There are plenty of case studies involving adults who have spent years hiding their smile, feeling ashamed of their teeth or just not 100% happy because they were too self conscious to wear braces as a child or teenager.

Unlike metal braces, which you simply can't miss, Invisalign are practically invisible, and can be removed for functional activities like eating. If you can't bear the thought of having your life and your self-confidence hindered by metal braces, then join the clear revolution with Invisalign.
