Are You Interested in Invisalign in Mission Viejo?

We use Invisalign in Mission Viejo to straighten teeth and improve our patients' smiles. If you have been interested in straightening your teeth but have failed to do so due to the inconveniences posed by traditional braces – now is an excellent time to consider your options. We can provide you with clear aligners to wear that will be far more convenient and improve your smile discreetly. To find out if you are a good candidate for doing so, call our office to speak with a cosmetic dentist in Mission Viejo.

The majority of our patients qualify to straighten their teeth with aligners. As long as you have all of your adult teeth and are done growing, aligners can be just as effective as traditional braces. They can close gaps in between teeth, straighten them, and even work to align the jaw. In some cases (like with children), traditional braces are the best solution, but typically, aligners will work equally well. We can let you know what to expect and how long the treatment may take when you visit us for an examination and consultation.

As a cosmetic dentist in Mission Viejo, we like aligners because they can straighten teeth while improving the appearance of the teeth right away. When you wear traditional braces, each tooth has a metal bracket secured to it with wires running between those brackets, held in place by rubber bands. The entire apparatus takes up a large portion of the tooth, making it difficult to see beyond the braces. This is not the case with Invisalign in Mission Viejo. As the teeth begin to move into the correct position, everyone will be able to see your improved smile. This is a distinct advantage because instead of waiting for the treatment to be over to see your beautiful smile, you can see the improvements as soon as the first month and then continue to see the improvements throughout the treatment process.

Another reason that people prefer Invisalign in Mission Viejo is that wearing aligners is fairly convenient. They are designed to come out when you eat and brush your teeth. This means that you do not need to change your diet and can still enjoy all of your favorite foods when straightening your teeth with Invisalign. You also will not be embarrassed at meal time by food becoming stuck in between your braces. The only thing to keep in mind is that you still need to wear your aligners for around 22 hours per day so you may not snack as frequently. Also, since you can remove your aligners to brush and floss your teeth, you will not need to spend any extra time on your care routine than normal. You will not need any special tools either. This makes wearing aligners much more convenient than traditional braces.
