Invisalign: What is it?
Dental practitioners employ a variety of orthodontic treatment methods to straighten their patients’ teeth, including braces and Invisalign. They straighten teeth to ensure healthy function, offer them the optimal position, and enhance their appearance. To achieve the position, Invisalign uses a set of transparent plastic trays. In contrast, traditional braces often employ metal wires to provide the best possible mobility or position for the teeth.
How does Invisalign operate?
Invisalign aligners move your teeth by applying controlled force in the right places thanks to our revolutionary thermoplastic design. The primary distinction is that Invisalign regulates both the force and when it is applied. Only certain teeth are permitted to shift throughout each stage. Your doctor determines these motions while creating a customized Invisalign treatment plan for you.
What advantages does Invisalign offer?
Virtually undetectable are Invisalign aligners. Invisalign fits in perfectly with your lifestyle because no one may even realize that you’re wearing them. The Invisalign aligners may be taken off. Aligners should be worn 20 to 22 hours a day for optimal outcomes and a quick outcome. During treatment, you may take off your aligners to eat and drink everything you want, unlike with braces. In order to maintain proper dental hygiene and fresh breath, you can also take off the aligners to brush and floss as usual. Unlike traditional braces, there are no metal brackets or wires that might irritate your mouth. Additionally, you’ll probably spend less time in the doctor’s chair because there won’t be any metal or wire modifications throughout your treatment appointments. To preview how your straightened teeth will seem when treatment is finished, Invisalign lets you examine your virtual outcomes and treatment plan before you begin.
Will there be pain during the Invisalign procedure?
Some patients have brief discomfort for a few days at the start of each new treatment phase, even though Invisalign moves your teeth without the pain and worry that metal braces can bring. This is common and is referred to as a pressure-like sensation. As your teeth progress toward their final position, it’s also an indication that Invisalign is doing its job. Usually, this soreness subsides after a few days.
Will my speech change if I use Invisalign aligners?
Like other orthodontic procedures, some people may experience a brief speech impairment from Invisalign aligners, such as a little lisp that lasts for a day or two. However, any lisp brought on by the aligners should go away as your tongue adjusts to having them in your mouth.
