This is known as an invisible aligner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As our\nname suggests, at <strong>Clear Braces Direct<\/strong>,\nwe specialise in the use of clear or invisible aligners to help our patients\nget the smiles that they deserve. Particularly, we specialise in the use of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.clearbraces-direct.co.uk\/\">Invisalign London<\/a>, which is a\nfast and efficient way to correct moderate misalignments<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But are there any advantages to wearing <strong>Invisalign London<\/strong>\nas an adult? And how does this aligner compare to traditional braces? Read on\nto find out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Removable<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A key advantage of wearing <strong>Invisalign London<\/strong> in\nyour adult years is that the aligner is removable, which means you can take it\nout if you are giving talks, lectures or simply don&#8217;t want to have it in your\nmouth. But be aware that for this aligner to work at its full efficiency, you\nwill need to wear it for a minimum of 22 hours per day or as directed by our\nteam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Discreet<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This type of aligner is branded as invisible, primarily because\nit is the closest thing you will get to an invisible orthodontic tool! It is\nmade from clear plastic and is moulded to slot over your teeth. So it will not\nbe bulky or protruding. This means that whilst you are wearing it, few people\nwill be able to spot it unless you point it out. Which has an obvious benefit\nin the working environment or even if you are dating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Lifestyle friendly<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the past, undertaking orthodontics in adult life would\nusually mean extensive trips to the dentist to have the braces tightened or\nadjusted. As this aligner does not require adjustments, you will not need to\nsee our team at the practice as often. Using the associated app, which is\ndownloadable for smartphones, you can send us weekly updates via a selfie, so\nwe can determine if the aligner is progressing as planned, or if you need to\nsee our team. This saves on a lot of time and money that could have been spent\nmaking trips to our surgery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Affordable<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is newer and it is trendy, so surely it is more expensive!\nThis is a common thought that many of our patients have when it comes to using\ninvisible aligners. However, as you will not need to see our team as much and\nas there is no need to adjust or tighten the aligners, the cost of undertaking\nthis treatment may be more affordable than you think. We also offer financing\noptions to help you spread the cost if needed. So talk to our team about this\noption today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Time saving<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It may sound surprising but an invisible aligner can straighten\nyour smile in as short a time as 3 to 6 months, depending on the severity of\nthe issue being corrected and your adherence to wearing the aligner. So you can\nbegin wearing this tool before a wedding or another important event and have\nyour teeth straightened in time.
