Why is Invisalign in Edgware so popular to straighten teeth?

Modern orthodontics offers a wonderful selection of dental alignment devices to correct the positioning of teeth. While all these orthodontic devices are used to great effect in the dental alignment process, there is one that is widely acclaimed for the additional benefits of comfort they provide – Invisalign in Edgware.

At Katz and Madhok Orthodontics, we are excited to embrace a new era in orthodontic treatment by making available Invisalign in Edgware to our patients who are considering enhancing their smiles.

As a modern orthodontic treatment plan, Invisalign in Edgware works smartly to produce desirable results whilst also offering numerous sought-after benefits.

Rewards of choosing Invisalign

The first benefit of Invisalign is that the aligners are so comfortable to wear. Each aligner is custom-made to adhere to each patient’s individual dental specifications. It is this custom-made fit as well as being made completely from flexible plastic material (no metal parts) that promotes its offer of relative comfort.

Speaking of comfort, patients should know that at the beginning of all orthodontic treatment, it is quite usual for there to be a period of adjustment to get used to. Any foreign dental device inserted in the mouth will feel strange at first and may be uncomfortable. The good news is that this discomfort with Invisalign aligners does not generally last long. If there is prolonged discomfort, patients are advised to let us know so that we can look into why this is.

Invisalign’s aligners are made from transparent plastic medical, meaning they are nearly invisible when worn; this is a welcomed benefit for adult patients and teenagers who want a discreet orthodontic treatment option.

On the Invisalign treatment plan, aligners can be removed to make eating easier. Patients do not have to worry about the risk of damage to the aligners or the tray-based braces becoming stained; they are free to eat and drink whatever they like.

While the removability feature of the aligners promotes the popularity of this treatment plan, patients are cautioned not to remove the aligners except for eating and cleaning their mouths – activities which are limited to two hours a day.

Each aligner in the series of Invisalign aligners features intuitive technologies that gently move teeth into proper alignment. To ensure the successful completion of their treatment plan and the results expected, patients must follow the interval change of aligners as outlined in their treatment plan. Any delay in changing the aligners to the next one in sequential order may delay the effects of the process.

Invisalign is convenient, comfortable to use and effective in correcting many orthodontic challenges. It is easy to see why this orthodontic option has become the gold standard in correcting dental alignment.

Like with any orthodontic treatment intervention, there are guidelines of use to comply with. In the case of Invisalign, these guidelines include complying with the mandatory rule of wearing the aligners for 20 to 22 hours a day.

Another rule is to keep the aligners safely stored in specially-made storage cases; this will prevent the aligners from being damaged or misplaced. Either event will only negatively impact the treatment plan caused by the delay while waiting to replace damaged or lost aligners.
