Invisalign clear aligners are a cosmetically pleasing alternative orthodontic method to traditional orthodontic braces. Of proven efficiency for minor to moderate orthodontic treatments they have become very popular with teens and younger orthodontic patients. Dr Geoffrey Wexler one of Melbourne`s leading orthodontists praises Invisalign as a lovely orthodontic treatment alternative to traditional braces.

Invialign clear aligners are forcing modern orthodontics to steadily change old perceptions of what it is to wear orthodontic braces. Dr Geoffrey Wexler a professional Melbourne orthodontist has been taking advantage of the benefits of Invisalign clear aligners as an alternative to orthodontic treatments seriously for some time now producing results that show dramatic improvements in treatment times while looking great.

Unlike metal brace technology such as Damon brace and Damon clear braces, Invisalign clear aligners are near invisible when worn but are also available in many different coloured plastics, making them very popular with teens and children. Designed by orthodontists using 3D computer models of the patients mouth, tooth corrections happen gradually with a new set of Invisalign clear aligners being created each step of the way, as treatment progresses. Invisalign clear aligners can be used to cure medium or mild dental conditions and are suitable for most types of dental problems, such as teeth alignment issues, open bites, narrow smiles and teeth spacing issues that require orthodontic correction.

New Invisalign clear aligner orthodontic treatment for straightening teeth

Unlike some clear aligner systems, Invisalign do not use mouth impressions that need to be sent in the mail. Invisalign clear aligners are derived from computer generated 3D models of the patients mouth. Invisalign clear aligner orthodontic treatments are special because of the complete 3D computer modelling of the patients mouth which gives your orthodontist unprecedented control over how teeth are moved, allowing your orthodontist to plan the best smile for you.

With computers controlling the manufacture of Invisalign clear aligner your orthodontist can effect treatment in fractions of the time it took conventional metallic braces to complete treatment and Invisalign clear aligners are perfect for a wide variety of orthodontic conditions. This ensures teeth move perfectly and predictably in accordance with your orthodontists recommendations making for fewer visits and less expense.

Invisalign clear aligners allow patients to maintain their lifestyle commitments while undergoing orthodontic treatments

One of the major reasons patients take to the Invisalign clear aligner systems is the fact that they are conveniently removed by patients which makes them very practical with regard to keeping them clean.

With Invisalign clear aligners patients find that they can still do all the things they did before entering orthodontic treatment. They can eat and drink what they want as Invisalign aligners are readily removed for cleaning your teeth after you have eaten. Most patients find they can still play their favourite sporting activity, they can even play the clarinet or saxaphone without interference from the Invisalign treatment.
