Custom dictates that on April 1st the jokes should really end around noon, lest you look the fool. But what if you kept a trick going for days, weeks or even months? Is it even a trick of you never get the big reveal? For many, the thought of dental braces are no laughing matter. Thankfully, with the Invisalign ‘Invisible’ brace, no one need ever be the wiser.
Benefits are not just cosmetic
Invisalign are virtually unnoticeable clear braces which can help one achieve a naturally straight smile without any apparent change in appearance. Aside from the ability to align teeth incognito, Invisalign can also provide a more comfortable experience than metal braces, which can inflame and irritate the gums. They are also more convenient, allowing one to take them out before eating and subsequently bypassing the age old complaint of getting food trapped between wire and elastic. The ability to remove Invisalign also helps with maintaining oral hygiene during treatment, something which can be neglected with metal braces and lead to future problems.
Suitability
For most orthodontic problems for patients in Liverpool, Invisalign braces are perfectly suited. In more severe cases however, other treatment may be deemed more effective. A patient’s suitability will easily be assessed during the initial consultation.
Standard procedure (in a nutshell)
Following the consultation the patient, if deemed suitable, would have a mould of their mouth taken, as well as several photographs. These would then be turned into a 3D model of their mouth, from which a simulation of their desired mouth position can be constructed. Aligners will be produced based on this model which will be changed every two weeks in order to gradually move their teeth to where they want them to be.
