The Many Benefits Of Invisalign

Let’s face it – we all want that picture-perfect smile without the fuss of old-school metal braces. We’re living in an age where we want solutions that fit our lifestyle, are discreet, and get the job done. That’s where Invisalign comes into play. Think of it as the cool, modern cousin in the world of teeth straightening. It’s not just about looks; it’s about blending into our daily lives and letting us shine confidently. So, why are so many folks raving about Invisalign? Let’s dive in and find out why it might just be the game-changer you’ve been waiting for.

Why Do Patients Choose Invisalign Over Traditional Braces?

There’s nothing quite like feeling confident in your smile. Unfortunately, many people may suffer from mouth-related insecurities that cause them to hide behind their hands rather than embrace life’s best moments. Our team at Lippitz Orthodontics is here to change that and help you feel proud of your unique smile! One way we achieve this is through Invisalign treatment.

Some patients shy away from braces because they feel embarrassed about the bulky and noticeable metal brackets. Invisalign utilizes a series of clear aligners that gradually shift your teeth into place, making them nearly unnoticeable to the human eye.

Invisalign in Chicago and the Chicago suburbs is an increasingly popular option for those who don’t want to wear braces, and it can correct the same issues that braces do. Here are some reasons why Invisalign is such a popular option in the world of orthodontics.

Eat What You Want With Invisalign Aligners

One complaint about traditional metal braces is the fact that certain foods need to be avoided in order to keep brackets and wires secured in place. Another benefit of Invisalign aligners in Chicago is the fact that trays are removed while you are eating and drinking anything besides water, allowing you to continue enjoying the foods that you love! So, unlike traditional braces, there are no restrictions on what you can eat with Invisalign. You can enjoy all your favorite foods without worrying about damaging the brackets or wires.

It’s Comfortable

Clear aligners, like Invisalign, have revolutionized the world of orthodontics by offering unparalleled comfort, especially when compared to traditional braces. Unlike the metal brackets and wires that can poke, prod, and sometimes cause mouth sores. Clear aligners are crafted from smooth, medical-grade plastic. This design ensures a snug fit that gently guides teeth without any sharp edges or irritations. Patients can go about their day without the constant awareness of something “foreign” in their mouth, making the journey to a perfect smile a much more pleasant experience.

Enjoy Fewer Visits to the Orthodontic Office with Invisalign

One of the many perks of choosing Invisalign is the reduced frequency of orthodontic appointments. Unlike the usual grind of monthly check-ins demanded by traditional braces, Invisalign patients can enjoy a more spaced-out schedule, typically needing a visit every six to eight weeks. This not only means less time off work or school but also fewer disruptions to your daily routine. For the busy bees among us, this translates to added convenience. Plus, in the long run, fewer visits mean you save on transportation costs and time. It’s all about streamlining the process to make your journey to a perfect smile as hassle-free as possible.

Fix Most Dental Problems

Invisalign aligners are a popular orthodontic treatment that improves oral health and can fix a variety of dental problems, including:

Crowding or crooked teeth

Invisalign can fix crooked teeth by gradually shifting them into proper alignment to give you straight teeth.

Spacing

Invisalign can close gaps between teeth by gradually moving them closer together.

Overbite

Invisalign can correct an overbite by gradually moving the upper teeth back and the lower teeth forward.

Underbite

Invisalign can correct an underbite by gradually moving the lower teeth back and the upper teeth forward.

Crossbite

Invisalign can correct a crossbite by gradually shifting the upper teeth out and the lower teeth in so they come together in the proper place.

Open bite

Invisalign can correct an open bite by gradually moving the upper and lower teeth into proper alignment.

Most people are a candidate for Invisalign. If you have been told you are not a candidate for Invisalign, please call Dr. Lippitz for a free second opinion.
