A lot of braces and aligners make very proud boasts about what they can do to straighten your teeth, but when it comes down to it, it’s the cost, followed by the treatment time involved, that essentially makes your mind up in the end. Of course, there are other factors to take into account as well; teeth aligning treatments take on average, around 2 years to complete, and that is a long time to be wearing a mouthful of metal. Keeping your teeth clean can be a nightmare through out the treatment, but more importantly, so can the psychological affects- especially if you are young. Maybe then, before you embark on this difficult period, you should ask your dentist in central London about Invisalign, because this treatment tears up the rule book of teeth straightening. It’s not the cheapest of options on the market, but that really becomes irrelevant when you see what it offers. Once on the course, you will be measured up for a series of different mouth-guard style aligners to correct your teeth; theses will be changed regularly as your teeth move. But when they do start moving, they move quickly, shaving two-thirds of other, more standard treatments. But for oral hygiene and discretion, this treatment stands out from the crowd. It’s firstly a clear, transparent aligner, almost invisible in the mouth, but secondly, it can be taken out for eating and cleaning purposes. Now, just sit back and take those advantages on board before you make your choice.
