Invisalign: 10 things you should know about the clear braces

-

The invisible, removable braces from Invisalign are often used by teenagers and adults to correct their misaligned teeth.

Here are 10 things about Invisalign braces everyone should know about if they are interested in this orthodontic treatment:

  1. Adults in particular can use Invisalign.

Orthodontic corrections are possible at any age. While classic braces are usually used in children and adolescents, modern braces like Invisalign®  are particularly suitable for treatment in adults. Due to their nature, they are hardly noticeable in everyday life and can be used very flexibly. Working people in particular benefit from this flexibility during their orthodontic treatment.

  1. There are no restrictions on eating.

Those who wear conventional fixed braces have to forego some food in order to prevent the braces from becoming detached or slipping and thus delaying the treatment process. If the misaligned teeth are corrected with Invisalign, you will never have to worry about what to eat or not. Since these clear aligners can be removed before eating, any food can be consumed without hesitation. Teeth cleaning does not require any additional effort either.

  1. Over 9 million patients have already been treated with Invisalign.

Align Technology, the company behind the technology, has existed since 1997. To date, more than nine million patients have been treated with the aligners worldwide. The treatment process is tried and tested and has proven its effectiveness as well as its practical use in about 20 years.

  1. All aligners are custom made.

Before a treatment with the aligners begins, a detailed examination of the misaligned teeth is carried out. In the course of this examination, x-rays, photos and dental impressions are made. With the help of the images made by iTero scanner, individual aligners are planned and manufactured for the patient with meticulous detail, so that the respective tooth misalignment can be corrected comfortably and gently.

  1. Treatment includes regular check-ups.

As part of an Invisalign treatment, regular follow-up checks are carried out by the treating orthodontist. These regular examinations are used to check the success of the treatment and allow an adjustment if deviations in the planned development are found. As a general rule, the patient visits the practice every 6 to 8 weeks.

  1. An aligner is worn for around two weeks.

A set of aligners are usually worn for two weeks. The individual wearing time can vary in the course of treatment, depending on the progress.

  1. The duration of treatment is determined individually.

While minor deformities can be corrected within about six months, treatment for larger deformities takes significantly longer. In principle, the duration of the treatment is similar to that of conventional orthodontic treatment, it tends to be even faster.

  1. It is normal to get used to it.

If you experience mild pain at the beginning of a treatment, this is not a cause for concern. As with traditional orthodontic treatment, a certain period of getting used to is normal for treatment with Invisalign. Due to the low and precisely planned forces in the individual aligners, the patients no longer feel any pressure or pain after a short time and can wear the aligners without restrictions.

  1. The optimal wearing time is around 22 hours.

If you want to achieve optimal results, you should wear the aligners for about 22 hours a day. It is intended that the aligners will only be removed for brushing teeth and eating. Under certain circumstances, a shorter wearing period can also be agreed individually, provided that it makes sense from a medical point of view.

  1. With the Invisalign treatment, tooth gaps can also be closed.

Some people have missing teeth and are unhappy with them. They avoid laughing carefree and try to hide their teeth by smirking. Teeth gaps can easily be eliminated with orthodontic treatment. Invisalign is particularly suitable for the effective treatment of such teeth gaps. However, it is not only that wide spaces are corrected harmoniously, other disruptive misalignments of the teeth can also be successfully eliminated simultaneously.

Now at this point, you might be thinking how much does Invisalign cost?

An orthodontic correction treatment can, depending on the individual effort and case, have different costs. For minor corrections, Invisalign is priced between €1500 and € 3500. For more complex cases, Invisalign can cost between € 3500 – € 7500, depending on the clinic location and experience of the orthodontist.
