Benefits of Invisalign Over Other Straightening Options

When you visit Dr. Claire Cho to learn about straightening your teeth, you will find she recommends Invisalign to Mission Viejo or Aliso Viejo patients because of the many benefits of this method. Out of the many clear teeth aligner brands, Invisalign has become the industry standard.

Let’s look at why Dr. Cho recommends Invisalign when you want clear braces. Dentists recommend Invisalign for four main reasons:

  • Comfort
  • Predictable results
  • Convenience
  • Affordability

Comfortable Teeth Straightening

Traditional braces can hurt to wear, but Invisalign provides a comfortable teeth-straightening option. You only wear each clear aligner for a few weeks, and then it gets replaced by an updated aligner made to fit the corrected alignment of your teeth. This method increases comfort. The SmartTrack single-layer (EX30) material of the clear aligners, unlike traditional metal braces, won’t cut the inside of your gums or mouth.

Predictable Results

Dentists have come to rely on Invisalign for its dependable, predictable results. For most individuals, Invisalign can deliver straight teeth in 18 to 24 months. That produces results much more quickly than metal braces. Some people who have less severe misalignment can see results in as little as six months. It has already worked for more than one million dental patients.

Improved Convenience

Invisalign lets you straighten your teeth secretly. Since they’re clear, you can wear them to work and school without anyone seeing them. You can remove them to eat, but you can do this easily and place the aligner in a storage container while you dine. You can do the same to take school photos, attend prom or for your wedding. Taking it out for an hour or two for a special occasion will not hurt your results.

An Affordable Solution

Invisalign typically costs less than $5,000. Your dental insurance plan may pay for the Invisalign treatment. Sometimes it may be a partial payment of a percentage of the cost, or it may cover a monetary amount.
