  • THE VISIBLE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN

INVISALIGN AND BRACES
3
INVISALIGN ARE CLEAR
4
  • If you are visiting a family dentists office to
    learn more about orthodontic treatment, then you
    need to know the differences between Invisalign
    and braces.

5
  • You probably have seen Invisalign advertised on
    television because these clear aligners are the
    newest, fastest and easiest way to straighten
    mild malocclusions of the teeth.

6
  • In the past, many individuals avoided orthodontic
    treatment unless they had major problems such as
    severe overbites or large gaps between their
    teeth.

7
  • This was because the only type of treatment
    available was metallic wire and bracket braces
    that were easy for everyone to see and also felt
    uncomfortable in the mouth.

8
IMPROVES MILD MALOCCLUSIONS
9
  • Fortunately, with Invisalign you can improve
    simple dental problems by shifting the front
    teeth into a better position to create a gorgeous
    smile and a stronger bite.

10
  • The most visible difference between braces and
    Invisalign is that you can see braces inside your
    mouth and other people can also see the wires or
    ceramic brackets.

11
  • Invisalign is a popular orthodontic treatment
    because your dentist can create the devices
    quickly from molds after taking medical images of
    your mouth and facial structure.

12
  • A computer software program is able to create
    approximately 25 sets of Invisalign aligners that
    are each made in a slightly different
    configuration.

13
ALIGNERS ARE REMOVABLE
14
  • When you receive your first set of Invisalign
    aligners, you will wear the devices for
    approximately two weeks and return for another
    evaluation from the dentist.

15
  • In some cases, adjustments are required for
    future aligners, especially for teenagers who
    grow rapidly.

16
  • The dentist will tell you to wear Invisalign
    aligners for 23 hours each day, and you should
    only remove the devices for oral health care that
    includes brushing and flossing.

17
  • Invisalign aligners are almost impossible to see,
    but a dentist may permit removal of the items for
    special occasions.

18
  • If you follow a dentists guidelines for wearing
    Invisalign, then your teeth will shift into the
    correct positions faster.

19
DURABLE PLASTIC DEVICES
20
  • You will wear one Invisalign on your top teeth
    and one on your bottom teeth to move teeth slowly
    into better positions to reduce gaps and
    misalignment.

21
  • An Invisalign aligner is made of a durable
    plastic that will begin to show some wear and
    tear over the two weeks it is worn.

22
  • You feel slight pressure on your teeth as the
    devices push against dental surfaces.

23
  • Make sure to wear the aligners in the correct
    order that a dentist recommends, and if an
    Invisalign aligner degrades completely, then
    contact a dentist to learn how to deal with the
    situation.

24
ALIGNERS ARE AFFORDABLE
25
  • While you might want to wear Invisalign aligners
    instead of braces, only a dentist can determine
    if the devices are suitable for your
    malocclusions.

26
  • If you have severe misalignments of your teeth,
    then a dentist can customize braces that are worn
    for a longer amount of time.

27
  • Today, there are lingual braces worn on the backs
    of teeth or color-matching ceramic braces that
    are difficult for others to see inside your mouth.

28
  • Invisalign aligners cost less than braces and you
    do not need to visit a family dentists office as
    often.

29
  • If you are seeking professional dental advice,
    it's time to call Shumway Dental Care.

30
  • Their Chandler dentists will ask you questions,
    examine you, and determine exactly what needs to
    be done to get you back to normal.
