Invisalign is a clear set of hard plastic aligners that are fitted for your mouth and whose work is to align your teeth into proper position. Invisalign is a preferred choice for adults and teens because they are practically invisible due to being clear.
These aligners are much more physically comfortable to wear as there are no wires or brackets hence you don’t have to worry about getting any painful nicks or cuts in your mouth. Since Invisalign is clear, it doesn’t leave you with a mouth full of metal which make them more attractive to the eye, and most people won’t even know you are wearing them.
Invisalign aligners can be removed for eating, brushing your teeth and flossing which cannot be done with braces. They require minimal maintenance. They can get dingy over time when you wear them, but you can freshen them by using a toothbrush dipped in a small amount of bleach and water. Scrubbing them for a minute will eliminate any stains.
More and more attachments go along with Invisalign. The attachments are usually enamel ridges that stick to your teeth in a way that is similar to brackets in metal braces and are used to click into the aligners so that they fit better and can more effectively shift your teeth into proper position. Attachments make Invisalign much more noticeable, which can mean you look more like you’re wearing actual braces.
