Benefit from the Best with Clear Braces in Valparaiso

Are you interested in getting a straight smile? Choose a clear advantage in orthodontics with clear braces in Valparaiso. Invisalign has quickly become the preferred orthodontic treatment because it does not involve the use of metal wires and brackets. You will enjoy a nearly invisible treatment for a straight smile in less time when compared to metal braces. As your dentist for beautiful smiles, we offer Invisalign in Valparaiso for a straight, beautiful smile.

What is Invisalign?

Invisalign involves the use of custom-made aligner trays that are worn over the teeth. The clear trays are created in a series, with each tray worn for about two weeks. As you progress through each tray in the series, the teeth are gradually moved into their correct positions. On average, it takes about 12 months to progress through the entire treatment.

Why Choose Invisalign?

When compared to traditional braces, Invisalign offers unsurpassed benefits. Of the greatest benefit is the fact the treatment is nearly invisible due to the absence of metal wires and brackets. In addition, the lack of metal wires and brackets means there is no tugging or pulling on the teeth. The clear, smooth trays offer a higher level of comfort because there are no wires or brackets irritating the inside of the lips or cheeks.

Overall, the treatment is more comfortable and convenient. The trays are removable, so there are no dietary restrictions and oral hygiene is simple. Not to mention, you are able to switch to the next tray in the series right at home so there are a reduced number of appointments needed when compared to traditional braces.

How Does Invisalign Work?

Invisalign is considered to be a safe and effective treatment. However, it is not suitable for those who have extreme misalignment or bite complications. As a result, you will need to undergo a consultation to determine if you are a candidate for Invisalign. If Invisalign is right for you, 3D Images, photographs, impressions, and x-rays are taken of the mouth. We use these images to create a customized treatment plan. Essentially, we map out your mouth through each stage of treatment, allowing your teeth to move with each new stage. In as little as 12 months, you will complete your treatment. However, the exact time of treatment needed varies case-by-case. When your treatment is complete, you will require the use of a retainer to prevent your teeth from moving back into the previous positions.
