Benefits of Invisalign

Clear aligners, such as Invisalign, can be used as an alternative to traditional metal braces to straighten teeth. Traditional braces (appliances) are “fixed” or bonded to the teeth; aligners, such as Invisalign, are “non-fixed appliances” that are removable orthodontic devices.

Compared to traditional wired-braces, Invisalign utilizes clear plastic aligners that come in different forms - including retainers and night guards.

The benefits of orthodontic treatment, either traditional or with aligners, extend beyond straighter teeth. Orthodontic treatment has also proven to improve patients' overall dental health, particularly periodontal health and oral hygiene.

Invisalign is not always suitable for all types of orthodontic treatment needs. It is important for patients to understand the most suitable treatment for their teeth by discussing their orthodontic diagnosis and treatment options with their dentist.
