment problems, from minor misalignments to more complex cases.
Here are the orthodontic conditions for which Invisalign® braces are an optimal solution:
- Tooth gaps and diastemata (large interdental spaces);
- Dental crowding;
- Open occlusion;
- Reverse occlusion;
- Overbite.
