Clear Braces Direct; advantages of Invisalign

Do you want to get a straighter smile without the hassle of wearing a fitted metal brace as an adult?

At Clear Braces Direct London, we can help. We specialise in removable, clear aligners such as Invisalign, which can provide fast results for an affordable price!

In this article, our team will introduce you to some of the other advantages of using Clear Braces Direct London to get the straighter smile that you deserve. Enjoy!

Removable

As before, a key advantage of using Clear Braces Direct London is that we specialise in the Invisalign aligner.

And, as you may have heard, this aligner is not only visually discreet, but it is also removable. Why is that an advantage? Because it means you won’t have to worry about dietary restrictions like corn on the cob, you can take it out to brush your teeth and you can even attend dental checkups. Great!

Comfortable

It is worth remembering that Invisalign is designed to move your teeth into new positions.

But, it does this in a different way to regular braces and does not pull on your teeth to achieve this goal. It gently pushes them, and, as it is made from smooth plastic, it is physically more comfortable to wear at night or during the day, making it more appealing to adults and teenagers.

Fast results

As an adult, you may have concerns that any orthodontic process is going to be long-winded.

But, if our team gives the green light for you to undertake Invisalign, you may be able to have that straighter smile that you want in as little as 3 months! On average, this aligner takes between 3-6 months to straighten teeth, so it may not take as long as you think.

Lifestyle friendly

If you had a friend in high school who wore traditional braces, you probably remember them having to attend checkups every few weeks to have their braces adjusted and altered. Not only that, but they probably also had to visit their hygienist to ensure that their teeth were not succumbing to plaque that could get stuck behind the brace.

As an adult, this may be slightly inconvenient as you may have work and family commitments. With Invisalign, you do not need to have the aligner adjusted; you only need to attend (on average) a single appointment every 6-8 weeks and send us photos of your smile so that we can see how the treatment is progressing.

Improved oral health

One of the key things that concern adult patients about wearing a fitted brace is that it is going to be hard to clean and maintain.

After all, it is adhered to the teeth and can act as a magnet for food and debris, which can cause decay and increase the chances of you developing gum disease. With Invisalign, you can remove the aligner at any time, allowing you to clean your teeth as you usually would whilst also not having to worry about dietary restrictions.

In turn, this allows you to straighten your teeth without having to worry about your dental health being affected. Brilliant!
