Invisalign Warsaw, IN

Is Invisalign the Right Solution for Your Smile?

Invisalign is often chosen because it’s a more comfortable and discreet alternative to braces.  Most patients who visit our Warsaw practice to straighten their teeth are good candidates for Invisalign®. This treatment can address concerns like crooked or gapped teeth, crowding, or bite issues such as an overbite, underbite, or crossbite.

To be considered a strong candidate, you should:

• Be in good overall oral health

• Wear your aligners 20 to 22 hours each day

• Complete any necessary preparatory treatments before starting

Many patients are attracted to Invisalign’s reputation as the more comfortable and discreet alternative to traditional braces. Unfortunately, in cases of severe misalignment, Invisalign may not be the best orthodontic treatment. If you are not a good candidate for Invisalign, the dentist can let you know what other orthodontic procedures, such as braces, would help you get the smile you want.

Invisalign Aligners Vs. Traditional Braces

If you want a straighter, more attractive smile, but want to avoid the wires and metal brackets that come
with braces from an orthodontist, Invisalign at Dental Solutions in Warsaw may be just what you are
looking for. Thanks to this discreet option, treatment is as easy as wearing custom clear aligners.

Enjoy the Benefits of Orthodontics Without the Drawbacks of Braces

Both traditional orthodontics and Invisalign can improve your smile. But Invisalign's smooth, comfortable, and nearly invisible clear aligners let you smile throughout treatment and avoid the difficulties that come with metal braces. Invisalign offers the best of both worlds, with a number of benefits over traditional orthodontics, including:

Discreet Treatment
Invisalign's transparent aligners are nearly invisible during use, meaning you can confidently wear them throughout the day without worrying whether everyone is staring at your orthodontic treatment.

Comfortable Fit
The clear aligners used to straighten your teeth are made of smooth, medical-grade plastic molded to precisely fit your teeth. There are no metal brackets and no metal wires, so there's nothing that will snag or irritate the soft tissue in your mouth.

Daily Flexibility
While you need to wear your aligners for the majority of the day and at night, they are removable so that you can eat, floss, and brush your teeth easily. You can also remove your aligners, which are also called "trays," for special occasions. That flexibility is impossible with traditional braces.

Shorter Appointments
Periodic check-ups will be performed to assess your progress, but clear aligners do not require the long or uncomfortable adjustment appointments that are necessary with traditional braces. Instead, you'll just see us once a month for a helpful checkup.

No Dietary Restrictions
Braces require patients to avoid foods that are likely to get caught in their wires and brackets. With Invisalign, there are no off-limits foods or drinks.

Easy Maintenance
Most people find brushing and flossing around braces to be both difficult and time-consuming. When you have Invisalign, cleaning is as simple as taking a brush to your clear aligners.
