Fun facts about Invisalign from Spa Dental
In the last 10 years or so, there has been a surge in the number of adult dental patients wanting to get straighter teeth. This may be because they missed the opportunity as a child or the misalignment simply occured later in life.
The majority of adult patients have been seeking treatment that is visually discreet, so it will not impact their work life. This is where invisible aligners come into play and have changed the face of orthodontic care.
At Spa Dental, we can offer all kinds of orthodontic treatments to adult patients including the world-famous Invisalign in Sydney. This clear aligner is custom fitted to your teeth and can be taken out as and when it needs to be. It also offers a shorter treatment time which is perfect for people who have busy lifestyles.
But what are some of the fun facts about Invisalign in Sydney that you may not be aware of? In this article, we look at 5 of them, so you can learn more about this nifty and efficient aligner.
Most people are suitable for it
While most people assume that they will not be suitable for Invisalign in Sydney in our experience, 95% of the adult patients who come to us are indeed suitable for it. This is because most people have what is considered a mild to moderate case of dental misalignment which can easily be treated with an invisible aligner. So, if you have concerns that your misalignment may be too severe for the aligner to handle, you need to contact our team for an assessment.
The aligners are 3D printed
In the last few years, 3D printing has really taken off and every aligner that you receive will be 3D printed. The specifics and the shapes that are required for the aligner are entered into the printer, which uses clear plastic to print them. This does mean that when you first put the aligner in it may feel a bit sharp, but dental wax or simply sanding down the sharp edges can resolve this issue.
Many celebrities have used it
It would be impossible to list all of the celebrities who have used invisible aligners, but rest assured that when you start this treatment, you are in good company. The list does include people such as Justin Bieber, Katy Perry and even Britney Spears – all of their teeth look great and so could yours!
The inventor had metal braces!
It’s worth noting as well that the person who invented invisible aligners wore metal braces and found that the entire process was exhausting and a little uncomfortable. So, they set out to design an aligner that was removable and used vector points to move the teeth, rather than adjustments or tightening sessions.
Aligners are more affordable than most people think
Many people assume that invisible aligners are excessively expensive, and this is not the case. Our team will be able to offer more information about how much this treatment will cost. We can also offer you financing options if you are suitable, so you can break down the cost of this treatment into affordable monthly instalments.
