Invisalign® - From Teenagers to Adults

If you live in Dallas and are considering seeing an Invisalign® dentist, it may be because you remember the verbal abuse you suffered when you first wore metal braces. Whether you are a teenager or an adult, you must have been called "metal mouth" at some point during your life if you've worn metal braces. With the metal bands and brackets traditional orthodontics use, there is no doubt about the fact that you will have to face these names. In fact, many of you out there probably skip the idea of teeth straightening simply because you are appearance-conscious.

However, with the cutting edge of Invisalign® technology, even the vainest patients smile widely as they go through the treatment. Whether you are 14 or 60, the teeth straightening devices used as part of the Invisalign® treatment are so clear that it is just about impossible for anyone to know that you are actually wearing braces. Unlike with metal brackets, you can remove them to eat and brush. Eating becomes more comfortable, and you can still eat peanut butter!

Sometimes, not getting braces isn't about vanity, but about pain. A complaint that many teens and adults alike have about metal braces is that they are very painful on the mouth. But Invisalign® does not rub the inside of your mouth and so the risk of cutting or injuring the inside of your mouth is less likely - this is particularly beneficial to teens and active adults. Also since you can remove your aligners when you are brushing your teeth, you can also maintain and perk up your oral health too.

As a prospective Invisalign® client, you probably know how all this is possible. Invisalign® actually works based on CAD-CAM technology which utilizes a range of clear, custom aligners which are shaped to snugly fit your teeth. All you have to do is to wear the aligners at all times with the exception of when you are dining, flossing or brushing. With checkups every six weeks, we will monitor your progress and provide you with new aligners as needed - it's so simple!

If you've been shuddering at the thought of braces, simply because you are worried about peer pressure or because you are afraid that it will bring down your attractiveness, Invisalign® can be a great motivation! Whether you are a teen or an adult, getting your teeth straightened can seriously straighten out your entire social life and of course your smile too. Even though Invisalign® can be a bit more expensive, the treatment time is less and so is the pain. Plus, we can help arrange attractive third party financing to make Invisalign® affordable. Surely Invisalign® is well worth the investment. Remember that opting to use Invisalign® is not only an intelligent decision but also one which will make you look more attractive too!
