Invisalign Aligners: the Clear Alternative to Braces

Invisalign treatment is an increasingly popular choice for people in Dulwich Hill looking to straighten their teeth, especially compared to traditional braces. Did you know that Wardell Dental Clinic is a Platinum Elite Invisalign provider and has been since 2015? The accolade is awarded to practices who have treated at least 300 cases, with 50 performed every 6 months which means you are in trusted, experienced hands. If you’re considering Invisalign treatment, it’s helpful to understand how it works and what the key benefits are.

Discreet

One of the biggest benefits of Invisalign treatment is that the aligners are virtually invisible. This is because they’re made from clear plastic, which means they’re much less noticeable than metal braces. This is a big advantage for adults looking to straighten their teeth, but don’t want to wear metal braces.

Comfortable

Another key benefit of Invisalign clear aligners is comfort. This is because the aligners are made from smooth plastic, which means they’re less likely to cause mouth irritation. In contrast, metal braces can sometimes rub against the mouth, causing ulcers or cuts.

Removable

In addition, Invisalign aligners can be removed for eating and cleaning, which is impossible with traditional braces. This means you can brush and floss your teeth more effectively, and you don’t have to worry about food getting stuck in your braces.

Fewer Appointments

Finally, Invisalign treatment requires fewer visits than traditional braces. With conventional braces, you need regular follow-up appointments for adjustments. With Invisalign treatment, most of the work is done with the initial scan and custom fitting. This means fewer appointments and less time spent at Wardell Dental Clinic. Your dentist can assess your individual situation and recommend the best treatment option for you. If Invisalign treatment is the right option for you, you can rest assured that you’re in good hands at our practice.
