Invisible bracketless orthodontics is a new technology that has emerged internationally in recent years, just like the “dress set” of orthodontics, patients only need to wear it on time, regular replacement to achieve the goal of a new orthodontic technology, with the advantages of aesthetics, comfort, hygiene, easy to take off and predict the effect of orthodontics, is the true sense of eco-aesthetics Invisalign technology is a true eco-aesthetic orthodontic technique. Invisible orthodontic technology is not only a transparent brace, but also the product of five major technological developments. It includes: computer science: to achieve digital orthodontics; biomechanics: to achieve the effectiveness and accuracy of tooth movement; clinical dentistry: the pursuit of excellence and continuous expansion of the indications; materials science: high tensile modulus of medical polymer materials; 3D printing technology: a new breakthrough in the field of modern manufacturing technology in the oral cavity. Invisalign: transparent orthodontic treatment Invisalign uses a set of transparent custom braces that can be removed for brushing and flossing during the orthodontic process. The braces are clear and have less impact on appearance and less discomfort when worn. This is especially true for busy adults. In some cases, it is possible to go temporarily without braces, as if there were no orthodontic treatment. Advantages: Braces are basically invisible and can be removed Invisalign requires braces to be worn all the time and only temporarily removed for eating and cleaning (brushing, flossing). Approximately every two weeks, new braces are needed to allow the teeth to continue with the next step of orthodontic treatment. In this case, the patient basically controls the orthodontic process, as they can decide to wear them or not. This is both an advantage and a limitation, relying on the compliance of the orthodontist. If the aligners are used correctly at all times, the desired results are achieved in most cases. The ability to remove the aligners for oral cleaning and eating is a huge advantage. However, it is important to note that braces can only be corrected if they are worn, and if they are always left on, orthodontics cannot be completed with traditional braces fixed to the teeth, precluding this uncertainty. Limitations: You may not wear them or you may forget to wear them, because they can be easily taken off. When is Invisalign not applicable? Less likely to cause tooth soreness and discomfort, most people can use Invisalign. Traditional orthodontics may cause greater tooth soreness, discomfort, or other damage from braces, failure to clean better resulting in tooth decay, tooth discoloration, broken arches or teeth, difficulty eating, etc. Although Invisalign has these obvious benefits, traditional orthodontics is still applicable for teeth that cannot be corrected by invisible braces, like misaligned teeth. Traditional orthodontics allows the doctor to control the speed and accuracy more precisely. Another drawback is that invisible braces may take a little longer. In individual cases, Invisalign may not achieve the desired results and will require a second phase of fine tuning to make the results better. Advantages: Invisalign is less painful for most people. Limitations: Some complex cases may not be suitable, the dentist does not have as much control over the process as with traditional braces, it may take longer, and secondary braces may be required. Complementing each other, Invisalign and Traditional Orthodontics Even if Invisalign does not work initially, later correction and retention can often be achieved with invisible braces. Everyone who consults Invisalign, many often find that they may be better suited for this type of composite braces. Many dentists also recommend invisible braces as a follow-up treatment to protect the teeth and improve results.
