Modern orthodontics offers several treatment options for patients today. This means that you may have a say in what your process involves for the next several months or years. If your smile features typical, mild to moderate issues, you may have the option of traditional braces, Invisalign, lingual braces, and others. Invisalign is currently the most popular choice, but is it the best option for you.
Invisalign might be the best orthodontic option for you if you have:
• Crooked teeth
• Gaps between teeth
• Crowded teeth
• A cross bite or open bite
• An over bite or underbite
Certain issues, such as rotated teeth and teeth that need to be adjusted vertically, are best addressed with a more traditional appliance.
Patients should also be aware that Invisalign does require commitment on a day to day basis. Invisalign aligners must be worn for at least twenty hours a day, only to be removed in order to eat, drink liquids other than water, and clean the teeth. If the aligners are neglected, treatment can be prolonged, and results may be affected. Good potential patients should be committed to what the treatment involves. A look at some Invisalign reviews can give you a good idea of how this appliance can work for you.
