Invisalign is a subtle orthodontic treatment used to fix crooked teeth and give you a better smile

There are many benefits to the ‘naked’ orthodontic treatment Invisalign. Here at Curtis Couch D.D.S in Thousand Oaks we are passionate about advanced dental treatments which includes treatments that improve on the more traditional, or old-fashioned procedures. Invisalign is one of the most popular and efficient treatments to date that have the ability to replace braces which are dreaded by most people with crooked teeth. Invisalign has improved drastically on traditional braces as the procedure can provide the same level of treatment without compromising your appearance during treatment.

No more braces, no more metal brackets

The most dreaded part of braces is the unsightly metal brackets which are attached to the front of each individual tooth. These are then connected by wires to pull the teeth into alignment gradually over a period of 6 months to a couple of years. Apart from being aesthetically displeasing braces brackets can also cause trouble in the mouth including causing cuts and ulcers and general discomfort due to their abrasive surface. Invisalign provides a completely comfortable and non-abrasive surface that is just as smooth as natural teeth.

Invisalign is a removable solution to crooked teeth

One of the greatest things about Invisalign is that it is removable technology. This means that if you have a special event such as a wedding or formal you’ll be able to fully remove your Invisalign treatment during the event. Although Invisalign is virtually invisible many people choose to remove their Invisalign for short periods of time when they know they’re going to be consuming sticky foods food or if they want to feel completely free during their event while not risking losing their Invisalign aligners.

Curtis Couch D.D.S will consult with you about your options

While Invisalign can be used for most crooked teeth cases there are some rare cases where Invisalign will not be the best option for you. Cases that require braces include overlapping teeth which may require extractions and then specialised treatment. Curtis Couch D.D.S is passionate about providing thorough dental treatment and he will sit down and consult with you about your options when it comes to orthodontics or our range of other dental treatments. If you have seen another orthodontist who has recommended you receive traditional braces treatment you can also visit our practice in Thousand Oaks for a second opinion.

Enjoy your smile at all aspects of treatment

Unlike traditional braces, where you have to endure an unpleasant appearance for the duration of your treatment, with Invisalign you can reap the benefits of a clear smile simultaneously as your teeth straighten. This is why Invisalign is so popular with our patients; it allows you to partake in normal activities without worrying about braces detracting from your face. If you’ve been considering mending your crooked teeth there has never been a better treatment than Invisalign and better yet, it is specially designed to be used with fully formed adult teeth so it is never too late to get that perfect smile you’ve always desired.
