<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nAnd while the internet is a great source of information, it can\nalso be slightly unreliable, especially when it comes to information\nsurrounding dental care and particularly orthodontic treatments!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you have ever researched clear or invisible aligners online,\nyou have likely come across articles seemingly scaremongering people into not\nusing this treatment option and this can be slightly off-putting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When it\ncomes to debunking myths that surround Invisalign London<\/a>, our team at\nClear Braces Direct<\/strong> has heard them\nall before and more! We know the truth about this aligner and can help you\nunderstand the real-world benefits of using it to get the straighter smile you\nwant. Great!<\/p>\n\n\n\n So, what are some of the most prevalent myths that we have\nheard about Invisalign London<\/strong> in our clinic? Read\non to find out and to have a bit of a laugh, as some of them are exceedingly\ncomical!<\/p>\n\n\n\n They don\u2019t work<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Of course, clear aligners work!<\/p>\n\n\n\n But this is a myth that we hear daily at our surgery relating\nto Invisalign London<\/strong>. Granted, invisible aligners do not work in the\nsame way as traditional braces but they operate using custom-fitted trays,\nwhich gently move your teeth into the desired position via pushing. If you have\na complicated case of dental misalignment, then it is unlikely that this option\nwill work for you, but our team will be able to assess your suitability for\nthese aligners before beginning them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They are completely comfortable<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n As they are not fitted directly to your teeth, you may have\nheard people stating that invisible aligners are completely comfortable to wear\nand will not cause any soreness or pressure in your daily life. As much as we\nwish this myth were true, it isn’t, and it is worth remembering that any\northodontic tool has the task of moving your teeth, which can be complicated\nand a bit sore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Luckily, this aligner has been deemed exceedingly comfortable\nto wear, and any discomfort you may feel should be mitigated using\nover-the-counter pain relievers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They are too expensive<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n As they are clear and as they are new, you may have concerns\nthat you will not be able to afford treatment using invisible aligners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But our team at Clear\nBraces Direct<\/strong> can offer you financing options to help you spread the cost\nof this treatment, so you can get the straighter smile you want without\nconcerns for your income or monthly budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n DIY aligners are just as good<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n There has been a storm relating to the use of DIY aligners\navailable via the internet and dental moulds being sent to your home. However,\nin our experience, these are not as good as using invisible aligners under the\ncare of a member of our team and can worsen dental misalignment due to\ninaccuracies during the measurement and moulding stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The aligners take longer than standard braces<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n On average, invisible aligners take between 3 to 6 months to\nstraighten your teeth and when compared to the 36 months of a standard brace,\nit is easy to see that they are fast working appliances! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" When you are looking for a way to straighten your teeth as an adult, you will undoubtedly go online to research all of your treatment options.
