Are you tired of feeling self-conscious about your smile every time you meet someone new? Would you like to smile with confidence? When your teeth are crooked, it takes a toll on your confidence and affects how you feel about yourself. Maybe you've considered straightening your teeth; however, you're not sure you'd like to wear braces. The good news is there are other solutions for your smile, and here's what you should know.
The Benefits of Traditional Braces vs. Invisalign® in Etobicoke
- Invisalign Straightens Teeth With Discretion: Instead of metal braces, Invisalign uses clear plastic aligners to straighten teeth. Because aligners are snug-fitting and clear, they're virtually invisible.
- You Can Remove Invisalign: You should wear your aligners for at least 22 hours daily, but you can remove them for meals and to clean your teeth, meaning no eating restrictions and easier oral hygiene.
- Invisalign Considers Your Comfort: Unlike metal braces, Invisalign is made of smooth plastic, so there are no rough edges or wires to scrape and scratch.
- Fewer Dental Visits: With Invisalign, you visit the dentist less often for monitoring compared with traditional braces, which require adjustment appointments.
Am I Too Old for Invisalign Clear Aligners?
Invisalign is ideal for older teens and adults, and there is no age limit for wanting to look and feel your best.
It's important to remember that Invisalign promotes better oral function as well as improved aesthetics. Straight teeth are also easier to brush and floss efficiently. We encourage adult patients of all ages to consider Invisalign.
Will Invisalign Work For Me?
Dr. Joo or Dr. Moore can determine if Invisalign in Toronto is right for your needs during an examination of your teeth. While Invisalign can't correct complex bite issues, it works well for most patients. If it's not right for your needs, our dentists can discuss alternative treatment options to enhance your smile.
If you move forward with Invisalign, we'll use 3-D technology to plan your treatment and show you exactly what your smile will look like when it's complete before you even get started! Invisalign will fabricate your aligners based on this treatment plan, and you'll wear them for at least 22 hours a day, changing them every 2 weeks.
