Thousands of adults are exploring orthodontic options every year. If you are one of them, we can help. Gentle Care Dentistry, serving patients in and near Azusa, believes everyone should have straight teeth and a proper bite.  That’s why we offer Invisalign braces.

Why Invisalign is ideal for many adult patients:

Many adults didn’t have orthodontic issues fixed as kids for multiple reasons. Invisalign gives them the opportunity for teeth alignment with minimal disruption to their busy lives. Invisalign uses clear comfortable plastic trays custom-made for your specific issues. Because of their clear appearance, many won’t even realize you are in the process of having your smile straightened! Patients wear each tray for two weeks and then change it out for the next one in the series. The amount of time spent in the dentist’s office is minimal. Invisalign trays are worn for at least 20 hours daily, but they can be removed for eating and oral hygiene care. This allows patients to keep eating the same foods as before beginning orthodontic treatment.

Ideal Invisalign candidates:

• Adults or older teens. This is because it is easy for children to remove and misplace the Invisalign aligners.
• Minor to moderate alignment issues, including but not limited to overbite, underbite, crowding, gaps, crossbite, and shifted or twisted teeth.

Benefits to Invisalign:

• Healthier teeth. Because the trays are removed for brushing and flossing, it ensures that nothing becomes stuck under a bracket, wire, or between teeth. This leads to a smile that is both straight and healthy at the end of treatment.
• Fast: Invisalign can align your teeth in as little as 12 months if you adhere to wearing your alignment trays on a consistent basis.

We want all our patients to be proud of their smile. Call us at +1 626-466-9596 today.
