1. No more EMERGENCIES
No more emergency visits after accidentally biting on popcorn kernels while watching a movie! Invisalign treatment is designed with end in mind, each step is built into a series of aligner trays. Whereas fixed braces treatment needs to be nudged forward monthly to reach the final goal and to manage long, poky wires. Therefore, Invisalign treatment has longer intervals between appointments, ranging from 8 -12 weeks versus the monthly visits for fixed braces. These longer Invisalign time
intervals are very beneficial during exam times and long holidays. Moreover Appointments lasts for 10-15mins Teens with studying overseas can combine Invisalign with Online Dental Monitoring, for safe, long-distance treatment. At AK GLOBAL DENT we have patients in UK, Canada, Austarlia, Dubai, Japan and Korea who are being treated through regular Online Dental Monitoring.
2. Healthier teeth and gums
Crooked teeth are hard to clean as it is! Add metal brackets and wires to that, brushing becomes a real challenge; along with which an arsenal of brushing and flossing aids needs to be deployed. Therefore it is no surprise that Orthodontists have to remind and show scary pictures of ‘Braces-Decay’ to drive home the point that oral hygiene is very important with fixed braces. Unfortunately, these decay scars around braces are permanent, even when the braces are removed. Oral hygiene maintenance with Invisalign is a so easy! Invisalign aligners are removable, so you continue your regular oral hygiene routine. Regular brushing and flossing (or water-flossing) will suffice.
3. Most Malocclusions can be treated WITHOUT EXTRACTION
Invisalign has the most advanced Orthodontic software system, which allows an experienced Invisalign Provider to plan and move every single tooth in the mouth in an orderly and systematic manner. This in turn allows Orthodontist to carry out movements like: Arch Expansion, which is moving teeth into a broader arc, whereby space is created for straightening out mild-moderate crooked teeth. Invisalign can also create space through Distalization, which is the method of moving posterior teeth backwards and transferring this space to the front area to reduce overbites and straighten teeth. Combining these powerful biomechanics with other tricks up our expert Orthodontist’s sleeve, Invisalign helps us treat most teen malocclusions without Extraction.
4. All you can EAT!!
Teens are a growing, hungry bunch! With fixed braces, you will need to watch what and how you eat, as hard/crunchy food can knock out brackets and push wires out of position. This can be painful and you will need to manage this with braces wax till you find time to make an extra trip to see the Orthodontist. Invisalign gives Teens the freedom to truly enjoy their food without fear of breaking anything. They can eat what they want, whenever they want to.
5. Comfortable and Safe
With Invisalign treatment, the force levels are relatively low and hence comfortable. Tooth movement can be programmed in such a way that one or groups of teeth can be ‘switched off’ or not moved whilst other teeth are moving. Sporty Invisalign teens can play games uninhibited as there is no risk of injury from brackets and wires from an accidental blow or fall. Aligners also acts like a SPORTS GUARD distributing any impact to the mouth evenly.
Musically-gifted Invisalign teens are free to sing and play wind instruments. No more sore lips and poor articulation. Oral or singing examination? No problem! Just remove the aligners for that important event then slip Invisalign aligners back on afterwards.
