Braces in Laguna Niguel won’t cost you your image with invisible aligners

Adults tend to find metal braces unsightly and adolescent looking. For many professionals in progressive cities such as Mission Viejo and Laguna Niguel, image is vital and braces simply aren’t an option. Of course, a crooked smile doesn’t make a good impression on business associates, friends, or romantic interests either. Thanks to modern technology and advanced science, we have a beautiful solution: Invisalign clear aligners.

All orthodontic devices work on the same basic principle. Consistent pressure will cause teeth to move gradually. However, the way that force is delivered varies widely. Invisalign does not require brackets or wires. Clear plastic aligners are custom made to snap right over your teeth, gently guiding them towards ideal alignment. Movements are accomplished in increments with a series of numbered aligners. This system achieves exceptional results, while eliminating most common complaints about braces.

Comfort

There are no wires to poke you in the cheek, and no bulky brackets. Smooth, BPA free plastic is much kinder to the soft tissues of your mouth than sharp metal. They are ultra-thin, so you will hardly know you are wearing them.

Convenience

Invisalign aligners are removable. That means you will have no restricted foods or difficulty eating. Brushing and flossing is also a snap without brackets or wires in your way. As an added benefit, your appointments can be scheduled less frequently (about six weeks apart), since there are no wires to adjust.

Confidence

Perhaps the greatest benefit of any orthodontic treatment is the ability to laugh out loud, speak your mind, and smile with confidence. Invisalign gives you that opportunity during treatment, as well as after it is complete. You can even remove them when having your photo taken, or during a special event such as a wedding or reunion. However, they should be worn a minimum of 22-23 hours every day, or treatment will be slowed.

Invisalign is the unique orthodontic system that lets you live your life and love your smile while your teeth are being straightened! If this sounds right for you, call and schedule an appointment with Dr. Alex Basti or Dr. Nina Basti.
