Very few people are destined to have perfect teeth. Traditionally, braces have been the answer to bite and tooth alignment problems. They do the job, but they are not attractive, they can be uncomfortable, and in many cases, painful. For years, adults have shied away from straightening their teeth for these reasons. Invisalign in Westmont has changed all that, though. Invisalign® is the logical alternative for many good reasons, some of which are:
* Appearance: Metal braces are not attractive, even when the brackets are made from clear plastic or tooth-colored ceramic. They are quite noticeable and food can become trapped. Teeth cleaning and flossing is difficult. Invisalign®, on the other hand, is, as the name implies, virtually invisible. Invisalign® is made from medical grade clear thermoplastic.
* Comfort: Once braces are fitted, they must stay in place for the duration of the treatment, which can be many months. Invisalign® aligners are designed to be removed. It is much easier to eat and perform oral hygiene when you have chosen Invisalign® over conventional metal braces. Invisalign® aligners can be removed for two or three hours every day without causing any problems.
* Safety: The metal arch wire, brackets, and anchors used for conventional braces can easily scratch the inside of the mouth. Clear Invisalign aligners in Westmont are smooth; they are custom made to fit snugly over your teeth, and there are no sharp edges or protrusions to worry about. As Invisalign® aligners are changed every two weeks, they place very little pressure on teeth, whereas conventional braces use considerable force to straighten and realign teeth.
Overall, Invisalign in Westmount is superior to metal braces; they do the job quicker, and, as the program is designed by computer, you know in advance what to expect.
