What Are Invisible Aligners?
Invisible aligners, crafted from BPA-free PETG plastic, are transparent, comfortable, and custom-made to fit your teeth. Unlike traditional braces, they don’t have sharp edges that may cause discomfort. They provide a seamless, pain-free alternative for teeth straightening.
What Are Metal Braces?
Metal braces are orthodontic appliances made of stainless steel brackets and archwires that apply pressure to move teeth. While effective for complex cases, their treatment duration ranges from 18 to 36 months. They require regular adjustments and careful cleaning.
Disadvantages of Metal Braces
- Eating Restrictions: Avoid hard, sticky, or crunchy foods that may damage wires or brackets.
- Extended Treatment Time: Results often take years, requiring strict adherence to care instructions.
- Difficult Cleaning: Brushing and flossing around braces is challenging but crucial for oral hygiene.
Benefits of Invisible Aligners
Why Invisible Aligners Are Preferred Today
- Convenience: Easy to insert, remove, and wear for 20–22 hours daily.
- Discretion: Transparent design ensures they remain virtually invisible.
- Efficiency: Gradual changes with aligners swapped every few weeks provide visible results in months.
- Flexibility: Suitable for social situations, sports, or playing musical instruments without discomfort.
Caring for Invisible Aligners
- Remove aligners before eating or drinking anything but water.
- Brush and floss after meals to reduce bacteria buildup.
- Rinse aligners with water when a toothbrush isn’t available.
- Store them safely in their case when not in use.
Freedom While Wearing Aligners
- Enjoy your favorite activities and food without compromising your treatment.
- Avoid nail-biting, chewing on pens, or consuming alcohol while wearing aligners.
