Invisalign® aligners continue to be a popular treatment for patients. Not only can it be a speedier road to straighter, healthier teeth, it also results in healthier teeth and gums!
As Dr. Vista notes, when teeth are crowded, bacteria/plaque get stuck more easily, and it is harder to effectively brush and floss to keep your mouth clean. This creates a higher risk of cavities, gum disease, and tooth loss.
Moving teeth into straighter positions with clear aligners can result in healthier gum tissue, less tooth mobility (loose teeth), improved pocketing, while reducing the risk of tooth loss.
It can also help prevent cracked and broken teeth, by correcting occlusion (the way our teeth bite together) problems that cause certain teeth to take excessive bite force and can lead to problems.
However, working with a trained provider is essential, to ensure that the treatment is correctly customized for you. (In some cases, it can be partially covered by insurance.)
Over 16 million people have transformed their pearly whites through this treatment. Plenty of devotees have shared about their positive experience on social media…and results are also recognized by industry professionals.
