Treatment

Invisalign has improved its treatment plans significantly in recent years. There are express treatments available (called Invisalign Express) which give patients a new aligner each week. This can reduce the time necessary to properly align your teeth by up to 50%.

There are also specific treatments available for adolescents called “Invisalign Teen”. Invisalign Teen is meant to accommodate younger people with different needs. For instance, Invisalign Teen may come with extra tabs to accommodate the growth of wisdom teeth, blue dots that fade to indicate the aligner needs to be replaced, and extra aligners in case your teen misplaces them, or damages them during sports.

Benefits of Invisalign

There are many benefits of receiving Invisalign treatments. All the benefits which patients get from traditional benefits are enjoyed by Invisalign patients: straight teeth, better chewing, better enunciation, better overall oral health, etc. In addition to these benefits, Invisalign patients tend to feel much more confident about their teeth during the treatment process. Invisalign is meant to be discreet, it doesn’t attract unwanted attention. Traditional braces may cause irritation and discomfort because of it’s bulky, metal framework. Invisalign is smooth and much more comfortable to wear. Lastly, Invisalign can be removed easily to brush your teeth, eat your food, or temporarily for special occasions.

HOW TO I CARE FOR Y TEETH?

To clean your dentures, you should use a toothbrush specially designed for dentures and a denture cleaner. Regular toothpaste should not be used, because it may be too abrasive for dentures. After removing and cleaning the prosthesis, rinse it and submerge it in a denture-cleaning solution. If you wear a partial denture, make certain when you floss and brush your natural teeth that you take special care to clean the area around the clasps, as trapped food particles, combined with salivary acids and bacteria, may cause these abutment teeth to be more susceptible to decay. Even with full dentures, you need to care for your mouth. Each morning, brush your gums, tongue and palate with a soft-bristled brush before you put in your dentures.

Using a denture adhesive may make the fit worse! Check with us before routinely using any denture adhesive material.
