Do you want to fix your smile? Have you been looking for a way to fix alignment issues, gaps, or crooked teeth? While braces are an effective treatment, not everyone wants to have a mouth full of metal. Clear aligners can offer similar results but are far less noticeable. To learn more, please keep reading. If you would like to meet with our WNY orthodontists for a free consultation, please give us a call right away.
Who is a Good Candidate for Clear Aligners?
There are some patients who will not be ticketed as a good candidates for Invisalign. If you have major issues with alignment, overbites, or malocclusions then traditional braces, as well as orthodontic surgery, may be needed. Generally speaking, if there are a lot of changes that need to be made to your smile, you would not be best suited for Invisalign.
If you have minor issues such as small gaps between teeth, crooked teeth, etc. then we encourage you to schedule a free Invisalign consultation with us right away.
Invisalign can give you a beautiful smile that you will be proud to show off.
At Home Clear Aligners
There is a growing list of companies that offer virtual orthodontic treatment. You have likely seen advertisements for these types of companies that offer impressions and aligner trays via mail.
These companies exist because of the growing demand for people to be able to get all sorts of services from the comfort of their homes.
While they typically market a more affordable clear aligner with quicker treatment times, there are some true detriments to this “DIY” orthodontic care.
Users of some of these companies have complained about how their teeth get shifted too quickly, resulting in their teeth becoming loose. Orthodontists have seen patients after they have gone through these at-home treatments who have serious issues with their aligners.
While it might be enticing to do all of this on your own without ever having to drive to an office, it is important that you treat your teeth with the care they deserve. If you want to ensure that you are getting the correct treatment that you need, make a call to our orthodontists today.
