Invisalign Braces

How Does Invisalign Work?

Invisalign is perhaps the most modern tooth-straightening procedure practiced in dentistry today. Utilizing a series of custom-fitted aligners, your teeth are gradually shifted into the perfect position. These aligners are constructed from smooth, virtually invisible plastic to correct crooked teeth comfortably and effectively. Invisalign eliminates the need to attach metal brackets to your teeth, and you’ll never have to have wires adjusted or tightened. Together with your dentist or orthodontist, you’ll develop a unique plan to gently shift your teeth into place. Invisalign aligners are worn over your teeth; and every couple of weeks you’ll receive a new set of invisible aligners until treatment is complete.

Why Choose Invisalign Vancouver?

Invisalign is not only an invisible treatment for crooked teeth, but it is a revolutionary option for patients who want to correct their teeth comfortably and conveniently. For patients of all ages, Invisalign is a great option that has minimal impact on your day-to-day life. Not only will most friends, family members, and colleagues be unaware of your Invisalign treatment, but you’ll be able to maintain your regular oral health and eating habits.

Let’s compare Vancouver Invisalign with traditional braces

With Invisalign treatments:

• The treatment is virtually invisible,
• You’ll wear smooth, comfortable plastic aligners,
• You can remove aligners to clean them and your teeth, and
• You can continue to eat your favourite foods.

Alternatively, braces:

• Require the use of unsightly brackets and wires,
• Are uncomfortable as wires irritate the gums and mouth,
• Make brushing and flossing more difficult, and
• Require patients avoid foods like popcorn or gum.

Health Benefits of Invisalign

Not only do patients prefer the comfort and inconspicuous nature of Invisalign, but they experience a number of health benefits as well. A properly aligned smile helps the gums fit better around teeth so that your mouth is better able to defend against periodontal problems. In addition, straight teeth are much easier to brush and floss so that you are less likely to suffer from tooth decay. You’ll even experience greater confidence and self-esteem knowing that you sport a truly beautiful smile.
