We know the truth about using\nInvisalign at home and can assuage any concerns that you may have about the\nprocess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n So, here, our team looks at some of the most common\nmisconceptions about trying to get straight teeth at home London<\/strong>.\nSo, enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n It doesn\u2019t work<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Many patients have genuine concerns when it comes to moving\ntheir teeth, especially concerning moving them with Invisalign as they may have\nheard that the treatment simply doesn\u2019t work and that you cannot achieve straight teeth at home London<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Invisible aligners have been in use for around 10 years and, in\nthat time, they have achieved 99% effectiveness in the cases they have been\nused in. Ergo, we can promise you that they not only work, but they work well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n All at-home aligners are the same<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n No, they aren’t; the aligners we use, like Invisalign, have a\ngreat track record of straightening teeth and as they are custom-fitted in\nsurgery using an intraoral scanner, they are one of the most effective aligners\nto use overall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You are left to your own devices<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n No, you aren\u2019t! When you come to Clear braces Direct<\/strong>, we will oversee your care when you are using\nInvisalign via the app, which will help us to stay in touch and offer advice as\nand when needed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n You certainly won\u2019t be left on your own when using Invisalign\nwith our team, so don\u2019t worry!<\/p>\n\n\n\n The process is long-winded<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n One of the reasons many providers of invisible aligners began\noffering their patients at-home options was because it made very little\ndifference to the process if it occurred at home or via dental surgery. <\/p>\n\n\n\n But no, the process is no more long-winded than it would be\nnormally, and depending on the severity of your misalignment, you can expect\nthe process to take between 3-6 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The results don\u2019t last<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n There is a prevalent myth that if you get straighter teeth in your own home, once the aligners are off, your teeth will simply fall back into misalignment. Of course, this is not the case, or else our company would not still be operating! <\/p>\n\n\n\n When you have finished using Invisalign, you will need to wear a retainer for a while, to ensure that your teeth do not revert to their former positions. If you do not wear the retainer, you will not be able to maintain the results obtained from this treatment, but this will not be due to an issue with the aligner. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Have you heard a story about invisible aligners gone wrong?
