Benefits of Straight Teeth

Orthodontic treatments such as Invisalign aligners are important for achieving and maintaining straight teeth, improving oral health, and enhancing overall well-being. Straight teeth offer several benefits beyond aesthetic appeal, including:

  • Improved Oral Health: Straight teeth are easier to clean and maintain compared to crooked teeth. Proper alignment reduces the chances of food particles getting trapped between teeth, leading to plaque buildup and, eventually, tooth decay and gum disease.
  • Enhanced Chewing and Digestion: Properly aligned teeth help with efficient chewing, which aids in better digestion. This can contribute to overall better nutrition and health.
  • Improved Jaw Alignment: Straight teeth can contribute to better jaw alignment, reducing strain on the jaw muscles and potentially alleviating issues such as TMJ disorders.
  • Boosted Self-Confidence: Straight teeth have significant aesthetic benefits. They can enhance your smile, leading to increased self-esteem and confidence in social and professional situations.
  • Speech Improvement: Misaligned teeth can affect speech patterns and pronunciation, while straight teeth can improve speech clarity and articulation.

What Are Invisalign Aligners?

Invisalign aligners are custom-made, clear plastic trays that discreetly straighten your teeth. They can be easily removed for cleaning, maintaining oral hygiene, and for the convenience of eating without restrictions. Using gentle, controlled force, our aligners gradually shift your teeth into their desired positions over time. Each set is typically worn for at least 22 hours daily over two weeks to achieve your desired results.

This orthodontic option is popular for its comfort and nearly invisible appearance, offering an alternative to traditional braces for teens and adults seeking a more flexible and aesthetically pleasing treatment.

What Do Invisalign Aligners Treat?

Our dentist recognizes the effectiveness of teeth aligners for orthodontic care. We have the experience to treat teens and adults with mild to moderate orthodontic concerns, including:

  • Crowded Teeth: When there isn't enough space in your jaw for all teeth to fit comfortably, they can overlap or become crooked. Our Invisalign aligners can gently shift your crowded teeth into a more aligned position.
  • Spacing Issues: Gaps between your teeth can occur due to missing teeth or natural spacing discrepancies. We use our aligners to close small to moderate gaps between your teeth by moving them closer together.
  • Overbite: An overbite occurs when the upper front teeth overlap significantly over the lower front teeth. Teeth aligners can help adjust the alignment of the teeth to reduce the severity of the overbite.
  • Underbite: An underbite happens when the lower front teeth protrude past the upper front teeth. Invisalign treatment can gradually move the lower teeth back, or the upper teeth forward to correct the underbite.
  • Crossbite: A crossbite occurs when one or more teeth are misaligned horizontally. Our aligners can correct crossbites by moving the affected teeth into proper alignment.
  • Open Bite: An open bite is when some teeth do not contact opposing teeth when the mouth is closed. Invisalign aligners can help close an open bite by moving the teeth into proper alignment.

Our Invisalign Treatment Process

We begin with a comprehensive consultation with our dentist to evaluate your teeth and discuss your smile goals. If you qualify for Invisalign treatment, we'll take digital impressions of your teeth to create detailed 3D models of your teeth and gums. These models will be sent to a trusted lab where your custom aligners will be created. You'll return to our office to receive several weeks' worth of aligners and have our dentist monitor your progress regularly throughout your treatment. After your treatment, we'll provide an in-house retainer to help preserve your newly aligned smile.

We integrate supported myofunctional therapy into our Invisalign treatment to enhance results by focusing on oral muscle function and habits. This therapy includes exercises and techniques to improve your tongue posture, swallowing patterns, and overall coordination of oral muscles. By fostering proper alignment and function of these muscles, supported myofunctional therapy helps you achieve more effective and lasting outcomes with Invisalign aligners, benefiting your appearance and oral health.

Invisalign Aligners FAQs

We understand you may have questions regarding Invisalign treatment. Our experienced team has the knowledge to answer your questions and provide comfort throughout your teeth-aligning journey. Common questions regarding Invisalign aligners are:

How long does Invisalign treatment take?

The length of Invisalign treatment varies based on your case. Most mild to moderate cases are completed within 6-18 months.

Invisalign aligners can become stained if not properly cared for. It's important to clean them regularly and avoid drinking colored beverages such as coffee, tea, or red wine while wearing them.

Invisalign aligners should be cleaned daily using a soft toothbrush and clear antibacterial soap, or with specialized Invisalign aligner cleaning crystals. Avoid using hot water, as it can warp the aligners.
