Invisalign is usually not the best strategy to remedy severe orthodontic cases. For instance, in the case of a large overbite, Invisalign would not be able to shift the jaw in the necessary manner that traditional braces could.
However, if your case is mild or rather common, Invisalign may very well be able to tackle it. Invisalign is particularly effective in correcting the following conditions:
Your teeth are still growing until you are an older teen or an adult. This is why Invisalign is not recommended for children or young teens. If your teeth are still growing, there is no way our Allentown orthodontist can make aligners that will fit your mouth perfectly.
Often, older clients also prefer Invisalign because of the subtle aesthetic of the treatment. The invisible aligners will allow you to continue to go to work or outings with friends without wires and brackets on your smile.
One of the best perks of Invisalign is that the aligners can be removed, which makes eating meals and brushing your teeth easy. However, this advantage of the treatment can become a challenge if you are not disciplined in reapplying the trays. Our 5-star Allentown PA orthodontist recommends wearing your trays for at least 22 hours a day. Consider your daily schedule and lifestyle when deciding if Invisalign is right for you.
During your initial Invisalign consultation, our orthodontist can help you decide whether Invisalign or another state-of-the-art orthodontic treatment is right for you. In the meantime, you can get a general idea about if you may qualify for Invisalign by taking this online Smile Assessment.
