There are lots of ways you can straighten your teeth, Brooklyn Invisalign is one of the very few solutions that are almost invisible and which doesn’t have any brackets or wires. Instead, you can look forward to receiving orthodontic treatment virtually worry-free because the clear aligners used in this procedure let you continue with everyday life without embarrassment.
Most people will never notice you are wearing braces as once in place, the aligners only create a slight halo effect around teeth, and the only people who are likely to recognize this effect are those who have already undergone treatment. There are lots of benefits in choosing Invisalign so let’s explore what treatment could offer you.
More Discreet
Most people don’t want to advertise the fact they are receiving orthodontic treatment as an adult, even though it has become a far more popular procedure in recent years. Invisalign aligners are completely clear, so they are a great option for anyone with a busy social life or professional life, and they are suitable for adults and young adults and older teens.
Improved Comfort
Traditional braces consist of brackets and wires that can easily dig into cheeks and gums, whereas Invisalign aligner trays are made from smooth plastic. There are no parts that can dig into soft tissues and no sharp edges. Because the aligner trays are custom-made to fit over your teeth, they are entirely comfortable to wear.
Better Oral Hygiene
Fixed braces have tricky components to clean around, including brackets, wires, bands and elastic bands. Special tools are needed to clean around these braces thoroughly and it takes time to brush and floss your teeth. If you don’t spend the extra time cleaning your teeth properly, you run the risk of white spot lesions developing on your teeth and which are the earliest signs of tooth decay. Sometimes, once the brackets are removed there can be visible stains on teeth that are tricky to eliminate. Invisalign trays make it super simple to care for your oral health during treatment.
Whenever you need to brush and floss your teeth, you remove the aligners so you can clean your teeth before popping the aligner trays back in. The trays themselves are also easy to keep clean as they can be rinsed under running water and brushed gently with a toothbrush, or you can buy a special soaking solution from Invisalign or use a denture-cleaning tablet to keep them hygienic and fresh. The need for good oral hygiene during orthodontic treatment cannot be stressed enough as it is important to maintain healthy teeth and gums so you will have the strongest, healthiest and most beautiful smile at the end of treatment.
Time-Saving
When you have fixed braces, you will need to see your orthodontist regularly so the braces can be adjusted. This often means lengthy appointments so the wires can be tightened, and any loose brackets re-cemented onto teeth. With Invisalign, you will still need to see your dentist regularly, but the appointments are far quicker. There are no components to tighten and it’s simply a matter of your dentist checking that your teeth are straightening as predicted in your treatment plan.
Eat Whatever You Want
Are you worried about changing your diet during treatment? If you have ever known anyone with fixed braces, you will know they aren’t the best during mealtimes. Wearers usually have to avoid numerous types of food including anything that is very crunchy, hard, or anything sticky. When they eat these foods, they run the risk of spending hours trying to clean them off braces, or even worse these foods can damage the brackets and wires, leaving them with the problem of scheduling an emergency dental appointment to mend their braces. With Invisalign aligners, you eat whatever you want as nothing is off-limits. There is no need to change your diet because every time you have a meal or something to drink, you just remove your aligner trays.
Improved Oral Health
Generally, straightening your teeth with Invisalign or another orthodontic system can be a great investment in your smile. This is especially true if you have teeth that are significantly overcrowded or overlapping, or if you have gaps in between them that frequently trap food. When your teeth are straight and evenly aligned, it’s far easier to brush and floss them thoroughly, reducing your risk of dental diseases like gum disease and tooth decay. Also, correcting problems with your bite can reduce unwanted wear and tear on teeth. When you have a poor bite, it’s highly likely you will bite down on some teeth before others, and these teeth will bear the brunt of the force created when you chew food. Consequently, they are more likely to wear down more quickly or even worse could chip and fracture under the additional strain.

See Before You Buy
Perhaps one of the biggest advantages in choosing Invisalign clear aligners is the ability to see your new smile before you decide to proceed with treatment. Invisalign utilizes the very latest software and digital technologies, creating 3-D virtual images of your teeth that are used to plan every step of your treatment.
After assessing your suitability for Invisalign, your Invisalign dentist will scan your teeth, taking a digital impression. The scan is completed using a tiny camera that takes thousands of images each second and which are digitally stitched together to create a 3-D model of your teeth. Your dentist can then manipulate these images, gradually straightening your teeth until you have a beautiful straight smile. You get to preview these images, seeing every stage of your treatment before your first set of aligners are even created. It’s an excellent way to become more involved in your treatment, and most people find this part very exciting. Once you can see the benefits, you can decide if you wish to proceed and your Invisalign aligners are created for you.
These are some of the reasons why Invisalign aligners are popular worldwide, and they are renowned for providing a proven and predictable treatment outcome. People love them because of their ease of use, and of course, they are virtually invisible which is incredibly appealing. What is even better is that treatment is suitable for most adults with strong and healthy teeth. Treatment typically takes a year but sometimes it can be considerably faster if the corrections are merely cosmetic and only affect the front teeth.
