What is Invisalign?

A particular style of thin, transparent aligner used in orthodontic treatment goes by the brand name invisalign Tampa FL. SmartTrack is a flexible thermoplastic polymer used to make the aligner.

According to the American Association of Orthodontists, this device is intended to make orthodontic treatment “less visible” as the name implies.

Even though Invisalign aligners are clear, they fit over your teeth firmly and are considerably less obvious than the brackets and wires of conventional braces.

What types of dental issues can Invisalign correct?

Crowding and spacing difficulties, as well as some mild and moderate biting issues, can all be treated with Invisalign.

The Invisalign website claims that it can be used to treat the following dental issues:

some types of overbite, underbite, and crossbite issues

open bite

gap teeth

open bite

While still limited, research suggests that Invisalign may be more effective for some issues than others.

For instance, according to a 2017, transparent aligners may be beneficial in realigning a person's arches but may not be as effective in treating more serious biting issues.

What’s involved with wearing them?

A visit to an orthodontist is required for the first stage of the procedure, during which your mouth and jaw will be captured in 3-D. Using this picture as a guide, they'll devise a strategy for shifting your teeth into their ideal positions.

Then, your orthodontist will use that strategy to design a set of plastic aligners that are uniquely yours. Your teeth will progressively shift and move into the desired positions as a result of the pressure applied by these aligners.

You may change out one set of aligners for a new set once every week or so, as directed by your orthodontist. The aligners must typically be worn for 20 to 22 hours per day.

Pros of Invisalign

The aesthetic factor. This is a very frequent justification for selecting Invisalign Tampa FL. Compared to the wires and brackets of braces, these clear aligners are far less apparent.

You can remove them. If necessary, you can manually take the aligner out of your mouth.

Ease of cleaning your teeth. By removing the aligner, you can easily brush and floss your teeth, without having to work around wires and brackets. A 2017 studyTrusted Source also suggests this can improve your periodontal health by reducing the amount of bacteria lurking around your teeth and gums.
