With the advent of the Invisalign® orthodontic aligner system, the bar has been raised for our oral health care. However, how much do you truly know about Invisalign. The truth is, many of their perks get lost in the mix and confused with other services. The following questions can help guide you to a better understanding of what Invisalign is and what it can do for you:
TRUE or FALSE: Invisalign aligners are invisible.
– This is partially true because Invisalign aligners are somewhat invisible. If they were wholly invisible, it would VERY difficult to find them every time you had to put them in!
TRUE or FALSE: You cannot eat whatever you want with Invisalign.
– False, you do not have to change your diet, and can unlock your aligners before every meal.
TRUE or FALSE: One pair of Invisalign fits all.
– This is false. Each pair of Invisalign aligners is designed and created for each patient’s specific dental profile to ensure the best possible treatment. Also, never share mouth utensils, including toothbrushes, as this can easily cause contamination.
TRUE or FALSE: Invisalign orthodontic aligners can be removed and reattached as necessary.
– This is true. If you need to remove your aligners for meals or for cleaning, they can easily be removed when necessary.
