How can you choose the right braces for you? Here are ten facts about Invisalign that you should be aware of to select your orthodontic treatment wisely.
Fact- 1: Regular braces are typically less expensive than Invisalign braces. This is because Invisalign’s laboratory fees are more than those for conventional braces, and these charges are straight to the producer, Align Technology.
Fact- 2: The discomfort and anguish of Invisalign braces are the same as those of metal braces. Because they are made to exert consistent pressure on your teeth to maximize movement, all braces are uncomfortable.
Fact-3: Whether you select Invisalign or conventional braces, treatment and correction of your teeth often take the same time.
Fact- 4:Following Invisalign treatment, many patients need retainers to prevent the teeth from sliding back to their pre-treatment positions.
Fact- 5:A dentist or orthodontist who has received training in Invisalign treatment is more likely to get positive results with this technique.
Fact- 6:Because the Invisalign aligner trays are removable, you have more freedom to eat and drink anything you want and to brush and floss your teeth as usual.
Fact- 7:With Invisalign treatment, no wires or metal brackets are required, and this eliminates the requirement for these modifications during your appointment visits.
Fact- 8: The force and time of the force application are both under control with Invisalign braces. Only a few teeth are relocated at a time throughout each treatment step. These movements are chosen by your orthodontist when they create your individualized treatment plan.
Fact – 9: The thermoplastic substance used to make Invisalign aligners gives them a similar appearance to whitening trays for teeth. Your aligners are created to order specifically to move your teeth in the order recommended by your dentist.
Fact- 10: You must wear your Invisalign aligners for 20 to 22 hours daily, and the aligners must be worn for the recommended time to provide the desired outcomes.
