Invisalign Or Clear Aligners Are Much Better

Invisalign in Harleysville has become a lot more popular as compared to metal braces. To choose the right braces one should consult an expert orthodontist .There are so many choices available in the market. Braces are available in ceramic, plastic and metallic. They can be fixed permanently or temporarily but for some people invisalign or clear aligners are much better than traditional metallic braces. Here are some points about invisalign which one should go through before making any choice.

1. Need to wear 22 hours a day

If you opt for invisalign make sure you wear them 20 to 22 hours a day to get better result. It means one should use them while sleeping as well.

2. Early Results

Metallic braces give results but invisalign give results in lesser time. That means your perfect smile would come earlier with invisalign.

3. Need replacement 

Invisalign are made specifically for each patient according to their treatment and they need replacement as well. Each set of invisalign should be changed in every 4 to 6 week or as advised by the orthodontist.

4. Handling invisalign.

If you have little malocclusion then Invisalign is easily removable but if greater, than invisalign is not as comfortable as described because of buttons and attachments. These buttons and attachments stress misaligned teeth to straighten them. If your dental condition need attachments and buttons then putting on and removing invisalign may be not so easy. You may feel uneasiness as well.

Lastly do your research about all kinds of braces and it's best to consult former patients.
