When teeth are crowded in your mouth, it can cause bacteria to gather between the teeth leading to periodontal disease and more serious dental procedures. The first visit for clear braces consists of getting x-rays, photos, and then impressions of your teeth.
The impressions are submitted directly to Invisalign with a prescription by our dentist on how the movement should occur. These clear braces work with multiple trays that are changed out over a period of time (varies from a week to even a month).
In less than one year, our patients with clear braces can see an improved smile.
Traditional braces alternatives not only help straighten the teeth but also encourage patients to brush and floss more effectively to remove plaque and bacteria. Our team has noticed that patients who received Invisalign treatment have seen reduced pockets, which means their mouth is now healthier overall.
TMJ is another disorder that may benefit from the use of Invisalign. The disorder is caused by a bite that isn’t aligned properly. Invisalign can help eliminate a lot of these symptoms just by correcting a bite.
Patients in Brooklyn, NY can benefit from having their own custom-fit Invisalign trays to move their teeth to their desired positions gradually. This allows their teeth to appear straighter as well as be easier to clean. We offer dental examinations and consultations to those interested in Invisalign.
