When taking on problems with the alignment of your teeth, you should consider all of the options available to provide a straighter smile. While the cosmetic benefits of orthodontic treatment are clear, certain patients may have concerns about the look of their appliance during the actual treatment phase. This is why bringing your smile into position with a clear aligner therapy may be preferred over traditional metal braces. With treatment from Invisalign, you will find that correcting your smile does not have to impede its appearance!
Your Fort Worth, TX, orthodontist can evaluate your degree of malocclusion to determine if you are a candidate for Invisalign therapy. Without the need for wires, clear aligners prioritize comfort by simply sliding over your teeth. Because they are removable as well, Invisalign allows you to maintain a high-quality oral hygiene routine without interfering with your brushing and flossing habit. You will learn how clear aligner therapy complements your daily routine to offer quality results without disruption.
The Value Of Straighter Teeth
When your teeth are in the proper position, they become much easier to clean and prevent problems with tooth decay and gum disease. Conversely, when teeth crowd they create areas for plaque to hide unreachable by your brush or floss. Your higher chance for decay can lead to even further problems with your alignment as teeth prematurely wear down and your bite shifts out of line. By seeking orthodontic care, you can prevent this possibility and maintain the health of your smile!
Creating Your Clear Aligners
Because each patient’s smile is unique, we design each set of clear aligners to match your individual bite. Modern imaging techniques allow us to streamline the process of creating impressions of your teeth for creating your aligners. Digital imaging provides a higher degree of accuracy and means no need for a messy, physical impression mold. Technicians will use these images to plan your series of aligner trays. Each made from BPA-free materials, you will wear your trays in succession as they gradually pull your teeth into the desired alignment.
Wearing Your Aligners
We will provide instructions for properly wearing your custom-fit aligners. Remember that the success of your treatment corresponds to following these recommendations. In general, you will wear a set for the majority of the day and while you sleep, but may remove them to eat, and when you brush and floss your teeth. Clear aligners reduce your time in the dentist’s chair as there is no need to periodically adjust the tension of any wires. Simply move on to the next set when it is time!
