An exciting new development has emerged in the area of attractive smiles for adults and teenagers. The Invisalign technology, developed by a computer engineer and a team of dentists, now allows individuals to greatly improve their #1 beauty asset–their smile.
Treating many patients and their cosmetic concerns has made me realize that most adults or teens over 14 years of age would love to have straighter teeth with no gaps or spaces. The problem is, traditionally, metal braces were the only option.
Now, with the Invisalign technology, straighter teeth are possible without metal braces. Invisalign is a series of clear, thin, invisible “aligners”. The aligners are so thin and crystal clear that no one ever knows you have them on. Speech is not altered and your teeth gently move into the desired position.
In both clinical research and in dental practices nationwide, Invisalign has been proven effective at straightening teeth. Only doctors trained and certified can treat using Invisalign. Using 3D-computer technology, Invisalign carefully translates our instructions into a series of customized aligners.
The aligners work very well on the front or upper or lower teeth, which may be crowded or crooked. Also, if spaces exist, these can be closed. Treatment usually takes 6 to 12 months. More difficult cases could take 24 months. Each aligner is worn for two or three weeks, moving your teeth gradually, week by week, millimeter by millimeter, until you achieve the intended result: straighter teeth.
The aligners can also be used as a whitening tray for a brighter smile. Now you can have the white, straight smile you have always wanted. Our office offers a free consultation if you’d like to find out if you are a candidate for Invisalign.
