Many patients who need braces may feel self-conscious about having the traditional types of braces placed on their teeth. This can be true at any age. However as a person ages and begins working outside of the home, this can become a real problem. Often a person who is working at a job will not want to have their appearance altered by the way traditional braces might look. Because of this they may put of having their teeth straightened, which can also be a problem. Having teeth that are not properly aligned not only can be damaging to one’s self confidence but in some cases, it can alter a person’s bite and this can be very difficult to cope with. In such situations, it can be a good idea for the person with these issues to look for Invisalign Dentists Niles who can help them with their problem.
Invisalign braces are much different from traditional braces. Unlike traditional braces that use wires and metal brackets, this type of dental brace works in a much different way. Invisalign braces use a series of clear plastic trays that are custom created for the patient’s teeth. These trays will be used in a gradual manner. Each tray is just a little different from the last. They will gradually change the way the teeth are aligned and shaped within the mouth. Since this happens very gradually, the patient will not feel the process as it happens. Because the trays are clear, they will not be as noticeable when the patient wears them. In addition, they are removable so for short periods of time. This can allow a patient to remove the trays for short periods of time, which can be a great benefit when a special event or occasion comes up and the patient needs to look their best.
Most Invisalign Dentists Niles will need to see a patient receiving this type of treatment on a regular basis so they can make adjustments and prepare new trays for the patient. This can result in the procedure being a bit more costly than traditional dentures. However, for many patients the added cost may be worth it.
