We are thrilled to add a new revolutionary procedure to our Parkway Dental Centerlist of services: the Invisalign treatmentwhich is a virtually invisible way to straighten your teeth. The Invisalign system composed of comfortable and clear plastic aligner trays which are changed out as teeth shift can replace traditional braces for selected patients. The practicality and aesthetics of the system have proven a great draw for adults who want to straighten and correct the position of their teeth without drawing attention to braces. Invisalign is also appropriate for teens if they have no more “baby teeth'' and if the second molars are at least partially erupted.
Using advanced 3D computer-imaging technology, Invisalign shows you your complete treatment plan from the initial position of your teeth towards the final desired position. Then a series of clear aligners are custom-made for your teeth to move them little by little.
Invisalign aligners move teeth through a series of carefully controlled movements. Unlike traditional braces,Invisalign procedurenot only controls the amount of movement that each aligner delivers, but also the timing of the movement. So, at each stage, only certain teeth can move, following the Invisalign treatment plan for that particular stage. This results in an efficient force delivery system.
1. Appearance:- Invisalign Clear Braces Look Better and are barely noticeable compared to the metal braces. Metal braces can cause the appearance of the mouth to be unattractive but Invisalign aligners look very much as though the person wearing them is not wearing braces at all.
2. Comfort:- Clear Braces Can Be Removed When Necessary. If, for any reason, the wearer of teeth aligners wishes to remove them for brief periods of time (to eat or drink), he or she may easily do so.
3. Fewer Dental Visits:- Invisalign Clear Braces Straighten Teeth Faster. Invisalign can take from only one year, to a year and a half whether someone who wears metal braces might expect the treatment to take as long as 5 years.
4. Knowing What to Expect:- There are No Surprises with Invisalign Clear Braces. In considering Invisalign, dental patients undergo treatment planning that is fully computerized. Therefore, they know exactly what to expect and how long they will need the braces before they begin wearing them.
5. Prevent Other Dental Issues:- Using invisible aligners can also prevent other dental problems. Left untreated, gum disease can lead to tooth decay and tooth loss. Misaligned teeth and bad bite can lead to sleep disorders such as sleep apnea. By straightening your teeth with removable aligners that allow for excellent dental hygiene, you can prevent dental problems from getting worse.
6. Non-Invasive Scanning:-
When wearing traditional braces, you have appointments that require a thorough examination of your teeth. In most cases, this means placing a piece of plastic in your mouth and spreading your cheeks to allow for x-rays, recording, and scanning. These plastic pieces place metal brackets on your teeth to It is also used when wiring them together. When used for a long time, my cheeks become very sore and quite disturbing.
With advances in technology, Invisalign does not use invasive means to detail your teeth. Most treatments don't even require a traditional cast, which requires a sip of goo. Using 3D scanning technology, the dentist can make a full-body implant without the use of x-rays, impressions, or other invasive methods. , the tooth can be scanned completely. These scans are converted into 3D prints that professionals use to create custom aligners.
7. Boosts Self-Confidence:-
The most common reason to straighten teeth is for aesthetic value. Teeth are one of the first things he sees when he wakes up, and a smile is the first thing others notice. If you don't have confidence in your teeth and smile, you won't have confidence in yourself either. There is strong evidence that straightening your teeth can boost your self-esteem, especially in teenagers.
Another advantage of invisible aligners is that they are made of clear resin, so they match your teeth perfectly. This means they are virtually invisible, so many people don't even know they are straightening their teeth, unlike traditional braces. I am one of those people who are more likely to be bullied and harassed because of their braces. Invisible aligners allow you to straighten your teeth to boost your confidence and dental health while protecting you from being teased.
8. Eat Any Food and Drink:-
Traditional braces restrict what you can eat and drink, but with Invisalign, you can eat and drink anything. Avoid eating sticky, hard, or crunchy foods, including foods that require chewing, as metal clips can break and wires can bend. This does not include caramel, gum, nuts, popcorn, ice cream, corn or apples. Luckily, with removable aligners, you don't have to worry about what to eat.
The only food or drink you should take with your aligners is cold water. Otherwise, food particles can become lodged in the aligners, accumulating bacteria and plaque. Once removed, they should be stored safely in a travel container to avoid contamination or loss. After eating, consider brushing your teeth or rinsing with water before putting the aligners back on. This will prevent food particles from getting stuck between your teeth and the aligners.
9. Shorter Treatment Period:-
Most
traditional
braces
take
16-18
months.
Some
last
more
than
two
years.
You
have
to
wait
for
a
while

are
straightened.
Traditional
braces
don't
plan
your
movements
as
precisely
as
removable
aligners,
so
they
take
longer.
The
advantage
of
using
invisible
aligners
is
that
most
treatments
last
about
a
year.
Because
of
their
invisible
design,
most
people
won't
even
notice
you're
wearing
them. A
year
of
treatment
will
go
by
in
the
blink
of
an
eye.
Treatment
may
take
longer
if
you
don't
wear
your
aligners
as
often
or
correctly.
