Invisalign Braces in Markham

Invisalign braces

Rejuvenate your smile with Invisalign braces at Upper Markham Smiles in Markham. Invisalign braces are orthodontic aligners that straighten teeth without regular metal braces. They cost more than typical braces, but they are a better option than awkward metal braces. These custom-made plastic aligners move your teeth into the proper position effectively.

How long Invisalign treatment takes depends on how complex the misalignment of your teeth is. It may take up to 2 years to complete, but results can be seen in just a few months, and it is much faster than traditional braces. Invisalign is ideal for teens and adults who want to straighten their teeth.

If you are concerned about the cost, ask the dentist about payment options to make it easier to smile with Invisalign braces.

Benefits of Invisalign Braces

  1. As the name suggests, these braces are almost invisible. They are transparent, so the person you are talking to will not be distracted.
  2. The aligners are made from a flexible plastic, so they are very comfortable to wear.
  3. The aligners can be removed easily, so you can brush and floss your teeth properly.
  4. Invisalign braces take less time to fit, and if fitted properly they don’t need maintenance for approximately 6 weeks.
  5. Metal braces come with many food restrictions. Because aligners can be removed and put back easily, you can eat whatever you want, whenever you want.
  6. Stopping teeth from crowding and closing gaps between teeth can prevent many gum infections.

FAQ

Is it safe to sleep with Invisalign?
Yes, it is safe. Invisalign works through constant pressure, so it is important to wear your aligners while you sleep — for the best results you need to wear them 20 to 22 hours a day.
How long does treatment with Invisalign braces take?
It depends on the case. Treatment may take up to 2 years, but results can be seen in just a few months.
Are Invisalign braces painful?
Invisalign braces are more comfortable than metal braces, but you may feel some mild discomfort.
How do I clean my Invisalign aligners?
To remove food particles and debris that build up during the day, clean your aligners with a soft-bristled toothbrush (not the one you use for your teeth) and a mild, clear liquid soap.
Can I eat and drink while wearing Invisalign braces?
No — remove your aligners before eating. Otherwise you risk breaking them and delaying your treatment.
