You may think the hi-tech Invisalign system of straightening teeth is just for kids. In fact, Invisalign clear aligners provide a popular alternative to traditional braces for adults as well.Besides producing an attractive smile, Invisalign appliances hold an important health advantage over old-school fixed metal braces.Because Invisalign aligners are removable, they make oral hygiene much easier than trying to brush around the brackets of conventional braces. This can significantly lessen the risk of cavities and gum disease.Straightening misaligned teeth also results in a healthier mouth, with teeth more likely to last a lifetime.As well as fixing problems such as crooked, gapped or crowded teeth, Invisalign can also correct an irregular bite function. If your upper and lower jaws don’t come together properly, it can lead to further oral health problems including gum infection, cavities, and even tooth loss.
