Invisalign is another method to align teeth, just like braces. The most obvious Invisalign advantage is aesthetics, as there are no brackets or wires that show on the front of the teeth. Invisalign is a clear plastic aligner that moves the teeth into position. Sometimes, the teeth may require tooth colored “attachments” for specific movements.
Another advantage to using Invisalign is the ability to brush and floss your teeth like you normally would while having treatment. Invisalign aligners are removed when eating, drinking, and brushing, while traditional braces are not removed until the treatment is complete. Traditional braces can act as a food trap and make it difficult to brush and floss properly.
