Reasons Invisalign Is A Worthy Investment

Invisalign is an orthodontic treatment to straighten teeth and correct bite issues, unlike traditional metal braces, which use brackets and wires to apply pressure to the teeth. South Bay Invisalign® is made of a clear, thermoplastic material virtually invisible when worn.

The Invisalign treatment process typically involves the following steps:

  • Consultation: The first step is to schedule a consultation with an Invisalign provider. The provider will examine your teeth, discuss your treatment goals, and determine if Invisalign is a good option.
  • Treatment planning: If Invisalign is recommended, the provider will take digital impressions of your teeth and use specialized software to create a customized treatment plan. The plan will show how your teeth will move over time and how long your treatment is expected to take.
  • Aligner production: A series of custom-made aligners will be created for you based on your treatment plan. You will typically wear each set of aligners for about two weeks before switching to the next set.
  • Treatment: During treatment, you will wear your aligners for at least 20-22 hours per day, removing them to eat, drink, brush, and floss. Your provider will schedule regular checkups to monitor your progress and give you new aligners as needed.
  • Retention: After completing your Invisalign treatment, you will need to wear a retainer to help maintain your new smile. Your provider will recommend the best type of retainer for your individual needs.

After completing your Invisalign treatment, it is recommended to follow the aftercare instructions provided by your Invisalign provider to maintain the results of your treatment and ensure good oral health.

Reasons to invest in Invisalign

There are several reasons why Invisalign can be a worthy investment for people looking to straighten their teeth and improve their smile. Here are some of the main reasons:

  • Discreet appearance: The clear aligners’ near-invisibility when worn is one of Invisalign’s most noticeable advantages, making it a great choice for people who want straight teeth without wearing traditional braces.
  • Comfort: Invisalign aligners are made of a smooth, comfortable material that is less likely to irritate the gums and soft tissues of the mouth than traditional braces.
  • Convenience: Invisalign aligners are removable, so you can take them out to eat, drink, brush, and floss. This can make it easier to maintain good oral hygiene during treatment and allow you to eat the foods you enjoy without worrying about damaging your braces.
  • Customized treatment: Invisalign treatment is customized to each patient’s needs and goals, using digital technology to create a personalized treatment plan showing how the teeth will move over time. This can help ensure more accurate and predictable results.
  • Shorter treatment time: In some cases, Invisalign treatment can be completed more quickly than traditional braces, depending on the individual case. This can benefit people who want to achieve a straighter smile quickly.
