Invisalign is an innovative system for proper alignment of teeth through the use of series of transparent and comfortable trays, sticking perfectly to your teeth. These virtually invisible trays gradually move teeth to a position in which you can be proud of your smile. Properly aligned teeth are important not only for aesthetics and your self-confidence, but also for the health of your gums, as they are easier to clean than crowded teeth or those with greater space between them. Invisalign is applicable to almost all orthodontic cases in children over 11 years and adults, without upper age limit.
Invisalign is created to improve your life style during orthodontic treatment by its following advantages:
It uses transparent and invisible trays. Fixing brackets and arch wires, which make your appearance worse, is not necessary;
These trays (aligners) are removable, which makes eating and maintenance of personal oral hygiene easier. Most fixed orthodontic appliances can cause gingivitis (gum inflammation) and require increased oral hygiene;
You switch to a new pair of trays every 2 weeks;
You can easily control your progress by regular visits to your orthodontist.
In that way you don't need to make general changes in your hygiene and eating habits and to limit social contacts.
How does invisalign work?
Invisalign uses 3-D computer technology through which misaligned teeth are virtually moved and the whole treatment is monitored from the beginning to the end. According to that plan series of trays (aligners) are made, that are unique for your case. Each tray is worn for about two weeks and then the next one is inserted. Thus teeth gradually move to their final position.
Treatment time is comparable to that of traditional braces. It varies depending on the concrete case, but in most cases the desired result is apparent in less than a year.
Over 500 000 people have trusted Invisalign. It is never too late achieve your beautiful dream smile.
