Looking for invisible, effective, removable treatment?
First introduced about two decades ago, Invisalign is a unique alternative to traditional braces that many patients find to be both comfortable and convenient. Fravel Brewer Orthodontics is proud to be a Platinum+ Provider of this amazing treatment option.
How it works
Just like metal or ceramic braces, Invisalign moves teeth gradually over time. However, instead of using brackets and wires, it uses soft plastic trays, called aligners, that fit over the teeth.
Aligners are worn for approximately two weeks before being replaced with a new pair. Each set is shaped slightly different than the one before, which is what causes the teeth to move. After the teeth have been shifted to the right positions, retainers are worn periodically to keep them from shifting back.
Types of Invisalign in Ocoee
Invisalign isn’t just for adults with a few crooked teeth. Almost any patient can use this innovative treatment.
Invisalign Full: The most comprehensive level of aligner treatment available for adults. It can correct moderate to severe issues, including a misaligned bite.
Invisalign Teen: Just as powerful, but created specifically for teens; a great choice for teens who are self-conscious about their smile and about getting treatment.
Invisalign Lite: Uses the same technology as the full version, but corrects only minor issues in a shorter amount of time.
Invisalign Express: Often the perfect choice for someone who had treatment before but has noticed a tooth or two have shifted out of place.
Invisalign First: A relatively new option for kids between the ages of 7 and 10 who would benefit from early intervention before starting treatment as a teen or tween.
Whether you’re looking for treatment for yourself or your child, consider clear aligners from Fravel Brewer Orthodontics. You’ll be glad you did!
Benefits of clear aligner treatment
The most obvious benefit of using Invisalign is that it is virtually invisible. The aligners are clear, and any attachments needed to enhance treatment are colored to match the teeth. This is a big plus for teens and adults who are already self-conscious about their smiles.
The aligners are not only invisible, they are removable too. This eliminates all food restrictions, which teens especially appreciate. It also makes brushing and flossing easy.
