When someone asks about Invisalign treatment, are they only looking into cosmetic treatment, or is there something more that corrective work can do for them? You should know that in addition to improving your smile, treatment with clear aligners can have oral health benefits. Fixing problems with overlapping teeth can make your oral hygiene routine more effective, while straightening your smile can also help you improve your bite function. At our Virginia Beach, VA dentist’s office, we are happy to meet with patients who want to do something about malocclusion for their oral health and appearance. Because we offer treatment with Invisalign, we can make positive changes with appliances that are difficult to see and easy for you to remove!
Misaligned Teeth Can Make Your Oral Health Harder To Maintain
Even minor problems with the way your teeth are spaced can be difficult to ignore. Your misalignment can leave you with teeth that appear crowded, cause some to appear recessed or to “jut” forward, or leave you with extra space between teeth that will make you unhappy with your appearance. What you should know is that in addition to impacting your appearance, these problems can make it harder for you to fully clean your teeth, and they may also stop you from maintaining a natural, even bite. By addressing these issues, you can improve your smile as well as the quality of your oral health.
Beginning Treatment With Invisalign Aligners
Invisalign aligners are custom-made appliances that are prepared with the specific goal of straightening your teeth. At the time you receive these appliances, you will begin wearing them throughout the course of each day. At designated times, you will move from one to the next in order to keep up with the pace of your corrective work. Because you can remove your aligners on your own, you will not have to worry about them interfering with your oral hygiene routine, or with your ability to eat what you want.
Life After You Complete Your Treatment
The cosmetic benefits of fixing poorly aligned teeth can be exciting to share with the world. At the end of your treatment, you can be impressed at how a more symmetrical smile changes your overall appearance, something that can fill you with more confidence. You can also be excited to enjoy better bite function, which reduces your likelihood of suffering aches and pains from uneven jaw movement. With overlapping teeth straightened, you can even have an easier time preventing difficulties with tartar buildup and other oral health concerns.
