During orthodontic treatment, your teeth are gradually moved into proper positions so that you can smile with more confidence. When you depend on fixed metal braces to make adjustments, you will have one appliance that remains in place throughout your treatment. However, patients who choose Invisalign can make corrections with a series of aligners that are easy to remove. This can give you a greater sense of control over your treatment, and it can make daily life during your adjustment period easier. Our Virginia Beach, VA dentist’s office can help you understand if Invisalign is right for you, and to learn more about what these aligners can do to improve your appearance and oral health.
Invisalign Helps People Resolve Their Issues With Malocclusion
Malocclusion affects many people, but while most people have this issue addressed during childhood, it often affects adults. This can be because they never had orthodontic treatment, or because their teeth shifted after past work. Treatment can offer more than just cosmetic improvements. By fixing the way your teeth are aligned, you can improve your bite function, and you can make oral hygiene efforts more effective. By pursuing treatment with Invisalign over traditional metal braces, you can see these benefits while also having access to removable, hard-to-see appliances.
How Your Aligners Make Your Smile Progressively Straighter
We provide sets of clear aligners in order to treat your issues with malocclusion. Your set will be designed after evaluating your smile and assessing your current alignment issues. You will wear each one for a designated time, keeping them in place between twenty and twenty-three hours each day to stay on track. Once you are ready, you will move on to the next one and further move teeth into position. Your freedom to remove your aligners will make it easier for you to go about your typical day, as you will not have to worry about their interference when you clean your teeth or eat.
Orthodontic Treatment Can Help With More Than Just Cosmetic Issues
While Invisalign helps patients show off straighter, more attractive smiles, they also help with oral health concerns. Malocclusion can actually stop you from maintaining a natural, comfortable bite movement. Because of this, you can be more vulnerable to TMJ disorder, and you can wear down certain teeth prematurely through overuse. With straightened teeth, you can have an easier time maintaining a comfortable dental function.
