How we feel about ourselves and how we are
perceived by others has much to do with the
happiness and success we are able to obtain in
todays culture. We all remember the teen years,
but as adults we become especially aware of the
impact our appearance has on our social and
professional lives. Its no secret that having an
attractive smile is an asset. In fact, many
studies have shown that our smile is one of the
primary influences on first impressions. Because
of this, orthodontic treatment, once thought of
as a luxury, is today considered by most a
necessity. Thanks to a large television-advertisin
g budget, and the proliferation of dentists who
provide the care, Invisalign Orthodontic
treatment has become the first choice for adults
seeking a Windward dentist to have their teeth
straightened. You probably have seen the
advertisements and already know that Invisalign
is not braces. Invisalign moves teeth using
clear aligners that fit over your teeth instead
of the visible metal brackets and wires used in
traditional orthodontics. If you are considering
Invisalign orthodontic treatment there are a few
things you should know before you begin.

Invisalign aligners should be worn about 22 hours
a day. If you lose the motivation to wear them,
or you forget to wear them, you will delay the
completion of your treatment. Traditional braces
are always on and usually complete cases more
quickly. Aligners are removed to eat and to brush
and floss your teeth. Therefore, they can be lost
or, heaven forbid, eaten by your dog (happens!).
Traditional braces attached to your teeth make
maintaining good oral hygiene more difficult.
Whereas Invisalign treatment is good for certain
kinds of tooth movement and not good for large
movements or severe cases, traditional braces are
good for almost all orthodontic treatments and
generally are significantly less expensive.

Many of the new patients we see who are looking
for Invisalign orthodontic care find our practice
via internet search engines. They type inquiries
such as Kailua dentist, Family and Cosmetic
Dentist Kailua, Kaneohe Dentist, Dental Care
Kailua or best dentist Kailua. At Kaneohe Family
Dental Care, we recommend to our patients who are
interested in Invisalign that they seek treatment
from the most highly trained and experienced
dentist available. In almost all cases that means
an Orthodontist, a specially trained dentist who
does nothing but orthodontics. Many general
dentists provide minor orthodontic treatment and
offer Invisalign. However, we suggest that our
patients seek a consultation with an Orthodontic
specialist who can provide a comprehensive
diagnosis and then offer a plan that best meets
their specific needs and desires using all of the
orthodontic treatment options available.
