Invisalign in Ormond Beach
What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is an orthodontic treatment that involves the use of clear plastic aligners to help straighten your teeth. Traditionally metal braces are used to straighten teeth by applying pressure to your teeth. This helps change their position slowly over time. Invisalign works almost exactly the same way. It applies a small pressure to the teeth allowing them to realign over time. However, the patient can remove their Invisalign at anytime throughout the day. At Dr. Drake’s dental office in Ormond Beach, this treatment can be used to address misalignment issues such as underbite, overbite, open bite, crossbite, and/or crowded teeth.
The benefits of Invisalign
Metal braces have been used for decades and still remain as one of the most popular ways to fix unaligned teeth. Invisalign offers several benefits over the older treatment. The first being that they are much more comfortable than traditional braces. There might still be a bit of discomfort when the aligner is new. During this period the patient is getting adjusted to the new fit, but there is no danger of injuring the soft tissues of the mouth with metal wires or brackets.
Below is a list of additional benefits of using Invisalign:
- They are available for all ages.
- They are very affordable.
- You will see results in as little as 2-3 months
- You can eat just about anything you want with ease.
- Invisalign aligners are clear plastic and almost completely “invisible”.
- You are able to take them out for photos, eating, and brushing.
- They are very smooth and comfortable to wear.
