Need Straight Teeth? Get Discreet Orthodontics In East Longmeadow, MA [Blog]

People think about braces, and they usually think about teenageers. This is when many people straighten their teeth because, although yours never stop moving completely, they slow down considerably by then.

But everyone deserves the comfort, health, and confidence that comes with straight, even smiles. That’s why you need to call Dores Dental at 413-241-3995 to get Invisalign orthodontics in East Longmeadow, MA. This discreet treatment can correct gaps and crooked teeth, and for many people, it’s much better than traditional metal and wire braces.

Benefits Of Invisalign

Everyone wants a smile that’s straight, but why choose Invisalign? This modern treatment has several benefits over traditional braces.

• Less time until completed: Typically, braces takes 2-3 years before your teeth are straight and even. It’s worth it, but with Invisalign, you can be finished in as little as one year. That saves you 1-2 years of orthodontic work!
• Remove them when you want: Braces need to be bonded with your teeth in order to work, so once they’re put in place, removing them is very hard work. Not so for Invisalign, which you can remove whenever you want. You’ll still need to wear them over your teeth most of the day, but it’s nice knowing you can pop them out when needed.
• Very hard to notice: Teens don’t like how metal looks in their mouth, never mind adults. Thankfully, Invisalign is made from a smooth, clear plastic. When worn, it’s practically invisible. That means you can feel much more comfortable with this treatment.

Invisalign is also much easier to live with than braces. For example, there is a long list of foods you cannot eat with braces. You also have to be careful, as getting hit in the mouth can really damage your lips and gums. But with Invisalign, you take them out when you eat. That means no restrictions! And since they’re smooth plastic, they are much easier on your mouth.

Why Straight Teeth Matter

Can’t you just learn to live with crooked, uneven teeth? Technically, you could — but that’s a bad idea.

First, a crooked smile is unhealthy. Your teeth are designed to come together a certain way when you bite down. When you have some teeth out of alignment, they tend to grind against other teeth, creating worn spots on your enamel. These teeth get weaker over time and are more likely to have chips, cracks, and tooth decay. It can also put extra stress on your jaw muscles because that’s not how your teeth are supposed to come together, and that leads to TMJ disorder.

But it’s also embarrassing. Wondering what people will think when they see your crooked smile can take away your self-esteem and confidence. Getting straight teeth with Invisalign helps. Not only will it correct how your smile works, there’s no obvious metal to make orthodontics embarrassing.
