Invisalign (Orthodontics)
Invisalign® Adults are having their teeth straightened in unprecedented numbers. Our dental patients are thrilled with the beautiful straight smile Invisalign gives them with "invisible orthodontics!" Invisalign can correct a wide variety of dental and orthodontic concerns and is more convenient, more comfortable and less expensive than metal braces. Invisalign is usually faster than traditional braces - some cases take only five months to correct fully. For most adults, Invisalign treatment is finished in less than a year. Invisalign is a great way to transform your smile without interfering with your day-to-day life. The McCarl dentists are certified Preferred Providers of Invisalign orthodontics.
If you are self-conscious about your smile or concerned about your dental and overall health from crowded or crooked teeth, Invisalign orthodontics is a great solution. The clear, comfortable aligner trays straighten teeth and correct your bite just like metal braces - only almost no one else can tell you are wearing them. Dental hygienists endorse Invisalign because their dental patients take the clear trays out when they eat then brush and floss before replacing them. This keeps the gums healthy during treatment and helps prevent decay and tooth discoloration - potential problems with traditional braces. Invisalign is a great way to straighten teeth while maintaining excellent oral hygiene habits.
Many adults notice that their teeth shift with time, crowding and getting crooked - especially the lower front teeth. Even people who had braces as teenagers often experience relapse causing crooked or crowded teeth. Overall gum and bone health are improved when teeth fit together with an ideal bite. When teeth are properly aligned, the gums fit tighter around the teeth, enhancing periodontal health. Crowded and crooked teeth are harder to brush and floss causing plaque buildup, tooth decay and periodontal disease. When left untreated, missing or widely spaced teeth can prevent normal chewing and increase the likelihood of periodontal disease and bone loss. Misaligned teeth and jaws can cause abnormal wear on teeth and painful jaw joint problems including TMJ syndrome.
Benefits of straight teeth include:
- Improved bite, chewing and wear patterns of the teeth
- Increased ability to clean the teeth
- Improved long-term health of gums and teeth
- A more attractive smile
There are advantages to selecting an Invisalign dentist who is also experienced in other forms of cosmetic dentistry. McCarl dentists have comprehensive dental training and address multiple dental concerns with a wide range of dental solutions that are specific to each dental patient’s unique needs and objectives.
