Invisalign is an orthodontic treatment for mild to moderate orthodontic concerns that involves using a series of clear plastic retainers over a treatment period to gradually shift your teeth into position and correct the orthodontic concern. But does Invisalign actually work? How do patients feel about their results? In today’s blog we will be going over what some patients have said about their Invisalign experience and how it helped them successfully meet their smile goals.
Invisalign can treat a wide variety of problems
Invisalign is suitable for treating mild to moderate orthodontic problems in patients of all ages. Patients have reported crowded teeth, overbites, underbites, cross bites, improperly spaced teeth and more being corrected using Invisalign. However, Invisalign treatment plans are customized for each individual patient so you will need to discuss with your orthodontist whether your orthodontic concern is correctable using Invisalign.
There is no wrong time to get Invisalign
Patients of all ages seeking an alternative to traditional braces have found an answer in Invisalign. These patients can be elementary aged children just growing into their adult teeth, high schoolers concerned about the look of their smile or even seniors looking to finally correct some longstanding orthodontic concerns and have the smile they always wanted.
What do patients like about Invisalign?
Many patients have lauded Invisalign for its ease and comfort. They like that they can still eat whatever they want, they like that they don’t have to have regular adjustments made and they like that Invisalign retainers don’t make you feel like you have a mouth full of metal and rubber. Patients, especially teenagers or those in public facing careers, regularly remark on how much they appreciate the aesthetic advantages of Invisalign, that being that they are relatively invisible to the casual observer. They also like how easy it is to find out if Invisalign is right for you, with many patients finding the consultation quicker, easier and more painless than they expected.
What do patients say about their results?
Once patients have completed their Invisalign treatment they are extremely appreciative of how easy the whole process is and how much better their smile looks and feels following the treatment. Many patients also feel that they can track their progress as they change aligners, watching their smile change before their eyes.
We hope we have been able to convey to you how patients feel about Invisalign treatment and hope that their success stories can motivate you to see if Invisalign treatment is right for you.
