Misaligned teeth are more than a cosmetic concern. They can cause speech problems, make flossing difficult, interfere with proper chewing, and lead to excess wear. Fortunately, correcting these problems doesn’t always have to mean wearing metal braces for years. Invisalign® is a modern, discreet, and comfortable treatment option available at our Las Vegas dental office.
What Invisalign Can Offer You
Invisalign is a practical and convenient alternative to traditional braces. This transparent aligner system allows you to continue to enjoy eating your favorite foods, is barely visible when on your teeth, and achieves simple to complex fixes often in less time than traditional braces.
Most patients favor clear, transparent aligners rather than the apparent metal wires and brackets. They are custom-molded to fit your unique bite perfectly. These Invisalign trays will help gradually straighten your teeth. They can fix simple to complex alignment problems, like:
- Crooked teeth
- Overbites
- Underbites
- Gaps between teeth
Invisalign can be removed quickly to eat, floss, or brush your teeth. Plus, it can work in 6-12 months – up to twice as fast as traditional metal braces in many cases. That means less time in the dentist’s office and a more comfortable process. What’s not to love about Invisalign?
The Invisalign Process
Invisalign can straighten your teeth in a few steps, including:
- An in-office consultation
- A digital scan of your teeth to create a custom treatment plan
- Visiting us for your first pair of aligners
- Returning for regular check-ins to monitor progress and change your trays
After these steps are complete, you can enjoy your new smile. At that point, you will likely need to wear a retainer to prevent your teeth from moving out of place.
Crooked teeth or a misaligned bite are prevalent issues faced by many people. Left untreated, they can lead to more serious dental problems down the road. If they make you feel self-conscious, you could suffer from low self-esteem associated with the look of your smile.
