Enjoy your Freedom to smile with Invisalign

There is no denying the fact that every one of us wants to have the most attractive smile, some of us are even gifted with the perfect one, but still we cannot. The prime reason being we all are afraid of showing the disorders in our teeth, whether small or big and secondly we just don’t want to go the dentist. But the perception is slowly fading away with the growing number of friendly and cost effective treatments like Tooth whitening, Veneers, Crowns & Bridges, Dental inlays, etc.

The newest concept to join the list of multiple options available for straightening the misaligned teeth is Invisalign. As the name suggests, the alignment is done with the help of custom-made plastic trays that are transparent which makes the movement of teeth in to the desired position visible. There is no use of metal wires, that is, braces and one is saved from the discomfort associated in wearing them such as cuts and scratches. 
The entire process is simple and requires one to wear the aligners, that is, plastic trays for 20-22 hours a day that are changed every 2 weeks. Unlike braces, the trays can be removed for brushing thereby assisting to maintain the gums as well. The trays also help to make the gaps between the teeth look smaller or even disappear. 
Invisalign usually takes a month but the actual duration of the treatment depends upon the nature of alignment required. So the treatment offers customization for each individual and involves a series of steps to make you smile always. 

Another advantage of the treatment is that it also helps to whiten teeth apart from offering minimal discomfort.
