Invisalign vs Traditional Braces

As modern technology continues to advance, so does the practice of orthodontics. Options such as Invisalign and clear braces have filled the role of traditional treatments such as metal braces. Invisalign is a method of straightening teeth that consists of using plastic, clear aligners that fit perfectly over your teeth. Each aligner is designed to move your teeth into their correct position in your mouth.

How long does the treatment last?

Invisalign treatments typically last between 12 and 18 months. Traditional braces, on the other hand, usually remain in the mouth between 18 months and 2 full years.

Are there additional differences between Invisalign and metal braces?

Convenience – Unlike standard braces, Invisalign aligners can be removed for daily activities like eating, drinking, and dental hygiene. Meanwhile, traditional braces cannot.

Appearance – Invisalign uses clear aligners that perfectly cover your teeth. These aligners are barely noticeable while worn. Metal braces are generally quite visible in one’s mouth
