First of all, you should note the term “aligners.” Braces involve metal wires which place pressure on your teeth over time to push them into proper alignment. Aligners are not braces, which means they aren’t bonded to your teeth. That’s great news. You can easily remove and reinsert your aligners to allow you the freedom to eat the foods you enjoy. Furthermore, since aligners are made of plastic, they don’t cause nearly the discomfort that traditional braces cause. Since tooth realignment can be such a lengthy process, it’s nice to know that your comfort will be considered throughout.
No matter how old you are, one of the biggest hangups about traditional braces is their appearance. Braces are far from subtle. Since life happens quickly, there’s never really a good time to add a distracting physical feature to yourself for a potential period of years. Thanks to invisible aligners, you don’t have to let this concern deter you from getting the cosmetic treatment you want. Invisible aligners fit over your teeth, but don’t create the same stand-out effect that traditional braces do.
