What is Invisalign?
If you have mild to moderate alignment issues, then our dentist South Yarra may suggest Invisalign as a suitable treatment to address the matter. Invisalign is a clear aligner system that can be used to align the teeth without the need for a fixed appliance. It’s a popular choice for adults who want a discreet treatment that can also get results quickly. On average, Invisalign can treat patients in as little as 6 to 18 months.
The problems of having misaligned teeth
There are a number of problems that can be caused by misaligned teeth. Firstly, you may experience speech problems. This is because misaligned teeth can make it difficult to pronounce certain sounds. A further issue can be that misaligned teeth can make it difficult to chew food properly. If that isn’t enough reason to consider realigning your smile, then consider that misaligned teeth can make it difficult to keep your gums clean, which can lead to gum disease and further dental issues. And, if that isn’t enough, you may already know that having misaligned teeth can affect your self-esteem and confidence.
What types of misalignment does Invisalign treat?
Our dentist South Yarra will be able to look at your mouth and assess whether or not Invisalign is the right treatment for you. However, it is worth noting that Invisalign can treat a wide range of misalignments, including an overbite. An overbite occurs when the upper teeth overlap the lower teeth. It can also be used to treat an underbite, which is where the lower teeth overlap the upper teeth. It can also be used to treat a crossbite, which is when the upper teeth on one side of the mouth bite inside the lower teeth on the other side of the mouth. Invisalign can also be used to address spacing, which is when there are gaps between the teeth and it can also be used to treat crowding, which is when the teeth are too close together.
What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is a clear aligner system that uses a series of custom-made devices to move teeth gradually over time. The aligners are made from a clear, plastic material that is virtually invisible, so you can wear them without anyone knowing you’re undergoing orthodontic treatment.
The advantages of Invisalign
There are many advantages to choosing Invisalign treatment, such as the fact that the Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible, so you can wear them without anyone knowing you’re having any treatment. Invisalign’s aligners also offer a lot of comfort and can be removed for meals and brushing, which means that you can avoid having to clean masticated food off the aligners, and you can keep up with your oral hygiene routine. This makes them highly convenient, especially when you can remove them for up to 2 hours a day.
