It was developed around 20 years ago and has completely changed the field of orthodontics. Having said that, it\u2019s important to remember that there are always considerations to think about before making a decision about any procedure. Although Invisalign in Larchmont Village has an outstanding track record of success, you still want to make sure it\u2019s right for you! Keep reading to learn about 6 things to keep in mind before you commit.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>1. You\u2019ll Need Excellent Brushing Habits<\/h2>\n<p>When you start treatment, small, tooth-colored attachments (made of composite resin) will be put on your teeth to anchor your aligner trays. These temporary attachments are easily stained from coffee, tea, soda, red wine, etc., which makes it look like your <em>teeth <\/em>are stained.<\/p>\n<p>To prevent this, you\u2019ll want to keep a travel toothbrush on hand to remove any remaining residue after meals and snacks. And, in addition to keeping your teeth looking great, good brushing habits will help them stay healthy as well.<\/p>\n<h2>2. You\u2019ll Have To Avoid Warm Drinks When Your Trays Are In<\/h2>\n<p>Unfortunately, if you like to sip on hot coffee or tea throughout the day, you\u2019ll have to limit yourself while you\u2019re in treatment. Warm or hot beverages can warp your aligner trays, so you can only have them when your trays are out. And since you must wear your trays at least 22 hours a day to get your results on time, you\u2019ll only be able to hot drinks with meals. In fact, it\u2019s a good idea to only drink plain water while your trays are in.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Snacking Isn\u2019t Recommended<\/h2>\n<p>One of the advantages of Invisalign that people love most is being able to remove their trays before meals. But, again, since you need to keep your trays in at least 22 hours a day, snacking frequently can prevent you from getting your results on time. To avoid this, make it a point to eat 3-4 times a day without snacks in between.<\/p>\n<h2>4. Alternative Treatments May Work Better For Severe Problems<\/h2>\n<p>Orthodontic treatment is a great investment, but it\u2019s crucial that you get the right option for your needs to get the best results. While Invisalign works beautifully for many bite and alignment issues, more severe problems are usually better treated with traditional braces.<\/p>\n<h2>5. You May Need Additional \u201cFinishing\u201d Aligners<\/h2>\n<p>Depending on your needs, you may need some fine-tuning after your initial treatment is complete. This simply involves wearing another set of \u201cfinishing\u201d aligners to make small movements that will put the finishing touches on your smile.<\/p>\n<h2>6. Invisalign Is Absolutely Worth It<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gellerdentistry.com\/invisalign.html\">Invisalign<\/a> requires commitment on your part to give you the best results, but it\u2019s well worth it. In fact, Invisalign has a 96% satisfaction rate among patients, which speaks volumes. By investing the time and energy into completing your Invisalign treatment as directed, you\u2019ll have an aligned bite and a beautiful smile for life!<\/p>\n<h2>About the Author<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gellerdentistry.com\/meet-the-doctors.html\">Dr. Gloria Garcia-Geller<\/a> is an Invisalign-certified dentist who loves offering a comfortable, discreet, and effective alternative to metal braces.
