In the realm of orthodontics, Invisalign® has become a go-to solution for those seeking a discreet and flexible way to achieve a straighter smile. Springville orthodontics professionals often consider Invisalign® as a viable option for many patients.
Let’s take a look at who qualifies for Invisalign®.
Mild to Moderate Alignment Issues
Invisalign® is particularly effective for addressing mild to moderate dental misalignments. Springville orthodontists may recommend Invisalign® for patients with issues such as crowding, spacing, overbites, underbites, and crossbites within a certain range of severity. Complex cases may still require traditional braces for optimal results.
Commitment to Consistent Wear
Successful Invisalign® treatment requires a commitment to consistent wear. Patients must wear the clear aligners for the recommended 20-22 hours per day, removing them only for eating, drinking, and oral hygiene routines. A patient's commitment level and lifestyle are assessed to ensure that Invisalign® aligners can be worn as prescribed.
Adolescents and Adults
Invisalign® is suitable for both adolescents and adults. Dentists often recommend Invisalign® for older teens and adults who are responsible enough to comply with the wear schedule. The aligners are a popular choice among adults due to their discreet nature and comfort.
Healthy Teeth and Gums
Candidates for Invisalign® should have a foundation of good oral health. Orthodontists will typically assess the overall health of a patient's teeth and gums before recommending Invisalign®. Any existing oral health issues may need to be addressed before starting the process.
