Introduction to Invisalign
Looking for teeth straightening in Portsmouth? Invisalign is fast becoming the most popular treatment plan in your area, and it’s easy to see why. If you thought your only option for teeth straightening was fixed metal braces, think again. Invisalign allows you to achieve the same results, but it uses clear and removable plastic aligners to do the work of moving your teeth into the optimum alignment. We start with digital scans of your teeth and then plot the optimum path of movement for each tooth. Next, these scans are used to create your digital treatment plan, which is then used to make a series of clear plastic aligners that will move your teeth on the correct path. You’ll wear the aligners for 20-22 hours per day and change them every 10-14 days. With every new aligner, your teeth will be a little closer to perfect alignment. Patients can see results in as little as 6 months, but treatment can take from 12 to 24 months.
Benefits of Invisalign
There are many reasons that patients will turn to Invisalign over other treatment plans. In this age of social media and video calling, people are more self conscious than ever, so the option to straighten your teeth without wearing fixed metal braces is a popular perk. Another benefit is that you can simply remove your braces if you’re having trouble for any reason. And since you can remove them to eat and brush your teeth, you don’t have to restrict your diet in any way or adapt to a new brushing routine. This can make life much easier for patients undergoing treatment, as there are fewer disruptions to their usual routine. You’ll also be able to enjoy much shorter visits to the dentist throughout treatment, and you might not need to visit as often. This is simply because adjustments are managed by you at home, so you just need to visit to make sure everything is progressing as it should.
Clear Aligners Vs Fixed Braces
While Invisalign might work for some patients, it isn’t the right path for everyone. It’s vital to consider all options available to you before you make a decision, as you might be following this treatment plan for several months. Invisalign might not be right for you if you are forgetful or if you might lose your aligners. This is because it is essential to wear your aligners for at least 20 hours per day, if not more. Failing to do this because you forget to wear your aligners or you lose your aligners could mean that your treatment plan is delayed. An alternative to this would be to wear fixed braces, but to choose tooth-coloured brackets and clear wires, as this would be far more discreet than fixed metal braces.
