Tyrone, GA area dentist offers Invisalign as an alternative to braces

When Tyrone, GA area patients are told they need to consider braces for straightening the smile, many are immediately turned off by the idea. The concept of metal brackets and wires covering the teeth for months on end to achieve a straighter smile makes them reconsider. However, individuals with mild to moderate misalignment may be suitable for Invisalign.

Invisalign explained

Dr. Anh Khieu of Tyrone, GA is proud to offer Invisalign as another way to straighten the dental arch and the bite. Invisalign works differently from conventional braces. Instead of using brackets and wires, Invisalign works by using clear aligner trays that are worn day and night to gently reposition the teeth.

Advantages of Invisalign

Invisalign treatment has many advantages:

• Comfortable
• Affordable
• Discreet
• Easy to use
• Easy to clean
• Effective

Am I a candidate for Invisalign?

Patients who love the idea of Invisalign aligner trays to straighten the smile are often worried they are not candidates. Invisalign is best for those with mild to moderate misalignment. This may include the bite which, with improper alignment, can result in damage and wear and tear to the existing teeth and any restorations within the smile such as crowns or bridges. Patients considering Invisalign are welcome to schedule a consultation appointment with Dr. Anh Khieu along with x-rays and an evaluation to decide if Invisalign would be beneficial. If patients are not candidates for this treatment, the dentist may suggest alternative solutions such as composite resin bonding, porcelain veneers, or traditional orthodontics, if necessary, for severe malocclusion.
