Straightening crooked teeth can be beneficial for your oral health and could improve your appearance. However, you're no longer limited to traditional braces for orthodontic treatment. Invisalign in New York, NY, from your dentists, Dr. Joseph Sachs and Dr. Robert Cruz, could be a better option for you.
Here are some unique benefits of Invisalign:
Cleaning Your Teeth is Easier
Even while trying to get your teeth straightened, you'll still need to ensure you're keeping up with proper oral hygiene. With traditional braces, the wires and brackets can get in the way. Luckily, Invisalign makes cleaning your teeth much easier. Simply take off your clear aligners to brush and floss your teeth properly.
More Comfortable
Traditional braces can be uncomfortable sometimes especially after you've just gotten them tightened by your dentist. Invisalign in New York, NY, is much more comfortable. No edges or pieces are protruding in your mouth. Your custom aligners are made to fit your teeth perfectly.
No Diet Restrictions
When trying to reposition your teeth with braces, you might have to give up some of your favorite foods. Foods that are too chewy, hard, or sticky are off the menu. Invisalign places no restrictions on your diet. So, you can still enjoy your favorite meals. Anytime you need to eat, simply take off your clear aligners and replace them right after your meal.
They're Invisible
One of the main reasons why Invisalign is so popular is because it's almost unnoticeable. That means that you can smile and talk as much as you want without being afraid that your orthodontic treatment is stealing the attention.
Fewer Dental Appointments
Regular dental visits are important if you've got traditional braces. During your appointment, your dentists will tighten the wires and bands. However, your dentist will save you the hassle by giving you your dental trays for your current stage and several stages ahead. Therefore, you could move up to a new phase without going to your dentist. You'll still need to stop by every six weeks for your dentist to monitor your progress.
