Does Invisalign Work?

    PHOENIX, AZ, March 31, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- You have probably heard of Invisalign, the aesthetically pleasing solution for straightening teeth. Invisalign uses a series of clear plastic aligner trays to gently straighten your teeth instead of wire and bracket treatments that must be manually adjusted every few weeks. Invisalign has grown in popularity among older teens and adults because it is a less obtrusive and invasive method for straightening teeth. But does Invisalign actually work?

Yes. Invisalign works. In fact, Invisalign has shown to be just as effective as traditional wire and bracket braces in treating mild to moderate malocclusion. But more than an effective solution, Invisalign offers several benefits over traditional braces, and is increasing in its popularity with each passing year.

Benefits of Invisalign

As previously mentioned, Invisalign is much less visually obvious than wire and bracket, or even clear braces. The benefits don't stop there. When weighing Invisalign vs. traditional orthodontics, the benefits of Invisalign become increasingly clear. Some of these include:

- Aligners can be removed for significantly better flossing and brushing
- Because aligners can be removed, there are no dietary limitations
- Teeth are gently moved, making Invisalign more comfortable than braces
- Invisalign is safe for people who play sports
- Results may take only 12 months, as opposed to up to 36 months for traditional orthodontics

Faster, safer, and more aesthetically appealing, it's no wonder Invisalign has become the first choice for millions of Americans.

Invisalign offers several benefits, but it may not be the ideal treatment for every patient. If you have severe malocclusion, Invisalign may not be sufficient for completely straightening your teeth. In addition, like braces, it will be necessary that you continue to wear a retainer after you Invisalign treatment to help keep your teeth in place. However, these retainers are worn at night and should not interfere with your lifestyle choices.

When you visit a dentist to address malocclusion, he will carefully examine the state of your smile. If Invisalign is an option, he can provide you with further information about the benefits and potential limitations of this treatment. Working closely with an experienced dentist in your area, the treatment option that will best provide you with the results you deserve can be determined. Dr LeSueur and Dr. Dodaro are preferred providers for Invisalign which means they must maintain a high level of care and complete cases regularly and receive regular training to maintain their proficiency in new developments in the Invisalign product..
