Veering Away From The Traditional Braces And Gearing Towards The New Invisalign

We have always envied Hollywood stars because of their perfect features. But we all know that behind that perfection is a lot of cosmetic surgery. It is no secret and cosmetic surgery is considered normal in Hollywood. This is why it is a known fact that Tom Cruise had braces to straighten his teeth. It’s the same with Faye Duncan, the award-winning actress. But did you or any other person see them sporting braces? Tom Cruise always flashed his million dollar smile but we never saw any metal brackets on his teeth. This is because they were wearing Invisalign which is made of clear plastic that is completely unnoticeable from the outside of the mouth.

If you, like Tom Cruise, do not want to sacrifice your appearance in exchange for metal braces, you can opt for Invisalign instead. The good news is that you do not have to be a Hollywood star just to get it. This cosmetic dentistry procedure is affordable and anyone can avail of this treatment. Unless you announce it to the world, no one needs to know that you are wearing Invisalign except your dentist of course.

The beauty of this treatment is that aside from being unseen, it does not affect your daily habits at all. Invisalign gently work its way and aligns teeth into the correct position. Our Calgary dentists are trained to get correct and accurate imprints of your teeth which will then be used to get the right size of the Invisalign.

Invisalign shortens the amount of time it takes for traditional braces to correct the teeth. The average time for Invisalign to work is one year. But it’s a case to case basis and this does not apply to all patients who are using Invisalign. It may take longer to work on patients with major teeth problems. There is also what is known as the Invisalign Express which straightens and corrects minor teeth problems in as early as 20 weeks. There is also the matter of self-discipline. Although the aligners are removable, the patient is still required to wear it all the time except when eating and cleaning the teeth. It is also crucial that you visit your dentist on the date of your scheduled appointments. Invisalign will need to be adjusted every two weeks. Just follow all your dentist’s instructions and in no time at all, your teeth will be straightened.

It’s a versatile treatment that allows you to continue your daily habits and you do not need to compromise your image. Get a start on those teeth by visiting a certified cosmetic dentist trained in using Invisalign on their patients.
