Why Invisalign® is a Popular Choice
Invisalign® is a method of straightening the teeth and correcting orthodontic problems that can, in many cases, work the same as traditional braces. Invisalign® braces are essentially a series of clear aligners designed with the help of 3D imaging that slowly move your teeth into the desired position. Clear Smile Dental is a south Edmonton dental clinic that offers Invisalign® braces. We'd like to tell you a bit about how Invisalign® works and why we believe it represents the future of orthodontics.

How Do Invisalign® Braces Work?
Invisalign® braces slide right over the teeth and encourage them to shift slightly in their positioning when worn. Each set of Invisalign® trays is worn for about one to two weeks at a time, and each set has a slightly straighter alignment than the set worn before. This continues until your teeth have been moved into the desired position. Clear Smile Dental uses 3D digital scans to ensure the utmost accuracy of your aligner trays for best results.
Invisalign® treatment generally lasts from nine to 15 months, though treatment time can vary on a case by case basis. You'll be asked to visit the Clear Smile Dental clinic about every six to eight weeks for a short checkup to ensure that treatment is progressing as expected.
What Are the Benefits of Invisalign® Braces?
Just like traditional orthodontics, Invisalign® braces can help oral health by giving you a straighter smile. Teeth that are straighter and more properly aligned are also easier to clean and therefore less susceptible to tooth decay.
You should keep your aligners in all the time except to eat meals and snacks or to brush and floss your teeth. You can drink all the beverages you regularly enjoy, even coffee and red wine. The aligners may discolour a little, but that’s a rare problem since you change to another set after 7-14 days. This means you won't have to limit your diet and that you can take proper care of your oral health.
Best of all, at Clear Smile Dental, our imaging technology allows you to see your entire treatment plan and expected final results ahead of time, showing you exactly the straight smile that you have to look forward to.
