Why more Australians are choosing a discreet and comfortable way to straighten their smile
Clear braces or Invisalign are more common procedures for teeth straightening, especially for those who want a less conspicuous way of beautifying their smile. Here are some key benefits of Invisalign or clear braces treatment at Dandenong Smile Health, offered at our centrally located dental clinic in Dandenong.
1. Aesthetically Discreet
Invisible Appearance: The clear transparent aligners are much less noticeable compared to traditional metal braces. This is ideal for those who have low self-esteem in wearing braces, especially working individuals and adults.
2. Removable
Convenience: You can take Invisalign aligners out for meals, beverages, and tooth brushing, providing you with more freedom and comfort than older-style braces, which can be eating- or cleaning-difficult.
3. Better Oral Hygiene: Since you can take the aligners out, you can brush and floss your teeth as usual, reducing the chance of plaque developing and cavities are more probable with older-style braces.
4. Comfortable
No Metal Wires: Unlike metal braces, which tend to rub against the inside of your mouth, Invisalign is made of smooth plastic that will not easily cause sores or irritation.
Quick Note: Custom Fit: Aligners are designed to fit your teeth snugly and comfortably.
5. Fewer Office Visits
Less Frequent Check-ups: Invisalign typically requires fewer visits to the orthodontist for adjustments since you’ll be given a series of aligners to change at home. This can save time and make the treatment process more convenient.
6. Predictable Results
Digital Treatment Plan: Invisalign leverages the assistance of extremely sophisticated 3D imaging technology to create a very detailed treatment plan. This allows you to see what your teeth will look like after the treatment has been conducted prior to starting treatment, and it provides you with an exact idea of what to expect.
7. Improved Speech and Function
Minimal Speech Interference: Since the aligners are thin and snug, they won’t interfere with speech nearly as much as metal braces would.
8. No Dietary Restrictions: Since the aligners can be temporarily removed, you can enjoy all your favourite foods without worrying about damaging your braces, unlike metal braces where you must avoid some foods (e.g., sticky, hard, or chewy foods).
9. Helps with Some Bite Issues
Effective for Mild to Moderate Misalignments: Invisalign is highly effective in treating mild to moderate misalignments like overbites, underbites, crowding, and spacing. In a few cases, it can even correct more complex dental problems.
10. Increased Confidence
Discreet and Comfortable: The union of clear aligners with a more comfortable experience can make you feel more confident during the process, especially compared to the embarrassment some people have with traditional metal braces.
11. Less Risk of Staining
No Staining or Discoloration: Unlike metal braces that can, occasionally, cause staining or discoloration since food particles get trapped around the brackets, Invisalign aligners are removable and washable, reducing stains.
12. Fewer Complications
Less Opportunity for Emergency Visits: Traditional braces tend to cause issues such as loose wires or broken brackets, resulting in emergency orthodontist visits. This does not happen with Invisalign because the aligners are firm plastic and get replaced whenever needed. Therefore, opportunities for such issues are less.
13. No Emergency Visits
No Wires or Brackets to Break: When you have regular braces, if a bracket or wire comes loose, it can be very painful and requires an emergency trip to the orthodontist. Since Invisalign aligners are simply exchanged every several weeks, this is not a problem.
