Invisalign aligners are removable making them easier to keep clean compared to standard fixed braces. You will also have more freedom regarding what foods you can eat.
- Fewer trips to the orthodontist
You may be given a few sets of Invisalign aligners in advance, and this may result in less frequent orthodontic appointments. Unlike fixed braces that must be tightened regularly by an orthodontist, aligners can be easily removed and replaced by the patient.
As Invisalign aligners are clear, they are almost undetectable visually. This makes them ideal for a child or adult who is nervous about the aesthetic effects of wearing fixed braces.
Fixed braces can, on occasion, cause irritation to the patient’s cheeks and tongue. As Invisalign does not use wires, many people find wearing Invisalign aligners more comfortable than fixed braces.
