Would you like to obtain beautiful straight teeth with a method that is both discreet and comfortable? If so, Invisalign is the solution you’ve been looking for. The Invisalign system is comprised of custom-made transparent aligners that function by applying gentle pressure upon each tooth to move it to its proper position. Dr. Ivan Medina-Martinez is a dentist located in Bakersfield, CA, and he provides Invisalign to eligible patients.
What are the Benefits of Invisalign?
There are numerous benefits to Invisalign. These include:
- Great oral hygiene: Because you can remove your aligners you can clean them and your teeth more thoroughly throughout the whole process.
- Comfort you can count on: Invisalign aligners are thin and flexible. This means that they don’t irritate your gums.
- Protection from teeth grinding: If you tend to clench or grind your teeth while you are sleeping, Invisalign can guard your teeth during the night.
- No dietary restrictions: Because you remove your aligner when you eat and drink, there’s no need to restrict your diet.
How Can Invisalign Help Me?
Invisalign is great for correcting teeth that are widely spaced, crooked, or overcrowded. The system can also be used to correct overbites or underbites, and is suitable for older teenagers and adults.
You will wear each of your aligners for two weeks, only removing them to eat, drink, brush, and floss. Every two weeks your aligners will be upgraded as your teeth begin to shift position. Your new smile should be complete within 6-18 months.
