Straighten Your Teeth With Invisalign

Every day in dentistry new treatment alternatives are coming to accommodate people's life styles. Many people have crooked teeth, or teeth that have become crooked or overcrowded as they age. These people have traditionally not really thought of themselves as good candidates for braces, but one of the recent advances in dentistry makes straightening your teeth more comfortable at any age.

Braces that are practically invisible, called Invisalign, are available. These “invisible braces” consist of clear plastic aligners custom made exclusively for you. These specially made aligners slowly and safely bring your teeth into the ideal position in gradual movements designated by your dentist.

These movements are calculated utilizing special computer software to create a treatment plan best suited for your individual case and reviewed by you and your dentist before starting the treatment.

Invisalign aligners are very comfortable and cosmetically they are almost invisible so they fit your life style to give you the look and the confident smile you are looking for.

The aligners are worn full-time to provide the best result in the shortest period of time. About every two weeks they are replaced with a new set to keep the process going. Your dentist keeps track of the progress and makes adjustments to obtain optimal results.

Once the treatment is finished, clear retainers are fabricated and should be worn at night to maintain your new teeth positions and your new smile.

If you want to know if you are the good candidate for Invisalign, don't wait any longer consult with your dentist or a dentist who is specially trained in Invisialign treatment.
