There are definite advantages and disadvantages with Invisalign in Harley Street that we want you to know about so that you can make an informed decision as to whether this popular treatment is right for you.
There is a lot of positive press regarding Invisalign in Harley Street because millions of people worldwide have found this treatment to be a brilliant opportunity for them to conveniently and comfortably straighten their teeth.
The fact that they are clear, removable aligners means that professional, working adults and teenagers alike can enjoy the control that they have in straightening their teeth, practically in the comfort of their own home. Many people do not have the time to spend in the dental practice every few weeks, having their traditional braces tightened.
If you don’t have a severe teeth or jaw misalignment, then perhaps the effectiveness of traditional braces is essentially wasted on you. By streamlining the procedure, as is done with Invisalign in Harley Street, you can enjoy all the benefits that straight teeth can offer in a way that suits your lifestyle and needs.
But what about the disadvantages?
However, if you are not completely committed to straightening your teeth, you might find that Invisalign in Harley Street is a difficult treatment plan to stick with. You need to remove your aligners whenever you eat, an advantage for most people because you are free to eat what you want.
You do need to brush your teeth before replacing your aligners however and the constant removal, replacing and brushing can get tedious for those people who enjoy snacking.
In addition, if you do not wear your aligners for around 22 hours every day, then the results that are discussed with you during your initial consultation may be unattainable. These serious consequences need to be considered before you sign up to this treatment because we are not comfortable with allowing you to waste the investment of your time and money.
How about the results
We will discuss with you every option that is available to make sure that you are getting the best results when straightening your teeth. If we suggest a removable aligner, then you are suitable for this treatment and can expect to receive great results at the end of the treatment.
You will need to wear a retainer for some time to maintain your straightened smile. This is a general rule for anyone who has their teeth straightened.
This is because the ligaments that hold your teeth in position need to relax into their new form, which takes time. If you neglect to wear your retainer, your teeth are likely to shift back into their original position as the ligaments revert back.
We offer realistic results and make sure that you are aware of the procedure and potential complications that can exist for your teeth straightening journey. We seek to make it as straightforward and easy as possible, but we do need to work together to ensure that we achieve something that you are over the moon about.
Our aim is for you to have a smile that you love, that is healthy and that can stay with you for life.
