Common myths about Invisalign<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the most common myths about Invisalign is that it can\nonly be used for mild or moderate orthodontic issues. This is not true.\nInvisalign can be used to treat complex orthodontic cases. The difference is\nthat if you have mild or moderate issues then you may straighten your teeth\nwith Invisalign aligners alone, whereas if you are a complex orthodontic case\nthen you may require a combined treatment plan to straighten your teeth. This\ncould include having to undergo a tooth extraction to make space in your mouth\nfor the teeth to be aligned into a neater formation. It could include\nundergoing a bone graft or a gum graft to improve your dental health following\ngum disease or periodontal disease. It could also include replacing missing\nteeth with dental implants, or cosmetic treatment such as teeth whitening,\ncomposite bonding or even veneers for a complete smile transformation. Bite\ndisorders can also be treated using Invisalign under the supervision of our\nspecialist team. We will assess your individual orthodontic issues and put\ntogether a special treatment plan for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another common myth is that because Invisalign uses removable\naligners to straighten your teeth, patients assume that the treatment will take\nlonger than traditional braces. Again this is incorrect. The length of the\ntreatment depends on how crooked or wonky your teeth are to begin with. Most\nstudies show that for similar orthodontic issues Invisalign and fixed braces work\nat a similar rate. As the aligners are removable it is very important that you\nadhere to the treatment plan and wear the aligners correctly for 22 hours a day\nfor 2 weeks per aligner, so that the treatment does not take longer than\nnecessary. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some people believe that Invisalign is only for adults. This is wrong. Invisalign can be used by teenagers as well who are looking to improve the appearance of their teeth, but want a discreet treatment option as an alternative to traditional fixed braces that often attract unwanted attention to the mouth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
