The good news is, traditional metal braces\naren\u2019t the only orthodontic option. As an adult, you don\u2019t have to sacrifice\nyour professional appearance for a straighter smile anymore! Getting Invisalign\nin Virginia Beach can improve your smile by aligning your teeth all while being\npractically unnoticeable. Read on to learn more about the procedure and how it\nworks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Does Invisalign Work?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smilebydesignva.com\/invisalign.html\">Invisalign\ntreatment<\/a> consists of a series of custom-crafted aligners that slowly and\ngently move your teeth into their ideal positions. They\u2019re made from an\nFDA-approved durable and flexible clear plastic, and each set of trays will be\nexchanged about every two weeks. Treatment typically lasts between 12 and 14\nmonths depending on the severity of your misalignment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During your appointment with your dentist in Virginia Beach, they\u2019ll take impressions of your teeth to send off to a special <pwa data-pwa-id=\"pwa-4B999257EAF1E9AF528EDD0FD2C43FA8\" data-pwa-rule-id=\"SIMPLE_SPELLING\" data-pwa-category=\"spelling\" data-pwa-hint=\"Unknown word: Invisalign\" data-pwa-suggestions=\"\" data-pwa-dictionary-word=\"Invisalign\" class=\"pwa-mark pwa-mark-done\">Invisalign<\/pwa> lab to have your aligners made. They\u2019ll also be able to show you a digital model of how your teeth will gradually shift throughout your treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Are Some Benefits of Invisalign?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Invisalign is one of the most convenient and unnoticeable treatments\nto straighten your teeth. Like most orthodontic treatments, you may have to\nmake a couple of small life changes like taking out your trays to brush and floss\nmore often and before you eat. One of the most popular benefits of this\ntreatment is that because your aligners are made from a clear plastic material,\nyou won\u2019t have to deal with the cumbersome look or discomfort of metal wires\nand brackets. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because your aligners are removable, you can continue to\nenjoy all the snacks, foods, and drinks that you normally would. You can also\nkeep up with your oral hygiene easier. Instead of having to maneuver in between\nwires and brackets to get to hard-to-reach areas of your mouth, all you have to\ndo is take your trays out and brush and floss like you normally would. This makes\nit easier to avoid cavities and dental decay during your treatment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Can You Get Started?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In order to determine if Invisalign is the right treatment\nfor you, it\u2019s best to schedule a consultation with your dentist. This way, you\ncan discuss any limitations that this procedure has compared to other cosmetic\nservices. It\u2019s also a great chance to ask any questions or voice concerns you\nmay have. Invisalign can correct common dental problems like gaps in between\nteeth, certain bite problems, and crowded and misaligned teeth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you suffer from other cosmetic issues, it\u2019s best to talk\nto your dentist about what improvements you\u2019d like to be made. Start your\njourney to getting a smile that you\u2019re proud to show off all while maintaining\na professional image by getting Invisalign! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>About the Author<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Vinita Folck enjoys creating long-lasting relationships\nwith her patients by taking the time to get to know them and listen.
