Whether it\u2019s crowding or gaps in between your teeth, it\u2019s worth it to take action if your appearance bothers you! One of the best things about modern dentistry is that you have options to straighten your teeth that weren\u2019t available even 20 years ago. Today you can opt for Invisalign in Fort Worth, which offers an invisible way to get the same great result that you would from traditional braces. If you\u2019d like to know more about the advantages of this system, and also get an idea of whether it will work for you, keep reading for more information.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>Is Invisalign a Better Option?<\/h2>\n<p>There are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tillmansmiles.com\/invisalign.html\">multiple benefits to straightening your teeth with Invisalign<\/a> instead of braces:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>It\u2019s practically invisible to other people.<\/li>\n<li>The clear aligner trays are far more comfortable than metal brackets.<\/li>\n<li>Keeping your teeth and gums clean is much easier by far, and you\u2019ll be less likely to have cavities when you reach the end of treatment.<\/li>\n<li>The trays are removed before eating, so you can eat everything that you did before.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How Does Invisalign Work?<\/h2>\n<p>Invisalign works by using thin, comfortable plastic trays (aligners) to apply gentle pressure to your teeth. You wear each set of trays for about two weeks\u00a0and then proceed to the next set. Every two weeks, your teeth will move a bit closer to their final, corrected position.<\/p>\n<p>When your teeth have moved into their final positions, you\u2019ll be given a final set of aligners to use as retainers. You\u2019ll wear these indefinitely, only while sleeping at night, to prevent your teeth from returning to their former positions.<\/p>\n<h2>Will Invisalign Work For You?<\/h2>\n<p>While scheduling a consultation with your cosmetic dentist in Fort Worth is your best bet for determining whether you\u2019re a good candidate, here are some of the factors they\u2019ll be looking at:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Age<\/strong> \u2013 If a patient under the age of 15, their facial structure and bones may still be developing. This is determined on a case-by-case basis.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Commitment<\/strong> \u2013 The aligners must be worn for an absolute minimum of 20-22 hours per day. If there\u2019s any reason that a patient can\u2019t commit to this schedule, braces may be a more effective choice.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Severity <\/strong>\u2013 While Invisalign can certainly work for a wide range of cases, it may not work for particularly severe crowding or bite issues.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>With the long list of advantages you\u2019ll enjoy with this option over traditional orthodontics, it\u2019s worth it to have a simple evaluation so you can make an informed choice about the best way to straighten your teeth!<\/p>\n<h2>About the Author<\/h2>\n<p>Dr. David Tillman is a general, restorative and cosmetic dentist who is committed to providing his community with the best dental care possible.
