Invisalign

Invisalign is a popular orthodontic treatment that has become increasingly popular in recent years due to its many benefits. Invisalign is a clear aligner system that uses custom-made, removable trays to straighten teeth. Unlike traditional metal braces, Invisalign aligners are nearly invisible, making them a discreet and convenient option for those seeking orthodontic treatment. Dr. Stephanie Martin is our Invisalign Specialist  with Invisalign treatment at Martin Dentistry. These are the key advantages why Invisalign might  be the right choice for you. 

Appearance

One of the biggest advantages of Invisalign is its appearance. As mentioned, Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible, which makes them a more appealing option for people who don't want to draw attention to their orthodontic treatment. Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign aligners do not have any metal brackets or wires that can be seen, so patients can go about their daily lives without feeling self-conscious.

Comfort

Invisalign aligners are made of a smooth, flexible plastic that is custom-molded to fit each patient's teeth. This means that they are much more comfortable than traditional metal braces, which can cause discomfort and irritation to the gums and cheeks. Invisalign aligners are also removable, which means that patients can take them out when they need to eat or brush their teeth, making them a more comfortable option overall.

Convenience

Invisalign aligners are very convenient for patients. Unlike traditional braces, which require frequent visits to the orthodontist for adjustments, Invisalign patients only need to visit Dr. Stephanie Martin every few weeks to check on their progress. In addition, because Invisalign aligners are removable, patients can continue to eat their favorite foods without worrying about damaging their braces. They can also continue to brush and floss their teeth as normal, without having to navigate around metal brackets and wires.

Effective

Despite their many advantages, some people may wonder if Invisalign is as effective as traditional braces. The truth is, Invisalign is just as effective as traditional braces in most cases. In fact, because Invisalign aligners are custom-made to fit each patient's teeth, they can sometimes be even more effective than traditional braces. In addition, because Invisalign aligners apply a constant, gentle pressure to the teeth, the treatment process is often faster than with traditional braces.

Versatility

Finally, Invisalign is a versatile treatment option that can be used to correct a wide range of orthodontic issues. Invisalign can be used to correct crooked teeth, gaps between teeth, overbites, underbites, and other common orthodontic problems. In fact, many patients who were once told that they were not candidates for Invisalign have been able to successfully use the treatment to achieve their desired results.

Invisalign is a popular and effective orthodontic treatment option that offers many advantages over traditional braces. From its nearly invisible appearance to its comfort, convenience, and versatility, Invisalign is a great choice for anyone looking to straighten their teeth.
