Invisalign has survived the test of time and is one of the most popular discreet teeth straightening methods available in dentistry. But as much as we’d like it to be a treatment for everyone, Invisalign has a few limitations.
At Harley Street Dental Clinic, Invisalign in Harley Street is ideal for patients who wish to fix their smile without advertising it. This subtle but effective teeth straightening treatment consists of a series of removable aligners that push rather than pull your teeth into alignment. Invisalign aligners are comfortable to wear and easy to clean, since they can be removed.
Determining if Invisalign is the right option
In order to see whether Invisalign in Harley Street is for you, you have 2 options. You can either take the compatibility test on the official website of Invisalign or arrange a consultation appointment with us. In any case, we will need to examine your teeth thoroughly before we decide whether this treatment is a good match for your teeth and dental problems.
To have a better idea of Invisalign in Harley Street and how it can help you can ask yourself any of the following questions:
How old are you?
Invisalign is age-specific and if you are too young you won’t make a good candidate because your teeth are still growing. Older teenagers can have Invisalign and there’s a special type of Invisalign created just for them – Invisalign Teen.
How severe are your dental problems?
Your dental condition is the most important criterion in determining whether Invisalign in Harley Street is the right treatment for you. Invisalign can address many dental problems – including misaligned teeth and bite problems – as long as they are moderate. If you suffer from serious dental problems such as heavily crooked, twisted or rotated teeth, your dentist will suggest an alternative teeth-straightening method. For instance, many patients start with conventional braces and slowly move into Invisalign as their teeth are progressively straightened.
Are you responsible?
Invisalign is a relatively easy treatment but requires a high degree of responsibility. You can’t afford to lose your aligners or not wear them for the designated period of time. If you are not dedicated to your treatment, it won’t work.
