If you’ve been looking into braces either for yourself or a loved one then you’ll be hard pressed to have not come across Invisalign Chelsea. Invisalign has become the leader in orthodontic treatment due to its accessibility, celebrity endorsement, and ease when wearing. We at Chelsea and Fulham Dentist have seen first hand the amazing results of Invisalign which is why today we want to share with you some of the benefits.
What Is Invisalign Chelsea?
Let’s start off by making sure we’re all on the same page with exactly what Invisalign aligners are.
The trays are made from a hard plastic which is super durable, clear, and lightweight. During your initial consultation period we will take scans or moulds of your teeth and gums which will then be transformed into an Invisalign plan.
The Invisalign software is able to create a plan for your brace journey which will be able to track your teeth as they move into their new position.
Rather than being given one set of braces like with traditional wired braces, with Invisalign you will work your way through different sets of aligners. You will receive new aligners every two weeks or so and once this move is completed you’ll be given another set. Depending on the complexity of your dental needs, it will depend on how long the process will take, but for lots of people the whole process can be completed in as little as six months.
The Benefits of Invisalign Chelsea
The most obvious and, for lots of patients, biggest benefit of Invisalign is that they’re far more subtle in appearance than traditional braces. For lots of people, they note that the aligners are hardly noticeable which is great for those working in professional positions or customer facing roles; this therefore opens up orthodontics to a wide range of adults.
The aligners are excellent for keeping up with the maintenance of teeth. It’s been super common for patients in the past ending up with their teeth deteriorating in health during orthodontic treatment because it’s hard to keep up with cleaning that’s needed. However, because you’ll be taking the aligners out everyday to clean then there shouldn’t be any difference in your cleaning routine.
The feedback has been that they are more comfortable to wear day to day than traditional braces are. As the nature of them being a plastic tray means there’s not tough bits that your gums or lips can get caught on and cause rubbing.
And finally, with the nature of them being removable it means there is the opportunity to take your braces out for the day if you have a super special occasion coming up. This is only to be done on those super special occasions and not every saturday night as it will impact the progress and success of your treatment.
