Are you looking to straighten misaligned teeth?
Many people assume braces are their only option and shy away from choosing a treatment involving clunky, metal wires and rubber bands. If traditional braces aren’t your cup of tea, consider Invisalign®. Clear aligners like Invisalign® are effective and discreet orthodontic treatment options that are worn comfortably over your teeth to continuously adjust alignment and spacing.
How Does Invisalign® Work?
In short, Invisalign® works much like traditional metal braces. Although Invisalign® isn’t always a suitable replacement for metal braces, they serve the same function.
Invisalign® clear aligners apply a small amount of pressure to certain teeth, gently pushing them into the desired direction.
Once your set of aligners has served its purpose, you’ll come back to Life Point to have your aligners adjusted. This way, we can continue to move your teeth in the appropriate direction. Most patients only need their Invisalign® aligners adjusted every few weeks. As with traditional braces, you’ll come away with a straighter, more beautiful smile!
