Invisalign

Invisalign has grown in popularity in recent years due to the treatment’s ability to realign your teeth through more subtle means. Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign utilizes clear or “invisible” aligner trays that exert constant pressure on your teeth. This encourages them to shift into a healthier position.

Why Do People Need Orthodontics?

When we hear the word “orthodontics,” many of us automatically think of getting a straighter smile, but did you know that this unique form of care can be recommended to address other issues besides crooked teeth? Your current needs, preferences and, most importantly, what your dentist advises will all determine if this treatment is best.

With that said, some of the reasons why this treatment can be an appropriate solution to repair your smile include:

  • Bite issues (overbite, cross bite, underbite, open bites)
  • Missing several teeth
  • Unhealthy jaw position / TMD
  • Oral trauma
  • Overcrowding

X-rays might also be done so your dentist can understand how your teeth are positioned. Feel free to ask any questions or speak up about any hesitancies you have about this treatment; your dental team is there to help you feel comfortable and have a positive appointment.
