Invisalign Before and After

Our NJ dentist clients often ask about correcting smiles that are not straight. Invisalign before and after photos reveal that the treatment results in great smiles. Having a nice even smile can help you feel more confident in your personal and professional life. Traditional braces are a great way to improve your smile, so that you can show those pearly whites and not feel self conscious about how they look. Unfortunately, while you are wearing them, you must deal with the hassles of metal orthodontic hardware in your mouth. You can achieve that great confident smile with Invisalign. Before and after photos reveal that you can get the spectacular results of braces without having the visible brackets and wires while you are getting treatment. Invisalign involves a precision molded removable plastic insert that is readjusted every two weeks.

The Invisalign before and after photos reveal that there is no hardware mounted to the teeth in which to get food stuck which means that you avoid tooth decay. You can brush and floss normally, with no special flossing equipment. You do not have to change the types of food that you eat and drink to avoid damaging it, as you take out and put back the Invisalign before and after you eat. You avoid inconvenient additional dental visits for repairs of broken wires and brackets. The aligner is made of smooth plastic, and so is more comfortable than braces, with no gum and cheek mouth sores or irritation like you might get with metal hardware. Because the most efficient adjustment plan is calculated by a computer, the teeth do not have to be adjusted back and forth to correct them if they are shifted too far in a direction. There is no problem playing woodwind or brass instruments, since the aligner can be removed. Individuals who play sports or live athletic lifestyles often prefer the convenience of a removable appliance as well.

Invisalign is not recommended for all cases needing tooth aligning treatment. The aligner is recommended for and has been most frequently used to treat minor class I crowding, which means there is insufficient space for the normal complement of adult teeth to be in alignment. In more severe cases of crowding and with other orthodontic problems, conventional braces are necessary. Because it is removable, Invisalign only works if the patient uses the appliance as they are directed to. Invisalign is only a treatment option if all of the permanent teeth have come in.

If you have thought of using Invisalign before, and after a while decided you needed more information, now is the time.
