Our smile is often the very first impression we get to make, so doing everything possible to put our best face forward is important. Crooked teeth, besides being unsightly, can create problems in the long run. They can create hard-to-reach places that are hard to clean, making them perfect spots for plaque to hide. Misaligned teeth can also cause wear to other teeth, affect your bite, and interfere with your ability to chew.
Traditional metal braces may still be the best option for those treating severe dental conditions, especially for younger patients. But for many, Invisalign can help them avoid the most common apprehensions people have about correcting their smile. Invisalign clear aligners are made to be far less noticeable than metal braces. You'll have a hard time spotting them on a picture. They also do not limit your diet the way traditional braces do, nor are they as difficult to keep clean. This is because you are meant to take the aligners off to eat and to brush your teeth. They should nonetheless be worn for at least 22 hours every day to ensure the best results.
