Invisalign is one of the world’s most popular orthodontic systems. Many people opt to have Invisalign braces due to the fact that they are virtually invisible. With Invisalign, all you can see is the difference in your smile before and after treatment. If you’re interested in an invisible brace, here’s everything you need to know about incredible Invisalign.

What does treatment involve?

Invisalign treatment involves wearing a series of bespoke aligners over the course of a specific timeframe. Every patient receives a set of custom-designed aligners, which are fabricated based on individual treatment plans. Every brace is different, and patients are required to wear the aligners for 2 weeks before swapping the appliance over. Invisalign aligners are made from transparent plastic, and they must be worn in order. The aligners generate forces, which move the teeth gently. Although Invisalign aligners are removable, they should be worn for around 22 hours per day to achieve the best results.

The advantages of Invisalign

Invisalign is hugely popular for many reasons. Advantages of Invisalign include:

• Discretion: Invisalign aligners are virtually undetectable when you smile
• Comfort: these braces are made entirely from plastic, and they don’t contain any metal parts. They also use gentle force to reposition the teeth.
• Convenience: as you can take your aligners out, Invisalign Treatment fits into your daily routine very easily. You don’t have to worry about getting food stuck in your braces or trying to steer a brush around brackets and bands.
• Flexibility: many people enjoy the flexibility offered by a removable brace.
