The beautiful California smile is famous worldwide, and people living in or around Burbank,California, know that having a gorgeous smile with straight teeth gives you confidence and makes you feel that you look your best.
Traditionally, people who wanted to straighten their teeth wore bulky, uncomfortable metal braces. Today, thanks to advances in modern dentistry, there are more options for fixing a crooked smile.
Our society places high value on having a beautiful smile, and Dr. Payam Bostani of Dr. Bostani’s Advanced Dental can help you achieve that with Invisalign clear aligners.
Malocclusion is when your teeth are crooked or misaligned. While having crooked teeth can affect your smile and confidence, it also results in other concerning issues, including:
Orthodontia and Invisalign clear aligners can help you lessen the risk for these issues.
Invisalign is a clear teeth aligner that is sometimes called a clear brace. Clear aligners are ideal for correcting mild malocclusion. In many ways, Invisalign works similarly to traditional braces by using gentle, consistent forces to move your teeth into a straighter position.
The difference between Invisalign and traditional metal braces is that there is no metal involved in the Invisalign process. The “braces” are clear teeth aligners that are almost invisible. Invisalign clear aligners look similar to the type of protective mouthguards worn by athletes but are much thinner and more discrete.
When you straighten your teeth with Invisalign, you can expect the following benefits:
First, your dentist will determine if you’re a good fit for Invisalign. Good candidates for Invisalign have healthy teeth and gums, and serious malocclusion may require traditional braces.
Once your orthodontist determines that you’re a good fit for Invisalign clear aligners, the dental care team will take detailed images of your teeth and mouth and conduct a thorough examination.
The images are sent to a special lab where the aligners will be fabricated. The technicians will create a map of your teeth in detail. Then they will expand the map to show your entire teeth straightening process. You’ll be able to see how your smile will look before you ever receive your first aligner.
