Invisalign can be the "Clear" choice for you!
Some people have a hard time believing that clear plastic trays can move your teeth like traditional braces.
The science behind tooth movement is a consistent light pressure to cause changes in the periodontal ligament. These small changes in the ligament will allow the crown and root of the tooth to move into a new position. With Invisalign, each plastic clear tray moves your teeth a small amount just like braces and wires.
Here at Bales Orthodontics, we utilize technologically advanced treatments to get the best results possible. This means that our patients now have more options when it comes to achieving the smile they have always wanted.
Invisalign aligners are removable, which will allow you the freedom to remove them when you eat, clean your teeth, or for a special occassion.
Each aligner is worn for 2 weeks and it is imperative that you wear them for 22 hours a day in order for the teeth to move properly. As a patient, you will receive 3-4 sets of aligners and visit our office every 6-8 weeks until your treatment is finished. The aligners are very comfortable and your end result is the same as if you had traditional braces!
