How Invisalign enhances the appearance of your teeth

Invisalign is a one-in-a-million tooth-alignment system that is a preferable alternative to traditional braces when you are concerned about the alignment of your teeth. The system utilizes custom-made, clear aligners that fit comfortably over your teeth. Over time, the aligners gradually move your teeth into their correct position, enhancing your smile.

The SmartTrack technology allows your doctor to predict the exact movement of the teeth. The Invisalign system addresses several issues, including overcrowding, gaps, underbites, crossbites, and overbites. Considering that they are clear, it is hard to notice their existence, and you can easily remove them during meals or when brushing or flossing your teeth. Unlike braces, aligners don’t require brackets or metal wires, making them more snugly.

The efficacy of Invisalign

You may have loved ones who have greatly benefited from Invisalign, but it is crucial to dig deeper than the anecdotal evidence. Currently, there is not enough research that backs up the effectiveness of aligners. However, the available studies assert that Invisalign is a more practical choice than other forms of aligners. Additionally, the new version that the manufacturer started developing in 2010 enhances its effectiveness, guaranteeing significant improvements in the appearance of the wearer’s teeth. You may need to keep the aligners on daily and only remove them during meals or brushing. It is also essential to replace the aligners every two weeks to properly shift your teeth. After 12 months of being loyal to their doctors’ instructions, most people start noticing the desired results. Dr. Schraner can estimate how long you need to wear the aligners, depending on your needs.
