Invisalign® For Teens
 Invisalign is a type of orthodontic treatment that helps to straighten crooked teeth, as well as fix overbites and gaps between the teeth. There was a time when people had no other option besides typical metal brackets; with Invisalign, you can get custom-made aligners that can help shift your teeth into the proper position. If you have a problem with your teeth, Stansell Dentistry Associates can help to provide you with the best treatment. Why Invisalign?Invisalign moves teeth gradually, which makes them much more comfortable than traditional metal braces. Since the aligners have no brackets or wires, you do not have to fret about getting any throbbing cuts inside your mouth. Invisalign are smooth and very similar to mouthguards that lack any sharp edges. Invisalign looks so much better as they are virtually invisible aligners, which means it does not leave you with a metal-filled mouth. Most people would not even notice you are wearing Invisalign, so you can smile freely. There are no age restrictions, and even adults often choose this method. Invisalign aligners are also very convenient since they are available almost everywhere, and require fewer visits to the dentist’s office. In addition to that, Invisalign aligners can be removed effortlessly for sleeping, eating, brushing the teeth, and flossing. It allows you to have all types of food and easily practice good oral hygiene, which helps to lower your risk of contracting gum disease. You would not have to worry about particles of food getting stuck in your brackets. Moreover, Invisalign requires minimal maintenance. Frequent rinsing and daily soaking of the aligners with denture cleaner or Invisalign cleaning crystals will help maintain their appearance and prevent bacterial growth. Child OrthodonticsThe best age to see an orthodontist to address these issues is around seven years old. At this age, it is easier for our experts to identify problems your son or daughter may encounter in the upcoming years and develop a suitable solution if required. Dealing with these issues at an early stage reduces the likelihood of future tooth extraction and other problems requiring more severe treatments. In addition to that, we also provide education on caring for the teeth that are to arrive in the future, which will give them enough room to grow. Adult OrthodonticsDespite the youthful image we have in our minds of a person with metal braces, in reality the people who look for treatments related to their orthodontic problems are often over twenty. Many people hesitate to get their crooked teeth and other problems fixed, thinking it is too late, while others dismiss the idea for fear that their looks will be compromised. But now, Invisalign aligners have proven to be exceptional alternatives for improving your smile without making an obvious change to your appearance. The jawbones of people over twenty are more mature than a teenager, so it may take more time to get the expected result.
