Avoid a referral to an orthodontist by working with a dentist providing Invisalign
Visiting an orthodontist is the first thing that comes to mind for patients who want to straighten their teeth. However, there is not often a need for a specialized professional or referral to an orthodontist to obtain orthodontic treatment. This is because many dentists now offer orthodontic services such as Invisalign, which can be done with the attention of a dental team. Dr. Brianne Luu and her team at Gentle Care Dentistry are pleased to offer Invisalign orthodontics for patients in and around the community of Azusa, California.
What is Invisalign?
Many patients learn about Invisalign as an alternative to traditional braces. They may desire to straighten their teeth but are put off by the idea of covering their smile with unsightly metal brackets and wires. With Invisalign, patients can eliminate this worry and instead achieve their dream smile with clear, discreet aligners. The aligners gently push the teeth into proper alignment and are beneficial for patients with mild to moderate misalignment of the upper, lower, or both dental arches.
How does Invisalign work?
The process of Invisalign utilizes a series of customized trays. These trays are designed using 3D imaging of the patient’s current smile and software that converts these images into the patient’s dream smile. A series of trays are made, and patients wear each tray for two weeks as they progress through their treatment. With the help of a dentist, patients can achieve better alignment and proper bite with Invisalign orthodontics.
What are the benefits of Invisalign?
Invisalign allows patients to brush and floss their teeth without having to work around metal appliances, ensuring better oral health throughout the process. Invisalign trays are clear and discreet, allowing patients to feel confident from start to finish. This treatment is also comparable in cost with traditional braces and eliminates the need for a referral to an orthodontist for further care.
