<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nThis process was once seen as extreme and expensive, but\nthanks to advances in modern-day orthodontics, you can now have your teeth\nstraightened without drawing unwanted stares or breaking the bank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One of the most popular methods available today for adults to\nstraighten their teeth is the use of invisible aligners. However, while these\nare exceedingly popular, many people have disparaged them; therefore, there\nhave been several myths floating around on the internet that you may have seen\nwhilst researching adult orthodontic care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At Clear Braces Direct<\/strong>, we’re always happy\nto discuss using Invisalign\nLondon<\/a> with our patients to help them get a straighter and better-aligned\nsmile. This aligner has changed the face of adult orthodontic care and can be\nused to treat even more severe cases of orthodontic misalignment. So, if you\nare curious about getting straighter teeth without the hassle, feel free to\ncontact us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But what are some of the most common myths that surround this\naligner? Read on to learn the facts behind the fiction relating to Invisalign London<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The aligners don\u2019t work<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Of course, Invisalign London<\/strong>\nworks! It wouldn’t be so popular if it didn’t!<\/p>\n\n\n\n This myth seems to stem from people assuming that the aligner\njust cannot work as well as a brace. However, due to its unique, custom-fitted\nshape and vector maps, the aligner can apply pressure to the right areas in\nyour mouth to move your teeth gently and without hassle. If you have used\naligners mimicking Invisalign that you bought online and they have not worked,\nyou likely need to see a dentist or orthodontic team to discuss a suitable\noption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They take longer than standard braces<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Actually, no, they don’t! Because Invisalign aligners are\ndesigned to treat mild to moderate cases of dental misalignment, they can do so\nin as little as 3 to 6 months. Whereas wearing a standard fixed orthodontic\nbrace can take 36 months for most adult patients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They are too expensive for most people to afford<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Once again, treatment with Invisalign is more affordable than\nmany people expect because patients don\u2019t have to visit their dentists to have\ntheir aligners straightened or adjusted. Furthermore, since the aligners must\nbe worn for around 3 to 6 months on average, fewer appointments are needed,\nthus lowering the overall cost of the treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can get the same results using aligners bought online<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Many online aligners will require you to take dental moulds by\nyourself at home; unless you have orthodontic experience, this can be tricky to\nget right. So, generally speaking, no, you cannot get the same results from\naligners that are bought online. If you want to get your teeth straightened,\nyou should seek the advice of our team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The results don\u2019t last<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Like all orthodontic treatments, the results will only last if you maintain regular appointments with your dentist and wear the required retainers for the appropriate amount of time to prevent your teeth from reverting to their previous positions. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It is no small thing approaching a dental team to have your teeth straightened as an adult.
