People often have concerns about the aesthetic impact of the metalwork on their smiles when wearing dental braces. Especially for adults, the prospect of wearing unattractive metal braces for an extended period can be very discouraging. The Invisalign® system straightens teeth fast without metal and is almost invisible.
Invisalign® is a series of custom-made aligning trays. The dentist adjusts the trays every few weeks to fit the new configuration of the teeth. Aside from the lessened visible impact, Invisalign® aligning trays can be temporarily removed for special events, allowing patients to tailor the length of their treatment. Many patients say they are delighted with the Invisalign® treatment and the beautiful results. One of the only differences between Invisalign® and traditional metal braces is that Invisalign® aligning trays are nearly undetectable to the human eye and can be removed at any time.
Before developing specific alignment trays, the dentist must devise an initial treatment plan. Digital three-dimensional pictures of the complete jaw are taken.
These images allow the dentist to manipulate individual teeth on the screen, observe the jaw from various angles, and even predict how the face will look in the future. In other words, this technology may demonstrate how Invisalign® trays can alter facial features.
After completing the planning process, a unique pair of aligners are created. The number of aligners needed varies depending on the condition, but 20-29 sets per arch are common.

It may take many weeks to adjust to life with Invisalign® aligning trays. Except during eating and drinking, the trays should be worn at all times. When eating or drinking, the trays must be removed since food might become caught between the tray and the teeth, causing tooth decay.
New trays are usually required every two weeks, and development can be noticed between appointments with the naked eye.
Invisalign® aligning trays have undeniably revolutionized orthodontics. Invisalign® is well-known for its comfort and effectiveness.
