Is Invisalign is Better than Braces?

invisalign

Having straight teeth gives is something that many of us take for granted. When you do not have straight teeth, you may feel self-conscious, and desire changes. But you may be unsure of where to start. The professionals at Larry Saylor Dentistry in Brandon, FL understand that having straight teeth shouldn’t be something out of reach for anyone. Through information provided, you will have the knowledge to choose between traditional braces and Invisalign.

The Differences Between Invisalign And Traditional Braces

Invisalign is made for those who do not want to show others they are straightening their teeth. Using clear aligners that are specially made to straighten the teeth but not show is one of the best ways for those that who to straighten without the silver metal brackets. However, there are benefits to using traditional braces over other types of straightening methods.

Traditional braces can be seen by the outside world, but they are better equipped at fixing more serious teeth alignment issues. Invisalign is a treatment plan that only some patients qualify for, and they do this on a patient by patient basis. Braces are ideal for children due to not having to be removed. Many children will remove them because they can do so. This will disrupt the tooth straightening process. Invisalign is recommended more for older teens and adults because they are less likely to remove the aligners that straighten the teeth.

Both have to be adjusted throughout the entire time that you are wearing them. While Invisalign requires less adjustment than braces, braces cannot be taken out. Invisalign is a series of retainers that are switched out every four months. Conversely, braces are not removed until treatment has ended, depending on the severity of the issues the patient has. Traditional braces also give the option of having thinner, more transparent brackets put on the teeth. They’re not as common and not as transparent as Invisalign, however.

Both types of braces provide multiple fixes for various reasons. The severity and unique situation of the patient determines the best treatment option.
