Complex metal and wire braces are a thing of the past, as more orthodontics patients turn to simple clear aligner systems to straighten their teeth.

Orthodontics no longer has to be complicated, despite what many people might think. Braces are traditionally associated with hassle, expense and discomfort, as well as repeated visits to the dentist and an awful lot of time. Now there is a far more simple solution – invisible aligners. Made from clear plastic, these orthodontics devices simply fit over the upper and lower teeth to gradually bring them back into perfect alignment.

Orthodontics: Easy Does It

The key benefit to invisible aligners like the Invisalign system is that they are just so simple to use. Once your dentist has taken impressions of your teeth he will send them to a high-tech laboratory to be turned into your personalised set of aligners. All you then have to do is change to the next set every fortnight, and return to your dentist every six to eight weeks for a check-up. When you have worn the final pair of aligners in your set, the orthodontics treatment will be complete and you will be the proud owner of a stunning new set of straight teeth.

Orthodontics: Convenient Systems

Clear aligner systems rate so highly amongst orthodontics patients because they offer the ultimate in convenience. Whereas traditional metal braces have a very complicated system of food and drink restrictions, aligners can be removed before eating and drinking to allow you any choice of meal you like. You can also remove them before flossing and brushing to allow for maximum oral hygiene. So not only will your teeth be beautifully straight after treatment, but they will continue to be healthy without the higher risk of decays that traditional braces pose.

Orthodontics: Quick Results

Another major benefit of cutting edge orthodontics systems like Invisalign is that they can produce results far quicker than traditional braces. Rather than wearing an unwieldy device for years, clear aligners are often effective in as little as twelve months, generally half the time of normal metal braces. So if you want fabulous straight teeth but can’t bear to wear an unsightly orthodontics contraption for a long period of time, then invisible aligners are the perfect solution. Many of the Invisalign Platinum Elite dentists will also offer you a complimentary teeth whitening treatment alongside their orthodontics care, so not only will your teeth be straight, they will also be bright and sparkling too.
