Q: Invisalign vs. braces - what's the difference?
A:
Invisalign is a different mode of braces. Wire braces are unsightly and uncomfortable. They also take longer to get a desired effect. You remember when you had braces as a teenager the years it took and the many dental visits to the family orthodontist.
Invisalign offers similar results with less invasive, clear "aligners." The aligners are used to make incremental movements in your teeth to the desired end result. Just like traditional braces, you will still have to wear a retainer after your Invisalign treatment. But the ability to take your aligners out when you are on a date is a luxury you cannot put a price on!
