Anybody who has ever struggled with the daily nightmare of braces knows that straightening teeth is no walk in the park. However, the new treatment Invisalign couldn't make it any easier. This treatment is much better than traditional metal braces, and here are just 10 reasons why.
1. They're Invisible. Well,
they're not exactly invisible, but they're pretty tough to see unless you're starring right into somebody's mouth. This is because the aligners use small, thin bands that are designed to be barely visible.
2. Faster Than Braces. Invisalign takes at least 6 months for most people. It varies from person to person depending on the severity of the problem. But even at its longest, it beats the heck out of braces, which take up to 3 years.
3. No Pain. If you've ever been through the torture of having braces adjusted, you'll really appreciate this fact. With these aligners, all you have to do it switch them out every two weeks with the help of your orthodontist.
4. Custom Fit To Your Mouth. With metal braces, you get the feeling that they're forcing your teeth into shape. Invisalign aligners, on the other hand, are custom designed to fit right in your mouth and work their magic.
5. Know Exactly What To Expect. At the beginning of your Invisalign treatment, the orthodontist will produce a computer image of exactly what your teeth will look like when it's through. You can be sure that you know what the result will be.
6. Easy To Clean. Invisalign aligners can be taken out so that you can clean. One of the worst things about metal braces was the fact that you could never clean completely around them, so that once you got them taken off, you had a plaque nightmare.
7. No Effect On Speech. Another terrible thing about metal braces is that sometimes you just couldn't talk right with them in. They always hampered your natural speech in some way. The aligners used in this treatment don't do this at all.
8. It Saves Your Gums Too. This treatment has a major cosmetic benefit, but it also has health benefits too. One of them is that you'll be better able to brush your teeth and gums when everything is straight like it should be. Crooked teeth get in the way and prevent proper brushing.
9. Healthy Bites. With straightened teeth, you'll also have healthier bites, which means that your teeth won't wear down as quickly. This is another health risk posed by crooked or misaligned teeth.
10. The Price. The price is so low that anybody can afford to get Invisalign treatment. Well, okay, that's not exactly true, but let's just say that it's well worth the price anyway. Metal braces are actually cheaper, but they just don't get the same results. If you really want to get your teeth straightened, why not spend the money and get it done right?
We could add one more benefit that's related to all of these - Since Invisalign makes straightening teeth easier, faster and less painful, that means that more people can finally realize their dreams of having a straight, perfect smile. It's helping the world smile more!
