Ready to reimagine your smile, but despise the idea of getting harnessed to classic metal braces for 2-3 years of your life? Then Dr. Takacs has some exciting news for you!
Our Lexington, KY dentist’s office has an alternative adult orthodontic treatment program that utilizes a series of clear, virtually invisible plastic aligners to correct crooked, crowded or gapped teeth without attracting unwanted any attention!
It’s called Invisalign, and after you’ve read today’s post it will become CLEAR to you why you ought to give it a try!
Whether you are interested in Invisalign for your teenager or for yourself, all you have to do is get in touch to schedule an Invisalign consultation at one of our convenient Bluegrass locations.
Your Lifestyle Won’t Change With These “Braces”
Old-school braces would need to stay in-place for the duration of your treatment once they are attached. That could be a long, painful, and socially awkward time for you.
Luckily, with Invisalign, the equipment is not only discreet, it is also removable. You get to change your aligners out on your own at home every two weeks to keep the process moving in the right direction.
Because they are removable, you can take your aligners out at dinner time, which means they won’t be able to trap bits of food like metal braces. As such, you won’t have to avoid the foods that you love to eat. Plus, you won’t need to pack special tools for cleaning, or make special trips to the grocery.
What’s more, since there won’t be any mandatory in-office adjustments, Invisalign won’t feel like it is consuming all your free-time in the same way that a typical orthodontic treatment can.
Invisalign Aligners Are Easy To Keep Clean
You and/or your teenager will enjoy how easy it is to keep your mouth fresh and clean with Invisalign. You simply have to remove your “clear braces,” rinse them under warm water, and pop them back into place when you are through. You can also keep brushing and flossing your teeth just like you always do.
You Can Keep Your Teen Accountable For Progress
If you are interested in Invisalign for your teen, instead of yourself, you are bound to have special concerns. Dr. Takacs knows all too well that an orthodontic treatment is a serious investment of your time and money. Because teenagers can be lax and forgetful at times, it is good to have a way to keep them on track. That’s why the teen version of Invisalign has come equipped with a special feature to allow you to hold your teen accountable for following the directions each day.
Don’t worry, there won’t be any spying or nagging them about their obligations. All you have to do is check their equipment. Here’s how it works: when the aligners are worn properly (as in most of the day, every day), a small blue dot on the back of the aligners will slowly disappear. This will let you know that everything is still moving along on schedule.
The Transformation Happens Fast
Perhaps the best part is that an Invisalign treatment normally wraps up in only about a year, which is a big improvement over the 2-3 years regular braces would put you through.
When it is over, the health and appearance of your smile (or your teen’s smile) will have been given a BIG boost!
