Clear Aligners & Invisalign®

Clear Aligners & Invisalign®

In the past decade, orthodontic treatment has gone through many encouraging developments. More people have realized the significance of a healthy smile when it comes to their overall confidence levels. Brands like Invisalign have come up with clear plastic aligners to enhance the smiles of people. If you are considering clear aligners to improve your bite or the alignment of your teeth, we recommend you choose Invisalign by Dr. Daniel Adams at Full Smile Orthodontics.

Invisalign® Clear Aligners

Invisalign's clear aligners are manufactured using Align Technology. These aligners are made of BPA and BPS-free plastic that does not contain gluten or latex and is FDA-approved. The thin and flexible material is called SmartTrack® and is made exclusively for Invisalign aligners. 

Features of Invisalign® Clear Aligners

  • Invisalign aligners offered by Dr. Daniel Adams at Full Smile Orthodontics are made up of SmartTrack, which offers a more secure and comfortable fit than other aligner materials.
  • These clear plastic aligners slowly move your teeth to straighten them by gently applying pressure on them in a specific direction. 
  • Invisalign aligners are removable and have to be taken off while brushing your teeth, eating, or drinking non-clear liquids. 
  • You have to wear these aligners for 22 hours a day for approximately a fortnight, after which you need to switch to a new set of aligners. 
  • The treatment time varies from person to person. However, the average person may have to wear these aligners for about 6 to 12 months, depending on the severity of the malocclusion.
