1. Invisalign is
more comfortable than convention metal braces because the
aligners can be removed to eat, brush and floss.
2.
With Invisalign, there is less chance of developing
cavities, gum problems or bad breath which can be a problem
with convention metal braces.
3. Invisalign means there
is less chance of injuries to mouth and teeth when
participating in sports. Protective mouth guards are also
much easier to make and to wear with Invisalign than with
conventional metal braces.
4. There is no need for
headgear or diet restrictions with Invisalign.
5.
Teenagers are less self-conscious about smiling because
Invisalign is virtually invisible. The aligners can also be
removed for a few hours for special occasions such as class
pictures or social events.
6. Parents can be assured
that teenagers are wearing the Invisalign aligners for the
proscribed amount of time by checking the “blue dots” on the
aligners. These change from blue to clear when the aligners
are worn correctly.
