Invisalign  is an alternative treatment to straighten your teeth without the need for braces. The system uses 3D computer imaging technology with a series of clear removable retainers (known as aligners) to straighten crooked teeth invisibly. The aligners can be removed for daily necessities such as eating, drinking, brushing and special events. There are no metal wires or bands that irritate your mouth and they are comfortable and convenient to wear. The Texas City Dental in Texas City is conveniently located near La Marque, Galveston, and the Hitchcock area is conveniently located near the HEB and ROSS market complex. ,  in order to diagnose your condition in order to diagnose your condition.for any type of Clear Aligner Dental Treatment ..

The Process:

Examination: An orthodontist first examines your teeth and facial profile, and checks whether you are suitable for Invisalign or conventional braces. Invisalign is ideal for people who do not have severely crooked teeth.

Treatment Plan: A treatment plan would be developed specifically for you by our dentists through the Invisalign software. Impressions of your teeth, or a scan, will be taken for the Invisalign system to custom- mould a series of clear, removable aligners that will gradually move your teeth to a new smile.

Wearing: You will receive a series of aligners along with instructions. Generally, you are advised to switch to a new aligner every two weeks as your teeth move.

 Treatment Duration: You would be required to wear each set of aligners day and night, removing them only when you want to eat, brush and floss your teeth. Your teeth will move little by little as time goes by, and your orthodontist will review the progress regularly. This treatment usually lasts for about a year, with complex cases needing about 2 years.

Benefits of Invisalign

The number one reason why patients are attracted to getting an Invisalign aligner over conventional braces is that they are virtually invisible. The aligner is practically invisible, removable, comfortable and safe, leading to less build-up of unwanted plaque, and lower risk of decay and gum disease.  

Comfortable

Invisalign boasts a smooth plastic surface that produces no discomfort around the mouth lining.As for traditional braces, you might experience more emergencies, such as a poking wire/broken bracket, which can be very uncomfortable. Brackets may also initially rub against the side of your mouth, producing irritation, discomfort, and even open sores. Invisalign is also BPA free. 

Removable and Easier to clean

However, this is not a problem for patients who choose to wear Invisalign aligners. Oral hygiene is easier to maintain as the aligners can be removed, leading to less build-up of unwanted plaque, and lower risk of decay and gum disease. Another benefit of having removable aligners is that you have the ability to eat whatever you wish.
