Meaning\nthat you would have to simply get used to having misaligned teeth in adult\nlife.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Luckily, we are here to shed some light on the facts behind\ninvisible aligners and the process of straightening your teeth as an adult.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because at\n<strong>Clear Braces Direct<\/strong>, we know all\nthere is to know about straightening your teeth using clear or invisible\naligners. We specialise in using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.clearbraces-direct.co.uk\/\">Invisalign\nLondon<\/a> and can quickly and easily assess if you would be suitable to use\nthis type of aligner to get the smile that you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So what are some of the most common mistruths that we hear from\nour patients about <strong>Invisalign London<\/strong>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>They take too long to work<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a patient who has a mild to moderate case of dental\nmisalignment, <strong>Invisalign London<\/strong> can take anywhere\nbetween 3 and 6 months to straighten their smile. However, your treatment time\nmay vary and be longer, based on the severity of the misalignment that is being\ncorrected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Compared to traditional braces which can take 3 years to\nstraighten an adult\u2019s teeth, invisible aligners are exceedingly quick and\nprecise, making them an ideal choice if you have an important event coming up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>They are prohibitively expensive<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a very common myth that has unfortunately prevented\nvery suitable candidates from getting help for their dental misalignments using\nthis aligner. At our practice, we can offer our suitable patients financing\noptions to help them spread the cost of this realignment treatment into\naffordable monthly instalments. So, to cut a long story short, no, invisible\naligners are not prohibitively expensive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>They don\u2019t work<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You may have read online that these kinds of aligners just\ndon&#8217;t work. However, this would only be the case if you were using them to\ncorrect a severe misalignment, which would not be suited for this tool, or if\nyou were using it incorrectly. If our team deems you suitable to use this\naligner, it will work, if you follow our instructions on daily usage and wear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>They can\u2019t correct severe misalignments<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When this aligner was originally designed, it could not correct\nsevere misalignments. But as the technology has progressed, even complex\nunderbites or overbites can now be managed and reversed using invisible\naligners. However, if you have a misalignment that would involve one of your\nteeth being rotated, or your molar teeth being moved then it is unlikely that\nyou will be suitable for this aligner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>They only work on younger adults<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have treated patients of all ages with this aligner, from 18\nto 80, and can attest that this aligner is not only suitable for use in younger\nadults. As long as you have good oral health and have a mild to moderate\nmisalignment that can be corrected, we will be happy to help you get the\nstraighter smile you want using this aligner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you are somebody who is looking to straighten their teeth later in life, you will want to ensure that you have all the facts right.
