Invisalign advantages

Think Invisalign Luton is a bit over-hyped? At Vogue Dental Care, we have worked with this aligner for years and know how it can help our patients to rebuild their smiles and self-esteem. So let’s have a look at some of the advantages it can offer you!

Discretion

Invisalign Luton is a class of aligners that is known as an invisible aligner. It is designed to fit over your teeth like a sports guard and is made from clear plastic. So, when you wear it, no one will be able to spot it.

This aligner can also be removed as and when you need to during your workday. Many adult patients have higher standards about orthodontic care, so these aligners are easier to use and fit around busy work schedules. Just make sure you wear them for around 22 hours per day or as directed by our dentist.

Comfort

During your online research, you may have heard that clear aligners are more comfortable than standard braces.

Many of our patients who have gone on to wear invisible aligners have also worn braces in the past and have told our team that the aligners are easier to manage concerning comfort. This is because they do not rely on pulling the teeth in the same way as braces; instead, aligners gently push on the teeth, moving them into the desired location gradually.

Thus, they are more comfortable to wear.

Better hygiene

If you ever knew someone who wore braces, you may remember them having to clean their braces using different kinds of brushes, interdental cleaners, floss and mouthwash.

So it is no wonder that many people would prefer to wear a removable aligner! Invisible aligners are removable, allowing you to take them out when you brush your teeth or attend dental checkups at our surgery.

This means there is a lower likelihood of you developing tooth decay or gum disease relating to the wearing of the aligner.

Cleaning

Invisible aligners are also easier to care for than standard fitted braces.

They require nothing more than rinsing under a tap and the occasional brush with a toothbrush. You can even buy specific washes for your aligners, which will help to keep them stain-free and fresh-tasting when you put them into your mouth.

You should not attempt to soak or run your aligners in hot or warm water since this can cause the plastic to melt and render the aligner useless.

App-supported

Invisalign Luton is app-supported, which means that you can download the associated app to your smartphone or tablet and begin using it to track your progress and send selfies to our team.

This will save you a lot of time since you will not have to go back and forth to our surgery unnecessarily, and you can track when you need to change between your aligners or attend appointments with us.

The app also allows us to send you instructions regarding the use of your aligners so that you will always be in the loop as to the next stage of your treatment.
