\"\"There was a time in history when tin grins<\/em> were the mainstream way to straighten teeth<\/strong>. For adolescents and teens that were not born with perfect alignment, bracket-and-wire braces<\/strong> were the only way to fly. After all of those often uncomfortable months of getting wires tightened and twisted, fastening rubber bands from the top to the bottom, and not being able to eat popcorn or chew gum, the expectation was that you should continue wearing a retainer for a set period of time. This was a long and arduous process to attain straight teeth, but it was the only choice. Your\u00a0Greenfield dentists<\/strong><\/a>, Drs. Bagley, Goodwin, and Hrinda, explain how patients now have an easier option when straightening their teeth, thanks to a virtually invisible form of customized teeth straighteners<\/strong> called Invisalign<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Benefits of Invisalign<\/h2>\n

Invisalign<\/strong> is a great choice for people with over-crowding, cross-bites, poor spacing, under-bites, and over-bites. We see a lot of patients who sported traditional bracket-and-wire braces<\/strong> when they were younger, but neglected their retainer wearing recommendations, and ended up with crooked teeth<\/strong> all over again. This is a common issue, and nothing to feel bad about. Thankfully, with Invisalign, you don\u2019t need to worry about anyone knowing that you\u2019re going through a teeth straightening<\/strong> process. You can go to work, out on dates, and even get your picture taken with no one being the wiser. You can also take the aligners out when you eat and brush your teeth, so there\u2019s no need to worry that you have food caught in your braces.<\/p>\n

The Invisalign Process<\/h2>\n

When you choose Invisalign<\/strong>, your dentist will take impressions and measurements of your teeth. Through the use of 3D computer imaging, you\u2019ll be able to see a projection of your straightened teeth<\/strong> before treatment even starts. Your specifications will be sent to a lab where a series of customized clear plastic aligners will be manufactured specifically for your orthodontic needs<\/strong>. The entire process of straightening with Invisalign usually takes only about a year.<\/p>\n
