Did you miss out on the opportunity to have your teeth straightened as a child? Or did you have braces as a teenager but now have crooked teeth as an adult? Perhaps you’ve never considered straightening your teeth, but the flaw is holding you back and ruining your polished appearance.
Whatever the reason, if you’re looking for convenient adult orthodontic treatment in Houston or Dallas, Texas, consider Invisalign clear braces! You can achieve your goal of a beautifully balanced and uniform smile with clear aligners while minimizing the impact on your comfort and lifestyle.
The Advantages of Having a Straighter Smile with Invisalign
Even if the aesthetics of crooked teeth don’t bother you, there are a variety of reasons to consider orthodontics such as Invisalign.
Gingivitis, periodontal disease, bad breath, tooth wear and damage, and jaw joint problems, including TMJ, can all be caused by dental malocclusion (crooked teeth or a poor bite). You may even experience psychological and social issues as a result of how others perceive tooth loss.
Why Do So Many Adults Opt for Clear Aligner Therapy?
Until Invisalign came along 20 years ago, the only option for straightening crooked teeth was metal brackets and wires, which most adults could not afford. Instead, they simply did not receive treatment.
Adult orthodontics treatment with Invisalign has changed the way dentists and patients think about it. Invisalign uses clear, comfortable plastic aligners rather than brackets and wires attached to your teeth.
A Metal-Free grin
The most obvious advantage is that you can straighten your teeth without everyone knowing. When worn, the crystal-clear aligners fit snugly over your teeth and are virtually invisible.
Clear Aligners That Are Comfortable
Another advantage of Invisalign treatment is its comfort. Because there is no metal in your mouth, you will not experience the irritation or soreness that brackets and wires can cause. Many patients don’t even realize they’re wearing aligners!
Simple and Convenient Orthodontic Treatment
As an adult with a hectic schedule, you’ll appreciate the ease of straightening your teeth with Invisalign. Clear aligners, unlike metal braces, are removable. There are no food restrictions because they can be taken out for meals, and they can easily brush and floss.
What Is Invisalign Treatment Like?
To determine if you are a good candidate for clear aligners, the specialists at Clear Smiles will conduct a thorough examination. These are some of the issues that Invisalign can help you with.
- Teeth that are crooked
- Teeth crowding
- Teeth that have rotated
- Large gaps and spacing problems
- Overbites/Underbites
Your Clear Smiles team will plan your case and collaborate with an Invisalign lab to create all of the aligners you’ll need to straighten your teeth.
Wear each set for 1-2 weeks, then switch to the next, repeating the process until you’ve worn all of your aligners and your treatment is finished!
You’ll see us every 8-10 weeks to check on your progress and get your next set of aligners. You will repeat these steps until you have worn all your aligners and finished your treatment.
