Invisalign a concealed device to straighten your teeth
Topic: Dentists

Orthodontics has come a long way from the distressing ‘metal mouth’ braces to newer and advanced alternatives including ‘Invisalign’; an increasingly popular system of transparent, invisible aligners which do away with the need of bonding metal or ceramic brackets to the teeth. The Invisalign system consists of a set of comfortable, custom made, removable ‘aligners’, which seem just like bleaching trays and need to be changed about every two weeks.

These Invisalign are customized to particular tooth requirements and are prepared by the dental technicians after having a jaw impression of the patient teeth. A Baltimore Cosmetic Dentist with the equipment available to him and with his experience prepares the frames to be used for designing the customized invisaligns. When worn for about 20 to 22 hours a day, they move the teeth by applying a gentle force at a desired area just like conventional braces, allowing the dentist to precisely control the force and timing of the movements of the teeth by changing sequentially to a new aligner.

This seemingly simple technology has obvious advantages; the aligners are aesthetically pleasing and barely visible, can be removed while eating and brushing – unlike traditional braces – and don’t retain plaque and tartar causing gum irritation or dental decay. The treatment is virtually painless, though some discomfort may be felt for a few days while changing to a new aligner.

Due to greater benefits and ability to retain natural beauty, invisaligns have been increasingly replacing the traditional braces. With these one can have the desired alignment of his teeth without compromising with his beauty. For more information over invisaligns you can refer Top3Dentists.com from where you can have complete information over dental treatment options and can also find a top Baltimore Cosmetic Dentist around you.
