One of the most important things in life is having confidence in our teeth and our smile. Decades ago, there was only a single way to straighten crooked teeth and that was those metal braces that were dreaded by so many. They are still an option, but not the only one. Braces use wires to move your teeth slowly over time. Aligners, such as Invisalign, are a whole new way of straightening your teeth. They are transparent as well so they are almost invisible and are individually made for your teeth.
They are just as effective as Conventional Braces
Your dentist can use Invisalign aligners to treat over and under bites, gapping between your teeth, crooked and overcrowded teeth. Every few weeks you will be fitted for a new aligner in order to keep moving your teeth closer to where they need to end up being. Since they are made of an acrylic or plastic material, there are no wires to hurt.
You will be Less Self Conscious and Eat Whatever You Want
Nobody wants to be the one to be called “Brace Face” or Metal Mouth.” The thought of having those metal braces in their mouth can cause severe anxiety in some people. They get scared of the tales they have heard of pain from metal braces and of letting anyone see them with their mouth full of that metal gear. Another benefit of Invisalign is being able to eat things like popcorn, nuts and the like. There are many foods that you are prohibited from eating when you were metal braces.
The Practice of Orthodontics
The practice of orthodontics was primarily invented to help advance oral health. This is not all just about a beautiful smile; it is also about better chewing and less pain. Thinking about Invisalign in Salinas,
