What Are the Pros and Cons of Invisalign Braces?

Invisalign is nearly undetectable, so people don't have to know that your are going through orthodontic treatment, and you can remove them for social events. You have to remove the trays for eating and before replacing them you have to brush and floss. I have found that most of my patients oral hygiene has improved and they have found that they have lost weight because they snack less.
If you don't wear your aligners for the recommended hours per day you can affect the ability to finish on time and get your desired results, so compliance is necessary. Braces are fixed to your teeth and can only be removed by the doctor, so compliance is less of an issue. With both methods you will experience tenderness of teeth and gums. But Invisalign, unlike braces, will not scratch or tear the inside of your cheek or lips. Good luck!

In summary, wearing Invisalign is like wearing removable braces that the patient decides then to remove and "reattach". Having the ability to "detach" your braces when you want is a great advantage. Conversely, this ability may result in inadequate correction of the teeth should the patient choose to wear the aligners fewer hours than recommended. Try to imagine all the advantages you would have in wearing removable braces such as eating what you want, smiling for pictures, and playing musical instruments. Imagine never having a poking wire or never having to get in "trouble" for breaking your braces.   

Invisalign is a great way to straighten teeth. Ofcourse, it has its pros and cons. The biggest pro is that it is completely invisible, so nobody can tell whether you're wearing braces or not. It is extremely comfortable, apart from the first week when you're actually getting used to them. Infact, we have patients at our practice switching from regular fixed braces to Invisalign because of the comfort factor. Lastly, they're removable so you can pretty much eat whatever you like after taking them out. 
Ofcourse, the con is that it is more expensive than fixed braces but a lot of our patients feel its worth it.

Invisalign is significantly less noticeable
than traditional braces. Due to the removable nature of Invisalign, patients
also experience greater convenience, especially when eating and cleaning their
teeth. However, they do rely on patient compliance and only work when they are
worn.

Invisalign and Braces are orthodontic treatments which help with teeth straightening. Most patients do prefer Invisalign. Both method of treatments would ultimately get you the same result however the process is different, most patients prefer Invisalign because there is no metal involved and its practically invisible therefor helping in the patient not feeling self conscious about their smile while they undergo treatment.  

So what are the pros and cons of invisalign Braces.  First thing that I always have to make sure that I talk to my patients
about is compliance. If you can honestly
say to yourself that you will be the type of patient that wear the aligners
cause they are removable these are clear wonderful aligners cause you can’t see
them so that’s a pro. But the con is
that they are removable if your not the type of patient who will be compliant
with that then invisalign may not be for you and traditional braces that are
fixed on your teeth maybe the better option. As far as expense truthfully the expenses either pretty close to the
same as regular orthodontic treatment with braces and sometimes even less. As far as time that also depends on the
patient’s compliance. Yet usual timing
depending on the complexity of the case is usually about 12-18 months.
