Invisalign aligners as the name suggests is invisible braces and are immensely popular today. The revolutionary aligners is shaping beautiful smiles all over the world. If you are looking out to straighten a crooked smile or a bad bite, Invisalign can be the best option for you. In this blog, we will list out the five prominent reasons as to why patients must choose the crystal clear aligners over others. 

• Oral health 

The appearance of your smile is as important as your oral hygiene and health. The Invisalign aligners can help you maintain good oral hygiene that can do wonders for your teeth and gums. Unlike most traditional braces, you can speak and eat properly with your Invisalign aligners. Regular brushing of teeth and cleaning the aligners carefully helps in the prevention of dental disease and bad breath. We remind our patients to keep in mind that Invisalign treatment is not any different from your normal routine. The easy to maintain Invisalign routine has made it a popular choice over the years. 

• You can eat your favourite foods 

The best thing about Invisalign is that you can eat a variety of foods and all that you please, anytime. It is no hassle to take off the plastic aligners to eat a meal or a snack, clean the teeth and the aligners and put them back on. Think twice when you drink coloured beverages with your aligners on. You could run the risk of staining them. 

• No sharp edges 

The traditional metal braces usually have sharp edges that could bite into your gums. Aligners are more rounded and subtle. It takes just a few days to get used to the feel of the trays in the mouth. However, as aligners are a custom fit, there could be a good chance of designing them with edges that may cut. You can use a fine-grit nail buffer to smooth the edges of the trays. 

• White teeth 

Wearing aligners all day protects the enamel from staining and discolouration. Besides, you will have to invest time in a whole lot of brushing especially after every meal. In the long run, you will expect to see clean and well maintained teeth. 

• Confident smile 

            With your Invisalign aligners on, you can achieve a straight, confidence boosting smile that can also enhance the overall appearance of your face.
