Secretly Straighten Your Smile

As desirable as it is to have a straighter smile, not everyone can tolerate wearing standard metal braces for an extended period of time. This is especially true of self-conscious teens and hard-working professionals who just have a few minor dental imperfections. Your Lawrenceville, NJ dentist can straighten out your smile secretly with an effective and discrete orthodontic treatment called Invisalign.

Having Your Smile Straightened
In the past, the only way to straighten out a smile was to use metal braces. The metal brackets are permanently affixed to each white tooth and are immediately visible when you smile. Food gets stuck between the brackets and some types of foods are completely off limits during the treatment plan. Now your dentist can improve your smile without those disadvantages using a treatment called Invisalign. 

Secretly Straightened Smile
With Invisalign, you’ll be required to wear a set of custom aligner trays for a set treatment period (usually about a year or less). Because the trays are made of a lightweight clear plastic material, most people won’t even notice that you are undergoing an orthodontic treatment. You can take the tray off if necessary in close situations or if you want to enjoy your favorite meal.

Starting Invisalign
After your Lawrenceville, NJ dentist confirms that Invisalign will help you, impressions will be made of your teeth so that a treatment plan can be started. The impressions, which are images loaded into a digital program, will show the current position of your teeth and how they will look when straightened. Your dentist will provide you with your trays at each checkup appointment (about six to eight weeks apart). You’ll be amazed by how effective these simple aligners are at straightening out your smile.
