Invisalign
Invisalign is a common and valuable orthodontic appliance that is a transparent apparatus that goes over the teeth to keep your smile picture perfect. They are often thought of as an alternative to conventional metal braces and research has shown that invisalign is just as effective in straightening teeth. Because of their invisible appearance, these aligners are more popular among adult patients.
How Do Invisalign Braces Work?
Invisalign trays are used much like a strengthening coat that is placed over the teeth to keep them straight and to insure better care for the teeth as well. They are easily administered orally and just as easily removed for eating and cleaning needs.
After one initial consultation a photo and a three-dimensional casting indentation is produced to set up the invisalign trays that will fit perfectly into the contours of your mouth. From the indentation, the fitted aligner is manufactured and placed over your teeth. Progress is then monitored and supervised by Dr. Cieplak so that you are completely comfortable during the corrective process.
Invisalign Dentist vs. Braces
There are many advantages to choosing invisalign appliances, but the most salient feature is its cosmetic applications. As opposed to traditional metallic braces which are unsightly and highly visible. Another advantage of invisalign, in comparison to traditional braces, is that they have less discomfort and offer more support at the gums and supporting tissues to ensure a patient’s comfort and safety. One last important distinction between invisalign and braces is that invisalign aligners are easily removable for eating and cleaning which makes them popular with patients who have particular diet concerns.
