Reasons to Choose Invisalign Over Traditional Braces

If you are concerned about your smile, Invisalign® could be the right cosmetic dentistry solution for your needs. These clear aligners can straighten teeth, fix a crowded mouth, and correct bite abnormalities. For decades, braces were the only way to achieve these goals. In recent years, aligners have become more and more common. It is plain to see why. There are many advantages to wearing these trays than having traditional metal braces.

Why people treat tooth-alignment issues

Deciding to do Invisalign treatment has both oral health and cosmetic benefits. Having crooked teeth, abnormally large or small teeth, or bite problems can be embarrassing. People who struggle with these problems often hide their smile or avoid social settings. People also choose to wear aligners to reduce the risk of having tooth decay or gum disease. When teeth are crooked, it can be difficult to brush them effectively. Also, underbites, crossbites, and overbites can cause jaw pain.

Invisalign does not stand out

If someone wears metal braces, it is not difficult to spot them. Braces are readily visible when a person smiles, speaks, or eats. Having a mouthful of metal is not aesthetically pleasing. It can even hurt a person’s self-esteem or self-image. Aligners are virtually invisible and are nearly impossible to detect.

Aligners are more comfortable

While it may take several days to get used to wearing aligners, these trays will not pose the same challenges as braces when it comes to comfort. Braces tend to rub against the cheeks and gums. It is common for people to get sores and cuts inside the mouth. The plastic aligners will not irritate the mouth in the same way.

The aligners are removable

People love that Invisalign trays are removable. This is convenient in situations such as mealtime and during certain activities such as sports. Braces stay on the teeth for the entire treatment period; only the dentist can remove them. Taking out the trays while eating keeps the aligners cleaner and promotes good oral health.

Faster results

It is not uncommon for people to wear braces for 2 ½ years or longer. Some people may need to wear them for three years. Clear aligners do their job more quickly, sometimes moving teeth into the right places within six months. Most patients can stop wearing them within two years of starting the treatment. Also, 24-hour-a-day wear is not necessary. Patients with Invisalign can go two to three hours a day without wearing them.

Bypass braces and go with clear aligners

Traditional metal braces may still have their place. However, there is no question that Invisalign trays offer benefits that braces cannot match. From aesthetics to comfort to shorter treatment length, it makes sense to choose this option. If you are looking for a beautiful smile with straight teeth, talk to your dentist today. You are not far away from enjoying the appearance you have been waiting for.
