Invisalign Clear Aligners – Top 10 Most Asked Questions
Do you dream of a straighter smile but dislike the thought of living with braces for months? If so, then the information we’re about to share with you could make your day.
Thanks to recent advances in technology, we are now able to offer our patients an orthodontic treatment that has been described as ‘revolutionary’ by dental professionals. We’re proud to add Invisalign clear-aligners to the many orthodontic solutions our experienced dentists are able to provide.
What is Invisalign?
The Invisalign treatment utilises a series of clear aligners to apply constant pressure to your teeth over a series of months. The aligners used in this treatment are completely bespoke to you and are therefore extremely comfortable; some patients have even forgotten that they are there.
What are the benefits?
The main benefit of Invisalign compared to other orthodontic treatments is its incredibly discreet nature. However, this is not the only reason why this treatment is favoured by many. The constant pressure that is applied to a patient’s teeth makes this one of the faster methods of re-aligning teeth. Our dentist is able to monitor this treatment and tailor it if necessary to ensure that the entire process is as efficient as it can possibly be. In addition to this, the removable nature of these aligners mean that the results can be seen from quite an early stage.
Who is Invisalign suitable for?
This revolutionary treatment can usually be used to treat those who have one of the following issues:
- Overcrowded teeth
- Widely spaced teeth
- Cross bites
- Deep bites
- Under bites
Unfortunately, this treatment isn’t suitable for everybody however we are able to access your suitability for the many orthodontic treatments we provide at an indepth consultation. In this session we will assess your current level of oral health and listen to your requirements and preferences before talking you through your options. We feel it is our responsibility to advise you on the best treatment for your needs and will always be completely open and honest when doing so.
