<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nBut as invisible aligners are relatively new to\nthe world of adult orthodontic care, many patients have a few questions about\nthis treatment option and of course whether or not it can help them with their\nmisalignment woes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At\nClear Braces Direct<\/strong>, we have been\noffering our patients Invisalign\nLondon<\/a> for over 5 years and can help to answer any questions that you may\nhave about this treatment option. We always take the time to explain each\ntreatment to our patients and will help you to decide and choose the most\nsuitable option to correct your misalignment issues. <\/p>\n\n\n\n So what are some of the most common questions we\nreceive about Invisalign London<\/strong>? Read on to find out!<\/p>\n\n\n\n How does the aligner work?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Before we talk about how Invisalign London<\/strong>\nworks, let us first think about the traditional fitted brace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It is attached to the teeth using dental cement\nand is adjusted periodically every 4-6 weeks using the archwire to move the\nteeth via the brackets. Invisible aligners are not fitted and require an\nintraoral scan before you begin treatment. This is used to calibrate the\nnecessary movements required for the aligner to work, after which a set of\naligners are printed using a 3D printer, each one slightly different from the\nlast and designed to be worn in a precise order to move your teeth. In short,\ninvisible aligners move the teeth in smaller increments and each aligner is\nworn for around 2 weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Who is suitable for it?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n More people than you think may be suited for\ninvisible aligners. Provided you have a mild to moderate case of dental\nmisalignment and can commit to wearing the appliance for the required 22 hours\nper day, it is highly likely that you will be suited for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n How long does it take?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This brand of invisible aligners has an average\ntreatment time of between 3 to 6 months. But as mentioned before, that is\nassuming that you have a mild to moderate case of dental misalignment and that\nyou commit to wearing the aligners for as long as our team specifies. If you do\nnot wear the aligner for this time, your teeth may revert to their previous\npositions before you started the treatment, the movement may halt or the\nmisalignment may worsen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Is it uncomfortable?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Any orthodontic treatment has the underlying job\nto move your teeth and even with invisible aligners, you can expect there to be\nsome mild discomfort, especially when you are placing a new aligner in your\nmouth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Any discomfort that you experience should be\nmanaged with over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen. If you find\nthat this option does not work, then you need to see our team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Is it easy to care for?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n One of the main things that many patients love about invisible aligners is that they are easy to fit into a daily routine and yes, they are easy to care for. To wash them, you simply rinse them under a cold tap to remove debris or food and pop them back into your mouth. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Whether you are new to the world of adult orthodontics, or if you have been looking for a viable treatment for your dental misalignment for some time, you will likely have come across invisible aligners.
