Have you noticed more of your co-workers wearing Invisalign? Perhaps your teen mentioned that their friends are all getting the clear braces. What makes these teeth-straightening treatments so popular in the Raleigh, NC area?
Keep Your Smile During Treatment
Perhaps the most common reason patients give for opting for Invisalign treatments is that the clear aligners are much less noticeable than traditional metal braces. Teens and adults keep their confidence while undergoing treatment. Many friends and co-workers may not notice the Invisalign trays during casual conversation.
Eat All Your Favorite Foods
Since you can remove the trays at any time, you are still free to indulge in a giant bowl of popcorn, savor a sticky caramel, or savor a giant steak. Unlike metal braces with wires that trap food, you can eat what you like, brush your teeth, and put the trays back on without any problem.
Spend Less Time in the Orthodontist’s Chair
Back in the day, if you signed up for braces, you would have to visit the orthodontist every other week for adjustments or sometimes repairs to the equipment. Treatment would continue for some patients for years. Most clients who choose Invisalign only need to visit the orthodontist every other month for a quick check.There are no painful visits where the braces are tightened.
Look Your Best for Major Life Events
Is it time for graduation? There may be a wedding in your near future. With Invisalign, you are able to remove the trays for the photographer and see nothing but your beautiful smile when you scroll through pics of the big day. Instead of recalling the summer you spent with the aligners, you will remember the fun and joy of a singular social event. It’s also a great option for professionals when it’s time to make the next launch video or while shaking hands with visiting dignitaries.
Treatments that Work for Kids
Are you concerned about your young child’s smile as their baby teeth move out for permanent ones? Invisalign can be prescribed for patients as yound as age seven, which is about the time to see an orthodontist. The trays are easy for them to put in and take out. If one gets damaged, you only need to make a phone call to get it replaced. Also, early intervention can reduce the need for further treatment as they age.
