If you are looking for adult orthodontic treatment in downtown DC, our dental office offers Invisalign for adults and teens. The first step towards getting Invisalign is to find out if you are a candidate. Clear aligners are used in many instances to treat gaps in teeth and misalignment, but some instances may require braces.
The obvious advantage of Invisalign over traditional braces is that clear aligners are virtually invisible. Here are additional reasons people choose Invisalign over braces:
- Less maintenance: Invisalign is often done in the same dental office as your other dental care and doesn’t require many trips for adjustments.
- Less impact on speech: Invisalign is like a thin layer on your teeth, which can be less impactful on how you talk.
- Ease of hygiene: Clear aligner patients can remove their aligners whenever they need to brush or go to the dentist for a cleaning.
- Eat what you want: There are no food restrictions with Invisalign since the aligners are removed before eating and drinking.
- Less demineralization: A study has found that people with braces had more enamel demineralization than people with clear aligners.
