Invisalign Treatment: An Alternative to Braces

Orthodontic procedures of the past involved the use of braces for gently aligning and nudging the teeth into position from a misaligned position. A wrong alignment of teeth results in wrong bites and difficulty in normal functions. Invisalign has revolutionized orthodontics with clear and transparent braces that offer similar effects of conventional braces without the embarrassing wires and metal braces combination. The fear of embarrassment has prevented individuals from seeking orthodontics treatment in the past and Invisalign has helped change the mindset.  Here is what you need to know about this game changing alternative.

Custom made aligners that slowly shift teeth into the desired position

Invisalign works on the same concept of conventional braces. That is, the different sets of braces that will be used during the entire course of the treatment will, over a period of time align the teeth slowly. The metal braces and wires of conventional braces relied on the tension of the wires to pull and pack the teeth into the desired alignment. Invisalign braces offer the same results through sets of customized and transparent trays.

Individuals can continue routine without embarrassment

Many individuals feel embarrassed due to the wires and braces and this leads to diffidence in social and professional interactions. With Invisalign, such feelings are a thing of the past. The transparent trays permit individuals to partake in all interactions with the fear of visible braces. And the braces can be removed when necessary and placed back, to continue the process of alignment. This way individual are at liberty to use and remove the braces.

Customized trays from experienced and trained dental professionals

The treatment cannot be offered by individuals who are not professionally qualified and specially trained. It involves knowledge of orthodontics, in addition to the specialist training by Invisalign. Special training is a must because the treatment involves the use of customized trays that need to be designed on the basis of desired results. The shift in alignment of teeth over a period of time needs to be calculated and monitored, in order to design the different trays that will continue the process of alignment shift.
