Traditional orthodontics involves the use of braces or brackets placed on the teeth and wires to move teeth into their proper position. Invisalign or aligners involves the use of a series of clear removable plastic trays to move teeth, a little at a time into their final positions. While aligners have become very popular due to their appearance and ability to remove them for eating and brushing, they do have some limitations. We use aligners to correct crowding, but not for cases where bite correction is needed. Also, they will only work if patients wear them constantly and keeping them out of the mouth for as little as two hours a day severely limits their effectiveness. We, as orthodontists, are trained to correct the bite while improving aesthetics and do our best to educate the patient what option is best for them.
