If a straight, healthy and beautiful smile is on your list of goals this year, now is the time to take action with your smile and seek the appearance you want. Mild to moderate misalignment of the dental arch is commonly fixed with orthodontia. However, patients typically avoid speaking to Dr. Lenny Slepchik about their desires to straighten their teeth for fear of being told metal bracket and wire braces are their only option. Thanks to continued advances in general and cosmetic dentistry, there is now another way to get the same results: the Invisalign clear aligner system.
What is Invisalign?
Dr. Lenny Slepchik finds that both teenagers and adults seeking realignment of the smile are excited to learn about Invisalign as a solution and alternative to conventional orthodontics.. Instead of using metal brackets and wires, the Invisalign system uses clear aligner trays. These plastic trays are made with top-quality plastic and are fabricated with the use of 3D impressions of the patient’s current smile. The Invisalign laboratory takes these impressions and uses computer software to design the patient’s dream smile, and then creates a series of trays that are worn two weeks at a time to achieve the final result. The primary benefit of Invisalign is that patients can straighten their smile in a more discreet manner without covering their smile with metal.
What are the advantages of Invisalign treatment?
- Enhancing the smile with Invisalign is a highly desirable option for many teens and adults. In addition to being discreet, Invisalign helps with controlling cavities and disease with easy removal and cleaning of the teeth by brushing and flossing. It Is often comparable in cost with traditional braces, making them the “clear” choice
- Your aligners can be worn day and night to gently reposition the teeth into better alignment. This system Is easy to use, with precision fit aligners that snap in and out over the dental arch. Invisalign can be used to address mild to moderate cases of overbites, underbites, and crossbites. It allows patients to maintain their self-confidence while improving the smile at the same time.
