There is a solution to having straighter teeth without having to wear metal braces.

 

Known as invisible orthodontics, Invisalign® offers you the choice of wearing a clear and removable appliance while straightening and aligning your teeth.

 

This is often a favourable option for adults who have professional careers and don't feel comfortable wearing unsightly 'train track' braces for months on end. The technology behind Invisalign® is highly advanced and often gives patients a much shorter treatment time, depending on their individual cases.

 

Benefits of this type of treatment include having teeth straightened in a generally shortened period of time, straighter teeth and alignment of your top and bottom jaws. You can also enjoy the flexibility of your braces being hidden from an untrained eye, making you feel less self-conscious when socialising or speaking in public. With removable devices you can also take them out to eat or for special occasions, so they fit around your lifestyle.

 

It is important to remember that straighter teeth are healthier teeth. When your bite is properly aligned and your teeth are straightened, there are less gaps and areas for food to get trapped and plaque to build up on the teeth, causing decay. In that sense, Invisalign® is a long-term investment in your oral health.
