If you are considering getting clear aligners to straighten your teeth, then you may be wondering which option is best for you. There are a few different brands of clear aligners on the market, but Invisalign® is often considered to be the best choice. Here are some of the reasons why Invisalign® is so popular:
Why is Invisalign® the Best Choice?
Made from SmartTrack material
Invisalign® clear aligners are made of patented SmartTrack material. The materials is engineered especially for the Invisalign® treatment system. The materials is gentle, applying gentle, constant force while being more comfortable and easier to put on and take off. SmartTrack also improves the control of tooth movements for the smile you expect. It fits snuggly around your teeth and straightens teeth more predictably.
You may wonder how one material can be so much better than another. The answer is that SmartTrack material is based on eight years of research and development, testing of over 260 materials, and decades of expertise in biomechanics and material science being put to use!
In-person Consultations with a Doctor of Your Choice
Direct-to-consumer or mail-order clear aligner options are done virtually without any in-person professional oversight. There is always a risk that teeth may not move as planned and could worsen the bite or cause other unwanted issues when treatment isn’t done under the guidance of a dentist or orthodontist. With Invisalign®, you have in-person consultations with a doctor of your choice at every step of your treatment. You can feel confident that your smile is in good hands!
Each Aligner Is Trimmed to Your Gum Line for Optimal Comfort and Appearance
Unlike other clear aligners, Invisalign® is trimmed to your gum line for optimal comfort and appearance. This means that the aligners will be less visible and fit more comfortably against your teeth. With other brands of clear aligners, you may have excess plastic showing when you smile.
Blue Compliance Indicator Dots to Help You Stay on Track
Invisalign® aligners come with blue compliance indicator dots that fade over time as you wear your aligners. This is a visual cue to let you know when it’s time to switch out your current set of aligners for the next ones in your treatment plan. This helps ensure that you are wearing your aligners for the correct amount of time each day and getting the best results possible from your treatment.
What about Traditional Braces?
There are many reasons why to choose Invisalign® over traditional metal braces. For one, dental hygiene is much easier with Invisalign®. You can brush and floss your teeth normally, and there is no need to worry about food getting stuck in your metal wires, leading to oral health issues and potential tooth decay.
The treatment process is also more comfortable, and you can continue to go about your day-to-day activities without feeling self-conscious. Invisalign® is also virtually invisible compared to traditional braces with metal wires, making it a great option for those who want to straighten their teeth but don’t want everyone to know.
