Barely There Braces, how Invisalign Scottsdale can Help Your Smile

On average, six out of ten people have had or are in need of braces. Braces are used to help straighten teeth in the mouth. Traditional braces can be painful, unsightly, and take a long time to fix your teeth. They can also make it harder to brush and floss, increasing the risk of cavities. Invisalign braces are a fairly new practice and are quickly gaining popularity because of how they look.

Invisalign Scottsdale can help you to feel better about your smile while efficiently straightening your teeth.

What is Invisalign?

Invisalign Scottsdale is a type of brace. They are clear, hard plastic moldings, known as aligners, that fit around your teeth, similar to how a mouth guard would. Because of the clear aligners, the braces are barely noticeable to the extent that people may not even realize you are wearing them. Unlike regular braces, these can be removed for eating sticky or crunchy foods and brushing and flossing. In addition, Invisalign can also straighten your teeth in a fraction of the time that traditional braces can.

What should I expect when getting Invisalign?

Invisalign will be created specifically for your mouth to fix your problem areas. You will be prescribed aligners that you will wear for two weeks at a time. After the two weeks, you will take out the old aligners and replace them with new ones. Each set of aligners is designed a little differently to adapt to your slowly shifting teeth. Unlike, traditional braces, Invislaign Scottsdale is non intrusive and painless for the patient.
