The word orthodontics basically refers to a man or woman who has his/her teeth covered with lattice work of metal. There are a lot of patients that fits in to this description and the number of such patients is increasing. Noe dentists have a very popular alternative to traditional metal braces and that is Invisalign.

Invisalign is basically an aligner that is made up of almost invisible polyurethane plastic. The best thing about it that it does get bound or cemented with the teeth and can be removed. This means that you can remove them for special occasions, for eating and while tooth brushing and flossing. But this advantage of Invisalign is also its disadvantage. Knowing this you have to resist temptation to take it out more often. Some of the advantages of Invisalign are following:

Improved oral hygiene:

Because it is a removable appliance you can take much care of your oral health. You can take these aligners out while brushing your teeth and the process of cleaning will become more easier then. With traditional braces you cannot take a good care of your oral health because they cannot be removed while brushing or flossing.

Natural look:

As mentioned earlier that Invisalign aligners are transparent in color which means that no one can notice that you are actually wearing some thing over your teeth. We know patients with braces who feels embarrassed at time because of their teeth. These aligners are hardly visible and that is why are perfect form of orthodontic treatment.

Comfortable:

Because these aligners can be removed easily it increases the comfortability for the user. These aligners are thin and flexible and don’t irritate the soft tissues of the mouth. Metal wires and braces on the other side are very hard to carry. Those wires and braces also needs certain protection and the patients have to consider some diet modifications. But this is not the case with Invisalign. You can eat whatever you want like you can bite in to an apple and can also enjoy the crispy crust of pizza.

The dentistry technology has improved over the years and Invisalign aligners are the latest form of the treatment. Although in some cases braces are the best choices to consider but you can talk to your dentist and can then make a choice. Let’s see how Invisalign actually works.

How Invisalign works?

The goal of the Invisalign aligners is same but they differ a little in working. Basically, a specialized computer software is first used to design a plan for the movement of the teeth and their current position. This software also determines the possible alignment for the teeth. Then this software broke the movement in a number of stages. Then the company manufactures two plastic mouth trays for each stage. One of them fits the upper teeth and the other part fits the lower teeth. It is required o wear those pairs for at least 20 hours a day. Then you gradually move to the next stages.
