Can Invisalign® Change Your Smile?
Would you love to improve the alignment of your teeth but are not interested in wearing traditional metal braces? Dr. Woodall can help and has the perfect treatment for your needs. Patients love Invisalign®, a common orthodontic treatment that straightens teeth without metal braces.
What is Invisalign?
Over the past few years, Invisalign has become a popular orthodontic treatment. This treatment uses clear aligner trays to slowly transition the teeth into the proper alignment. It is a wonderful treatment plan for older teens and adults who want to straighten their teeth discreetly. Following a thorough examination of your teeth, we will determine if Invisalign can help treat issues with your teeth such as:
- Crooked teeth
- Crowded teeth
- Gap teeth
- Teeth with minor bite issues
Benefits of Invisalign
Our patients who have completed Invisalign treatment love the results. This treatment also offers many benefits that our patients appreciate:
Removable Trays Instead of Metal Brackets and Wires
The trays need to be removed before eating, drinking anything other than water, and brushing your teeth.
No Food Restrictions
Patients love that they can enjoy their favorite foods while they are receiving orthodontic treatment. With metal braces, patients have a long list of food restrictions, which can be disheartening and cause patients to ignore the restrictions and cause damage to the hardware on their teeth. Invisalign trays can be damaged if you do not remove them before eating.
Easy to Clean Teeth
Your teeth can be cleaned the same way as always. Be sure to brush and floss your teeth as usual. It is also important to clean the trays as we instruct.
Limited Appointments in Office
When wearing traditional metal braces, frequent appointments are needed to adjust the hardware. With Invisalign, the trays are provided for you to change on your own. We do need to check your teeth, but not as frequently as with other orthodontic options.
