If you are researching clear or invisible aligners, you may have heard or come across many articles relating to mistruths about this treatment, primarily ones that claim that the aligners do not work or are an expensive way to not get your teeth straightened. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"325\" height=\"217\" src=\"https:\/\/www.clearbraces-direct.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/myths-about-invisalign.jpg\" alt=\"myths-about-invisalign\" class=\"wp-image-642\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.clearbraces-direct.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/myths-about-invisalign.jpg 325w, https:\/\/www.clearbraces-direct.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/myths-about-invisalign-200x134.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.clearbraces-direct.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/myths-about-invisalign-50x33.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 325px) 100vw, 325px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>This can be disheartening when you are an adult who simply\nwants a better-looking smile!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At <strong>Clear Braces Direct<\/strong>, we have heard all\nof these mistruths about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.clearbraces-direct.co.uk\/\">Invisalign\nLondon<\/a> before and are always happy to discuss the concerns that our\npatients may have about this aligner before we begin using it to help them get\nthe smile that they want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With that in mind, what are some of the most prevalent myths\nabout <strong>Invisalign London<\/strong> that you may have seen\nonline? Read on for the truth behind the most common ones that we have heard in\nour clinic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Myth 1 &#8211; They don\u2019t work<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, <strong>Invisalign London<\/strong>\nworks! Otherwise, there would not be thousands of patients who can show off\ntheir smiles with supreme confidence after using the treatment. We believe that\nthis myth is due to poorly fitted aligners that have been purchased from online\nsources and, therefore, been linked to Invisalign. We can assure you that if\nyou are suitable for treatment with this aligner, it will be able to straighten\nyour smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Myth 2 &#8211; They are too expensive<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many of our patients have concerns about paying for adult\northodontic care and believe that invisible aligners will be extremely expensive.\nHowever, we know that money does not grow on trees, and we can offer financing\nto our suitable patients to help them cover the costs of their orthodontic\ntreatment with us. Great!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Myth 3 &#8211; Online options are just as effective<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In our experience, online options or straight-to-your-door\noptions are rarely as effective as the ones that we can offer. This is because\nthe majority of these options require you to take a dental mould at home all by\nyourself, which can cause issues with getting an accurate measurement of your\nteeth. An accurate measurement is required to make an aligner. When you come to\nour team at <strong>Clear Braces Direct<\/strong>, we\nwill use an intraoral scanner to take clear and precise measurements of your\nteeth, which can then be used to make your aligners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Myth 4 &#8211; They cannot treat difficult cases<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Originally, invisible aligners could not treat difficult\northodontic cases, but as technology has advanced, they have become better at\ncorrecting more complicated misalignments. The only way to be certain whether\nthis option will correct your misaligned teeth is to contact our team and set\nup a consultation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Myth 5 &#8211; They are better than braces<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They are clear, they are fast; therefore, they are better than braces, aren&#8217;t they? The answer is no. Invisible aligners are suitable for those who have mild to moderate cases of misalignment. Whereas fitted braces are better designed for people who have more complicated cases. So, neither tool is better but rather more suited to certain cases. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Before undertaking any kind of treatment, it is always wise to search online to find out as much as you can.
