Invisalign Reviews
This treatment option is perfect for those patients who are looking to achieve a straighter smile without the use of metal brackets or braces. These clear trays can be removed which can allow the patient to eat or drink anything they’d like without worrying about anything getting stuck in their “braces.” This treatment option is an all-around healthier way to straighten your teeth as the trays can be removed in order to allow the patient to practice good oral hygiene. This allows the patient to brush and floss their teeth properly without needing the use of special instruments to floss accordingly.
There are many patients who have opted for Invisalign as their primary treatment source for aligning their teeth. Many patients have written Invisalign reviews that specify and convey their own experience with this type of treatment option. See below for a taste!
JBowen states, “I am really happy with where my teeth are at ... They are almost 100% straight now. I like smiling, and I find myself smiling really big, especially in photos. Overall, my experience has been positive, and I would recommend them to anyone..”
This treatment option offers patients the ability to discretely straighten their teeth without the need for metal brackets or metal wires. Traditional braces not only hurt the aesthetics of your smile, but they also can be physically painful as they can cause extreme sores in the mouth as well as pain. It eliminates the ability to eat what you want as there is constant fear that something will get stuck in the metal wires.
Maymarlade says, “My reasons for choosing Invisalign was because I had many friends who would complain about flossing, wires becoming loose and having to avoid certain foods because of their braces. I figured that this was something I did not want as a part of my lifestyle for a year or two and opted for Invisalign.”
Although Invisalign gives you the freedom to take the trays out for certain daily tasks, like eating, or even for an event; the procedure does fall upon the patient to remember to put them back in.
Jlista says, “The downside to Invisalign is that you have to be very very disciplined when taking your trays out to eat then putting them back in. I am a super disciplined person and follow schedules but found myself sometimes going even one full day without putting the trays back in.”
Be sure to follow the instructions and wear the Invisalign trays for at least 22 hours in a day. This leaves enough room for the patient to only take them out while eating or while practicing oral hygiene. This treatment option is strictly for those who are willing to do the work and commit to wearing the clear trays all day. If done so correctly, a patient will start to see a difference in their teeth within just a few weeks!
