Orthodontics
Glendale, Arizona
Today, Glendale orthodontics treatment is no longer just for teenagers. Since people take better care of their teeth today than ever before, they expect to have their natural teeth for their entire life. This leaves them more inclined to make an effort to have straight, attractive teeth.
Glendale orthodontics treatment isn’t only cosmetic, along with straightening crooked teeth Glendale orthodontics treatment also seeks to make crooked and crowded teeth easier to clean, correct malocclusions that can make chewing difficult, and when necessary, to realign the jaws in order to help prevent TMJ, bruxism and the accompanying neck and jaw pain. Today there are more choices than ever before in the type of Glendale AZ braces to be used.
Invisalign
One option to straighten teeth is Invisalign. Orthodontics treatment with Invisalign involves wearing custom fitted clear aligner trays which you will change about every two weeks. Each aligner becomes increasingly tighter in order to nudge your teeth into the proper position. The pros of using Glendale Invisalign to correct your bite are that the aligners are almost completely invisible to others and are more comfortable to wear than traditional braces with brackets and wires. The cons are that Invisalign is more expensive, can involve longer treatment time and requires dedication and responsibility. The aligners must be worn approximately 22 hours per day to be effective. They are only supposed to be removed for eating and for cleaning your teeth. In addition, these braces work best for people who don’t have serious malocclusions, since Invisalign alone may not be able to correct certain problems.
