There has always been a great emphasis placed on oral health and the practice of orthodontics. However, this focus has left out a few key factors–specifically the manner in which people feel when they are forced to undergo certain procedures, like wearing traditional braces. For teenagers and adults alike, this practice often results in low self-esteem and a general disdain for wearing the important tools. This consequence of wearing traditional braces was the idea that shaped cosmetic dentistry; this was the reason for the immensely popular item entitled, Invisalign.
Essentially, this is the invisible alternative to traditional brackets and wires. Professionals construct the items using the essential measurements and requirements necessary to fix certain oral imperfections, provide them to patients, and simply ask them to follow a specialized routine where the aligners are changed every two weeks to guarantee progression. Designed for you and you alone, these clear, plastic trays are the modern approach to a vintage yet crucial practice. Smooth to the touch and invisible to the public, this has become not only the present of orthodontic medicine, but the future.
