Braces are a scary word no one wants to hear when visiting the dentist. From wires and rubber bands to getting them tightened every four to six weeks, traditional braces are an uncomfortable experience. They can be embarrassing and keep you from living your life, but there is one solution for both your lifestyle and your smile: Invisalign. What are Invisalign and how do they work? Let’s take a look!
Eating
One of the main complaints any orthodontist receives is about food. When you have traditional metal braces, you must avoid eating certain foods like popcorn, chewing gum, certain candies, and other food that could become stuck in the metal wires. This food not only gets suck, but it feeds the bacteria in your mouth, causing tooth decay and cavities. With Invisalign braces, you are free to eat whatever you want. Invisalign braces are completely removable so you can enjoy the foods you love without fear of it getting stuck.
Embarrassment
Metal braces are like a beacon of embarrassment. They draw attention to your teeth and that can be a bad thing when you are trying to live your life. People judge others by looks and this can be a harsh reality when you are working in a professional setting. But with Invisalign braces, you will have the smile you’ve always wanted without the embarrassment of metal on your teeth.
Pain Free
Getting your metal braces tightened every four to six weeks is a painful experience. But with Invisalign you will be able to switch your completely removable braces yourself, only visiting your Catonsville Dental Care dentist to monitor your progress. Unlike with other braces, you will be able to continue your oral care routine and maintain your white smile. These braces are smooth and molded to your ever-changing smile throughout your Invisalign systems.
Live Your Life
Unlike with other braces, you will be able to continue living your life. Adults and adolescents alike, you will be able to continue doing hobbies, playing sports, and living the life you lived before braces. This system is popular with athletes as well as musicians because of their smoothness as well as their ease of use. Invisalign braces do not get in the way or cause bleeding while playing instruments or if you fall while kicking a soccer ball.
Invisalign can help give you your life back and give you the healthy, straight smile you’ve always wanted. For more information on Invisalign braces or our other dental care services, call Catonsville Dental Care today!
