Braces are a commitment. They’re a big deal. It’s daunting to say yes to this treatment, no matter how much you want it, no matter how much you long for your teeth to look different. While it’s natural to be wary about investing in Invisalign, patients fall in love with this innovative treatment every day. One of the following reasons just might be why you adore these clear braces too.
Near Immediate Results
There is nothing quite so satisfying in the orthodontic journey than watching your teeth quickly shift into their proper positions. Sometimes after only one set of clear aligners, you’ll see a smile that looks markedly different than it used to. Every set of trays won’t deliver such obvious results because work needs to be done under the gumline too, but the changes are significant and often enough that you’ll feel amazing about the change that’s taking place on your Invisalign journey.
Weight Loss
Not everyone loses weight while wearing Invisalign, and it isn’t a promised selling point. However, many wearers experience a change in their body while they sport the clear aligners. It’s a natural side effect. When you have the trays on your teeth for 20 to 22 hours a day, you’re less likely to snack mindlessly because you can’t eat while the aligners are on your teeth. You’ll be far more careful about your meals, and choose foods that fill you up so you don’t have to remove your trays more than necessary.
No Life Interruptions
Conventional metal braces are noticeable. They’re amazing and effective but they are obvious, and most adults who want straight teeth would prefer to have an orthodontic option that doesn’t draw attention to itself. Invisalign doesn’t get in the way of your smiles, speech, selfies, personal life, professional life, or otherwise. It’s a discreet method of lining up your teeth, and no one needs to know that you’re undergoing treatment unless you share this information.
Ease of Use
No one wants to need a ton of tools to take care of their teeth, but wearers of metal braces need a lot to clean in and around the brackets and wires. Flossing and brushing is the same-old thing for Invisalign wearers, with the recommendation that you clean your teeth an extra time or two during the day to make sure they stay clean, the trays stay clean, and there is a healthy environment that is bacteria-free and food-free. You don’t really need any special dental care to keep the aligners clear.
