Discover the benefits of Invisalign, the clear alternative to braces, designed for comfort and convenience. Learn if you’re an ideal candidate for Invisalign treatment in Prospect Dental in Arlington Heights, IL.
Invisalign is a groundbreaking approach to orthodontic treatment, using custom-made, clear aligners to gently shift your teeth into place. Unlike traditional braces, these clear aligners are virtually invisible and can be removed for eating and brushing your teeth, offering unparalleled convenience and discretion.
Ideal candidates for Invisalign treatment include individuals with mild to moderate dental alignment issues, such as crowded teeth, gaps, and certain bite irregularities. Invisalign is a popular choice for adults and teens looking for a less noticeable, flexible orthodontic treatment.
While both Invisalign and traditional braces aim to give you a straighter, healthier smile, there are key differences to consider:
Q: How long does Invisalign treatment take?
A: Treatment times vary, but most patients complete Invisalign in 12 to 18 months.
Q: Is Invisalign painful?
A: Most patients experience minimal discomfort, typically feeling pressure for a few days after a new aligner is placed.
Q: How often do I need to wear my aligners?
A: For best results, wear your Invisalign aligners for 20 to 22 hours per day.
Q: Can I eat with my Invisalign aligners in?
A: It’s recommended to remove your aligners when eating or drinking anything other than water.
