When most people think of teeth straightening, they picture bulky metal braces. Luckily, though, there are now more discreet ways to achieve a beautifully straight smile.
Here at Harley Street Dental Clinic, we are committed to helping you create your perfect smile with Invisalign. Invisalign is a clinically proven, innovative and virtually invisible way to achieve straight teeth without metal or wires.
How does it work?
Invisalign is one of our most aesthetically pleasing treatment options. As a certified Invisalign provider, we supply our patients with a series of custom-made, removable, transparent aligners, which need to be changed every two weeks. The aligners are designed to fit your teeth perfectly and gradually move them into place. Because Invisalign is transparent, chances are that most people won’t even know you are undergoing teeth straightening treatment.
Who is Invisalign for?
Invisalign is for anybody who is keen on keeping their teeth straightening private. While many are happy with conventional braces, some people are too self-conscious about them and put off treatment indefinitely.
This is where Invisalign comes in handy. At Harley Street, Invisalign is used to treat a wide range of dental problems, including misaligned, gapped and overcrowded teeth, and also overbites, underbites and crossbites. Invisalign can also treat moderate jaw problems.
However, Invisalign is not suitable for everyone. It is not a suitable treatment for children, because it is only appropriate for patients with fully grown teeth I.e.older teenagers and adults.
Benefits of Invisalign
Invisalign aligners are removable, therefore there are no restrictions on what you can eat or drink. This also means that you can brush and floss your teeth as you normally would, so it’s easy to keep a good dental hygiene routine. Plus, unlike metal braces, Invisalign aligners do not require frequent adjustments. You will only need to visit your dentist in Harley Street every eight to 12 weeks, saving you valuable time.
Finally, Invisalign aligners are very comfortable because they are custom-made to fit your teeth perfectly. Whereas metal braces with protruding arch wires can cause injury to your mouth and gums, Invisalign is perfectly safe for your mouth since it is made of smooth plastic.
