Invisalign® Clear Braces
Achieve the Smile of Your Dreams Discreetly
Crooked teeth definitely erode smile confidence. That’s why Horsham Dental Elements offers Invisalign clear aligners for the correction of crooked teeth and other smile misalignments. As an adult with crooked teeth, you may not want to commit to the time it takes traditional orthodontics to change your smile, and you may also want to avoid the look of metal braces. Invisalign offers an alternative that helps you avoid traditional orthodontics. Read on to learn more about Invisalign in Horsham and how you can benefit from it.
How Does Invisalign Work?
Invisalign allows you to transform your smile in less time than with traditional orthodontics. And the plastic aligners are clear, so they’ll hardly be noticeable! We simply create your custom clear aligners, and you wear them. They come in a series to gradually change your smile over time. Once your smile has shifted a little, you switch to the next aligner in the series. Before you know it, your smile will be straighter, and all without the hassle of traditional orthodontics. Dr. Henkel can get you started toward a straighter smile today with Invisalign clear aligners.
The Benefits of Invisalign
We offer Invisalign clear braces because they allow our patients to enjoy a wide range of unique benefits, including:
- Appearance: Possibly the most significant advantage, Invisalign is made of clear plastic, which lets you straighten your teeth without anyone noticing!
- Confidence: Without noticeable braces, you can feel confident to smile in any professional or social setting.
- Time: Typically, Invisalign takes between 8 and 16 months to complete, which is usually a shorter treatment time than traditional braces.
- Lifestyle: Completely removeable, you won’t have to change your diet or lifestyle because of Invisalign. Just make sure your aligners are always clean.
Understanding the Cost of Invisalign
The cost of your Invisalign treatment can widely vary because no two smiles are the same. That’s why the best way to get a precise estimate is to visit our office for a consultation. Dr. Henkel will carefully examine your smile, your misalignment, and your bite alignment. After, he can recommend a personalized treatment plan that includes the total price. Usually, Invisalign is not covered by dental insurance but this will depend on your specific plan.
Caring for Invisalign
Once you start, it’s vital that you care for your aligners properly in order to ensure a successful treatment. The key is to keep your aligners clean, so they remain clear and don’t put you at risk of infection or decay. You can clean your aligners with a soft-bristled toothbrush, clear hand soap, and room temperature water. Never use hot water because it can permanently warp the plastic. Additionally, Invisalign sells their own cleaning system as an alternative option. A key tip is to place towels down on your sink and/or floor when cleaning. That way, if you drop an aligner, it’ll have something soft to break its fall and avoid damage.
