Crooked teeth, misalignment, or noticeable gaps between teeth can affect how a person’s smile will look. With less than perfect teeth, people may not smile often or hide their mouth when speaking with other individuals to prevent them from seeing their teeth. In the past, traditional metal braces were the primary solution to correcting a person’s misaligned teeth. However, people dreaded the thought of having metal braces as they can be painful, unattractive and require several years to help move the teeth into the right position. Fortunately, with the technological advances in the dental industry, an alternate solution is available in Chicago with Invisalign to help a candidate achieve proper alignment.
An Efficient Solution for Misaligned Teeth
In Chicago Invisalign is used to slowly force teeth to move into the correct position. A soft, comfortable tray that is virtually impossible to see is created from a clear material that is customized to the person’s teeth. They come in a sequence of aligners that are changed out every two weeks to gradually move the teeth. Besides the comfortable material the aligners are made from, one of the primary benefits of using Invisalign is the ability to remove the trays. People that use this technique do not have to worry about their teeth being brushed correctly or eating special food during the treatment. They simply take the aligners out when they need to eat or clean their teeth.
Consult a Dentist to Discover if You are an Appropriate Candidate
While Invisalign is one of the top preferences in correcting misaligned teeth due to their comfort and clarity. Not everyone is an ideal candidate to receive the treatment and may require traditional metal braces to correct their dental problem. A dentist at Art of Modern Dentistry would gladly consult with you to determine if Invisalign is the right solution to help you achieve a beautiful smile.
