Since Invisalign was implemented, millions of people have used the clear aligners to achieve undeniable results. If you’re interested in orthodontic treatments like clear aligners, here is what you need to know about the benefits they can bring.
Nearly Invisible
As the name would suggest, clear aligners are all but undetectable to everyone around you. This means that you can continue smiling throughout treatment without worrying about flashing a mouthful of metal. The appearance of traditional dental braces is one of the top concerns among patients in need of teeth straightening, and fortunately, clear aligners help alleviate the issue. This can be especially helpful for older patients who may not want their braces affecting their professional appearance or for self-conscious kids and teens.Time Saving
With clear aligners, you can also cut down on visits to your orthodontist, allowing you to continue living life without frequent interruptions for appointments. While younger kids may appreciate getting out of school for frequent check-ups, adults with careers can appreciate the leeway. Similarly, the total treatment time for clear aligners is usually much less than traditional dental braces. This means you can start enjoying your new smile faster, and you won’t have to worry about years of tightenings, trials, and errors. At Evenly, we offer remote treatment monitoring through a smart phone app, so you can complete your whole treatment from the comfort of your home if you'd like. Our app reports your progress to us, and we are able to address any concerns head-on, which makes treatment faster.No Diet Limitations
With traditional dental braces there are limitations on what you can eat as some foods can get stuck in braces or otherwise damage them. With clear aligners, all you need to do is remove them before you eat and put them back in when you’re done (after giving them a rinse of course.) Because of this, clear aligners allow you much more freedom to continue eating what you want, something that most everyone can agree is an important benefit.Comfort
Dental braces can be uncomfortable and sometimes even painful. Couple this with the long treatment times and it can be a negative experience for many people. However, clear aligners remove this discomfort, and most people even forget that they’re wearing them once they get used to them! This can help make the treatment more enjoyable, and it can also make you more likely to complete the treatment without throwing in the towel early.Better Oral Health
Both during and after treatment clear aligners have an edge over dental braces when it comes to providing a healthy mouth. During treatment, it is easier to keep your teeth clean, and after you can expect better health due to eliminated crowding and gaps.Now that you know the top five benefits of using clear aligners, it’s time to speak with your orthodontist to see if the option is right for you. Clear aligners are a great solution for the most common types of dental misalignment.
