An Orthodontist Can Explain the Do’s and Dont’s for Patients Using Invisalign

Virtually invisible, Invisalign is quickly replacing the traditional braces as a method of straightening teeth. Its popularity stems from the high level of comfort it has on the patient as well as being virtually invisible.

Invisalign is transparent because it is composed of a thermoplastic material which is specifically tailored to your treatment plan. When this clear aligner is placed on your teeth, it will slowly shift them to a straighter position. Many patients choose these invisible trays because they won’t restrict their diet since you remove the aligners while eating. In addition, Invisalign can effectively correct bite problems, such as overbite. If you’re already using or plan to use Invisalign, here’s a list of do’s and dont’s to get you started, according to an orthodontist.
