What is invisible orthodontics?
Advanced methods such as invisible orthodontics guarantee optimal results in those patients who are looking for a safe, discreet and effective methodology when modifying their teeth. Invisible orthodontics is in charge of determining, avoiding and treating dental and facial flaws to achieve a harmonious, aligned and functional smile.
Invisible orthodontics is a very effective and esthetic procedure that allows the teeth to be modified by means of transparent plastic splints that are custom designed for each patient.
When speaking of customized splints, these are placed in such a way that each time the aligner is replaced, it causes a controlled movement of the teeth. This movement progressively aligns the teeth according to the guidelines set by our orthodontist for each case.
The greatest benefit of this treatment, and the main difference with traditional orthodontics, is that the aligners are not fixed and are not attached to the teeth, so they can be removed for eating and brushing. They are also made of a transparent material that makes them very discreet and practically invisible to the naked eye. The great benefits of invisible orthodontics are explained below.
The benefits of invisible orthodontics
Invisible orthodontics guarantees an innovative, comfortable and discreet system designed to fix different types of problems of deviation in the position of the teeth, overcrowding, overbite, etc.
This modern treatment is one of the most successful orthodontic systems among patients of all ages, and has led to it becoming fashionable in dental clinics for the following reasons that we explain below:
An important aesthetic
This is one of the main benefits why many patients opt for invisible orthodontics, since you will not notice that you are wearing them. The transparent splints are practically invisible when you wear them and do not modify the shape of the face as can happen in conventional treatments.
Therefore, it becomes the best solution for patients who do not tolerate the possibility of having such a visible and unaesthetic object in their mouth for a prolonged period of time.
It avoids dental wear
As with other treatments, because the teeth are positioned correctly, it helps the teeth to fit perfectly, protecting them from enamel wear caused by bad bites and deviations.
Greater comfort
Invisible orthodontics offers you much more comfort and efficiency, the splints are made exclusively for the patient.
It lacks uncomfortable elements such as wires and brackets, which cause mouth sores and usual discomfort. Patients can also free themselves from the splint whenever they wish, making their routine life much more comfortable, especially when it comes to oral hygiene.
Removable system
Although it has many other virtues, the fact that it is removable is undoubtedly the most distinguishing feature of invisible orthodontics compared to other orthodontic systems.
Patients who opt for this system can decide when to put on and when to remove their appliance. This guarantees the possibility of removing the brace during important events, in daily activities such as eating, drinking, brushing teeth, etc. This is thanks to the fact that the invisible orthodontic splints have the characteristic of being removable.
Keep in mind that if a day is worn less hours than indicated, it is necessary to compensate the following days to achieve the desired effect, it is recommended to wear it about 22 hours a day.
Tailor-made treatment
Invisible orthodontic aligners are made of a high-strength thermoplastic polymer and are custom-designed for each patient.
In this way, they will adapt better to the patient’s teeth and case, allowing them to be almost unnoticeable. This tailor-made treatment is possible because it has been implemented with 3D digital radiology technology.
Guaranteed effectiveness and shorter treatment times
Invisible orthodontics is not only the most aesthetic, but also the most effective on the market. For this reason, results begin to be seen in the first months after the placement of the aligners, being an effective solution from the very first moment. This factor is fundamental for patients, since they themselves verify the effects of the splint in first person and in much shorter periods of time.
