Who Is an Ideal Candidate for Invisalign?

What is Invisalign? And who is an ideal candidate for this teeth-straightening procedure? If you’re wondering about these questions, don’t worry, you are not alone. 

Invisalign has gained popularity among individuals seeking straight teeth without the metal attachments or wires typically seen in braces. Read on as a Midtown Miami, FL dentist talks about Invisalign and who’s an ideal candidate for this innovative treatment.

What Is Invisalign?

Invisalign is a clear, removable aligner system that straightens your teeth in just a few months. It’s a completely personalized treatment with no cutting or drilling, so you can get back to smiling in just weeks.

Invisalign is made up of removable aligners, which are comfortable and easy to wear. It’s a removable, clear alternative to traditional metal braces. The aligners are made of smooth, comfortable, and virtually invisible plastic.

Invisalign is safe, effective, and convenient because you can remove the aligners to eat, drink and brush your teeth as normal. The only thing that will be different is how people look at you!

How Does Invisalign Work?

Invisalign uses a series of clear plastic aligners that are virtually invisible when worn. Each aligner moves your teeth slightly forward and works to gradually move them into place. By gently moving your teeth day by day and week by week, in only about three months you’ll have the smile you’ve always wanted! 

The process of getting Invisalign is simple. It begins with a consultation with an eye doctor. During your visit, the doctor will examine your teeth and determine which aligners are best for you based on their shape and size. Your optometrist will then send the information to Invisalign so that they can begin creating your custom-made aligners.

So Who Is an Ideal Candidate for Invisalign?

Invisalign is a great option for people who want to straighten their teeth without braces. If you’re interested in Invisalign and want to see if it’s right for you, there are a few things we recommend asking yourself before making an appointment:

  • Do you have any tooth decay or gum disease? If so, Invisalign may not be right for you since they don’t allow plaque removal while they’re being worn (which can lead to tooth decay).
  • If you have overbites or gaps between your teeth, then you are an ideal candidate for Invisalign. 
  • Are you willing to wear the aligners at least 20 hours a day? The aligners have to be worn all day, every day, so if that doesn’t work with your schedule or lifestyle, then it might not be the best choice.

If you have more questions or wish to schedule a consultation, please feel free to call our Midtown Miami, FL dentist office anytime!
