Like food and clean water, a fabulous smile should be a human right, for so many that are not the case. If you have crooked teeth or teeth that are tilted, you are afraid to smile. Bad luck robs you of a wonderful personality since you can’t warmly smile and greet others. The traditional way to treat such malocclusions has been to use braces. Braces have a lot of problems and most shy away from using them. Now with Invisalign, all your problems are at an end. A major innovation in the field of dental science, Invisalign, gives you the perfect smile at a minimal cost.
In a way, Invisalign looks similar to braces. It acts the same way by exerting pressure on teeth to persuade them back into place. But there, the similarity ends. Traditional metal braces look like a contraption from the Middle Ages with springs and metal parts. There are tiny wires and screws. It feels as if you have a metal factory in your mouth.
Invisalign, on the other hand, is synthetic, lightweight, and made of transparent material. The synthetic material used for making Invisalign is medical grade plastic, polyurethane to be exact. It is hypoallergenic and weighs a few grams. Slip it in during the day and slip it out at night. Wear the aligner for some months and your teeth are back in place. In short, Invisalign for kids works like magic.
It all starts with a visit to your dentist. He would examine your teeth and find the cause of the problem. Of course, like all medical issues, crooked teeth might be slight, moderate, or severe. Invisalign, like all treatments, works with slight and moderate cases. Severe problems might need surgical intervention.
After an examination of your oral cavity, the dentist would take a series of images that render a 3D picture of your mouth. This is very important since Invisalign is the product of a decade-long R & D and involves extremely advanced dental implants for crafting the pair of aligners.
The software shows exactly which teeth need to be treated and how much force. With results from that, an Invisalign aligner is made especially for you. The process takes a few hours and the dentist might break it into two visits. The brand new plastic brace is fitted into your mouth and adjustments are made to make it as comfortable as possible.
At first, you would find it a little odd. There is something new inside your mouth and it takes a bit of getting adjusted to. However, the Smart Track material with which Invisalign is made is very light and sturdy. Most people would not even realize that you are wearing braces.
Not long at all. For most patients, Invisalign shows visible results by 12 weeks. Human teeth have deep roots. These extend deep inside the jaw and anchor the teeth. It takes time to exert pressure and move them back. The process is slow to avoid any complications.
At all times, Invisalign ensures that your experience is pain-free. That is why the pressure is gradual and it would take some time to see the results. But, do not expect to find a miracle by the end of the first week.
You would have to visit your dental care professional at intervals. They would inspect your progress and make changes. You must remember during this time that every patient is different. We do not respond to treatment uniformly. Some will take a little less time and others more. The most important part is that you not be impatient and heed your doctor’s advice at all times.
Invisalign is light years ahead of traditional metal braces. It is the product of meticulous research and impeccable design.
Do you know that the design of metal braces can be traced back to 1669!
Unlike metal braces, no one would notice Invisalign unless they were quite close. Traditional braces look hideous and patients avoid them at all costs. Not so with Invisalign.
You can remove the aligners when you want
Just pop them out of your mouth like grandpa does with his dentures. But it’s a good idea to let them work for several hours every day and remove them during your sleep.
Invisalign is light and gentle
Metal braces not only look horrible but feel like a chainsaw between your jaws. Invisalign is made of neutral material and no one has had an allergic reaction. It becomes an extension of you in a few days.
When you wear it, Invisalign needs very little modification
With normal types of braces, you often have to visit the dentist. They push and pull the springs to ensure that treatment is proceeding well. With Invisalign, no such hassle. At most, an Invisalign attachment is plugged in to ensure greater pressure.
You can brush your teeth with no problem
Just take the aligners out and wash them with tepid, warm water. Care for your teeth and floss them as usual. The design philosophy of Invisalign is centred around your comfort.
That would largely depend on the establishment that fits you out with Invisalign aligners. It could range from £2,000 to £5,000. The difference is associated with the experience of the dentist treating you and how crooked your teeth are. At Natural Smiles, our motto is to give everyone a healthy and happy smile at a minimum expense. You would find that we charge considerably less than others. That does not mean we compromise on the quality of care. It’s just that we feel our clients deserve the best possible treatment at the least cost.
In summary
Are there any downsides? Let us assure you there is not. It is not that Invisalign does any magic but the result of a lot of hard work and dedication from the topmost researchers in the field. Natural Smiles employs the best dental care professionals assuring you of perfect results in a short while. But at the same time, you have to remain committed to wearing Invisalign every waking hour. If you do, there is every possibility that crooked teeth would look normal in very few months.
