Adult Orthodontic Treatment Option: Clear Braces from Invisalign

If you’re ready to take the first step towards obtaining a better-looking smile, consider clear braces for your orthodontic treatment. If you have mild crowding, spacing, or other minor dental abnormalities, you might be a good candidate for Invisalign:

• Smile with Confidence 
  Many adults put off their orthodontic treatment, because they want a more subtle treatment than traditional braces offer. Plus, metal brackets and wires can interfere with a person’s ability to smile and communicate clearly. Invisalign allows you to smile with confidence. With clear braces, no one will even know you’re undergoing an orthodontic treatment.
• Maintain Your Quality of Life
  Most people have to give up some measure of their quality of life when they undergo orthodontic treatment. However, with clear braces, you don’t have to give up anything. You can remove the Invisalign trays when you need to, allowing you to continue eating what you want and maintaining your oral hygiene routine.
• Preserve Optimal Dental Health 
  Since you can remove your Invisalign trays, you can effectively clean your teeth and gums during your orthodontic treatment. Traditional braces make cleaning the teeth and flossing the gums extremely difficult. Many patients suffer gum disease and tooth decay throughout their traditional orthodontic treatment due to inadequate oral hygiene routines, adding on to the cost of dental care. With clear braces, you simply have to remove the trays to brush and floss normally. When you are finished cleaning your teeth, you just snap them back into place!

Find out if clear braces are right for you by contacting Seligman Orthodontics. We use the latest in child and adult orthodontic treatments to provide high-quality orthodontic service and results.

How Orthodontic Treatments Can Help Prevent Gum Disease

Many people think orthodontics are purely for cosmetic benefit. However, the truth is that orthodontics can contribute to a better functioning mouth and better overall oral health. Orthodontics can make it easier to maintain a healthy mouth by properly aligning the teeth, making them easier to clean.

• Make Cleaning Plaque Easier 
  From the time you eat breakfast to the time you eat dessert after dinner, plaque is forming on your teeth. This is why most dentists recommend that you brush your teeth at least twice a day. If your teeth are crooked, it is harder to reach certain areas of your teeth, and you’re more likely to leave plaque and bacteria on your teeth each time you brush. If plaque is allowed to build up around the gums, bacteria begin eating away at your gums, causing gum disease. When the teeth are straight, you can easily reach all sides of your teeth each time you brush, increasing the amount of plaque you remove.
• Allow for More Thorough Flossing
  When the teeth are straight, there is a thin amount of space between each tooth. This space allows people to effectively glide a strand of floss in between each tooth and remove hard-to-reach plaque. Crooked teeth contain irregular spacing, which makes it challenging to clean in between certain teeth. This increases your chances for developing gum disease. Orthodontic treatments are designed to properly align teeth so that people can effectively clean in between the teeth easily.
• Encourage Good Hygiene Habits
  People who undergo orthodontic therapy to achieve a straight smile are more likely to take better care of their teeth compared to those who didn’t. Because you must take extreme care as well as stick to a strict oral hygiene routine when wearing braces, you are more likely to continue those good habits in the future.
