Orthodontist In Santa Clarita Discusses Invisalign “Braceless” Treatment
A Santa Clarita Orthodontist explains Invisalign, a “Braceless” alternative to traditional metal braces.
“If you dream of achieving a healthy, beautiful smile, but aren’t thrilled about the idea of wearing braces, orthodontic treatment with Invisalign may be an option for you,” said officials at Embrace Your Smile Orthodontics in Santa Clarita.
Invisalign treatment begins by using a series of custom-made aligners created specifically for you by Dr. Gilbertson, Dr. LeCornu and Dr. Weber.
The aligners are made of comfortable and virtually invisible plastic that are slipped over your teeth.
Your teeth will gradually start to shift into their correct position from wearing the aligners based on the treatment plan.
One of the most popular options for teens and adults, invisible braces are just that: “Invisible!”
These “clear aligner braces” are actually removable, which reduces many of the diet restrictions usually combined with traditional braces.
“Clear aligners are removable trays that straighten your teeth just like braces.”
Often, there are no issues with the lip or cheek because there are no metal braces inside the mouth.
Ceramic Braces
Ceramic (or Porcelain) braces are not as visible as metal braces, which makes a great option for adult patients.
These braces can be clear or “tooth color” so they are not as noticeable as the others.
Orthodontist In Santa Clarita On The Advantages Of Getting Early Treatment
A Santa Clarita Orthodontist discusses the importance of children getting early treatment to reduce, and sometimes, prevent certain teeth and jaw issues that could become more serious in the future if left untreated.
Embrace Your Smile Orthodontics in Santa Clarita follow the American Association of Orthodontists’ recommendation that children visit an orthodontist at the first sign of an orthodontic problem, and no later than age 7.
By the age of 7, a child should have enough permanent teeth to determine if any orthodontic problem exists or is developing.
There could be certain bite problems emerging, so treating and correcting the growth of the jaw is the main goal. Also, early treatment can help make room for their permanent teeth to come in properly, which can lessen the chance of more tooth extractions in the future.
