Invisalign is invisible and far more discreet than metal braces or similar dental appliances. You won't feel embarrassed showing your smile or talking to people about it. You can easily remove it, so you can clean your mouth after eating. The popular device is made from polyurethane, a medical-grade plastic.

The device can be easily inserted, reducing the discomfort that is often associated with metal counterparts. The structure is smooth so you don't get blisters or oral sores. Adults who want to improve their smiles often choose clear invisalign dental braces as a great option, since metal teeth are more common in teenagers. Professionals can improve their smiles while maintaining their professional image.

The dentist is qualified to prescribe this technology by taking a scan of the patient's teeth. The data is transmitted to a computer, where a high-detail replica of each tooth is created. The dentist will digitally manipulate each tooth. The computer will then create a series of molds. Each one of them applies gentle force to gradually nudge the teeth into place.

The patient must wear each mold for at least two weeks. The patient should return to the dentist for the next mold. The process continues until all molds are worn and the teeth align properly. This new method is quicker than the traditional way. It takes 12-18 months to achieve results, which is significantly faster than the time it took to wear the metal counterpart.
