Invisalign Is a Gentler Alternative to Traditional Braces
Many adult patients may have unfond memories of wearing braces. Today, through advancements in modern dental equipment, materials and technology, we now have alternatives to straightening your teeth. Designed as a stress-free alternative to metal braces, clear plastic aligners address and correct many of the same smile flaws.
Invisalign is a patient-friendly orthodontic treatment that offers many benefits. Many patients love how virtually invisible these clear aligners are, which can be ideal for teenagers or professional adults. Invisalign uses smooth plastic material that is very kind to your cheeks, gums and lips compared to wires and metal brackets.
Your custom-fabricated Invisalign trays are removable before meals or to brush your teeth. This allows patients to continue enjoying their favourite diet while also maintaining excellent oral hygiene. Patients who grind or clench their teeth find that these plastic aligners also function as a protective mouthguard that protects and maintain their smile.
Avondale dentist, Dr Sinan Najar, can determine if this dental treatment is a viable option to help you achieve the smile you want.
