What is Invisalign? Invisalign is an innovative alternative to conventional metal braces that creates a radiant smile with more comfort and convenience. The unique system straightens the teeth with a series of custom-fit aligners that gradually transform the smile in a comfortable and discreet manner. Unlike metal braces, Invisalign trays are non-invasive without irritating metal wires and bands that can cause discomfort and painful sores. Because the Invisalign system is removable, patients can enjoy a cleaner and healthier mouth while on their journey to a more beautiful smile. Patients who choose Invisalign receive customized care by a specially trained orthodontist who will determine the best course of care for each individual and create a personalized treatment plan.

Metal braces are considered a traditional orthodontic treatment. However, many people do not look at metal braces favorably because it offers them mouthfuls of shiny metal for unknown periods. The price of orthodontic care varies and is determined by a patient’s dental needs.

Invisalign

This is a new invention in the field of orthodontia. Invisalign allows people to switch out invisible, personalized aligners approximately every two or three weeks to straighten teeth.

Healthy foods are better for your teeth, too. Strong, well-aligned teeth are just right for biting and chewing. If your mouth and teeth are not in optimum shape, you may find it difficult to bite and chew the food that are best for you. A Southington orthodontist can help you do something about it.
