How Important Is A Smile?


Contributed by Specialist Dental Group® 

In many developed countries, braces are considered the normal ‘rite of passage’ for adolescents. But is there a way to straighten your teeth without the awkward few years of growing up with a metal mouth? 

If you haven’t heard, Invisalign is the new “it” in orthodontics. It is a series of clear removable aligners and an alternative to traditional metal dental braces.

Here are some of the benefits of Invisalign (clear invisible braces):
  • Invisible - Teeth can be straightened invisibly. Like “contact lens” but for the teeth, these aligners are specifically customized so every aligner you get is made-to-measure.
  • Removable - Invisalign aligners are removable. This means that you can carry on with your normal routine and you can eat and drink with no dietary restrictions.
  • Comfortable - Unlike traditional metal braces, these sets of clear aligners do not have wire brackets which create friction in the mouth. This means that you will not have ulcers or abrasions.
As an addition bonus, many people find themselves snacking substantially less due to the inconvenience of having to brush their teeth and putting the aligners back on every time they snack. So you can lose weight and achieve aesthetic results at the same time!

What is holding back your smile? Specialist Dental Group’s orthodontics team is Invisalign-accredited. We are happy to help you achieve your dream smile.
