Have you heard the saying that your eyes are the window to the soul? Perhaps your smile is the front door!

If you missed your chance to have have braces as a teenager, you might think you have to live with wonky misaligned teeth, or suffer with a mouth full metal brackets and wires. With modern orthodontic options such as Invisalign clear aligners, you can have the straight teeth you always wanted without the pain or embarrassment of traditional braces.
Invisalign and Your Lifestyle
Most adults don’t look forward to the idea of traditional bracket and wire braces and the frequent (sometimes painful) trips to the dentist office. With Invisalign, the process and experience is totally different. After your initial smile assessment, you’ll receive a set of clear plastic aligners – one for your top teeth and another for the lower teeth. Each tray is worn for a couple of weeks, which moves your teeth ever so slightly, then you’ll swap it out for a new tray. With each new tray, your teeth are gently nudges into the desired position.

In our Perth dental clinic, Invisalign is a popular orthodontic treatment choice for many of our adult and teenager patients. Invisalign is a popular and proven choice for tooth straightening due to their nearly invisible appearance, however, the benefits go far beyond the aesthetics. In this article, we shed light on additional benefits of Invisalign.
Invisalign Doesn’t Stain Your Teeth
When traditional braces are placed on the surface of your teeth, discolouration or staining can occur around the site of the brackets and wires, especially if the braces remain glued to your teeth for extended periods of time. Basic oral hygiene like brushing and flossing is difficult due to the wires and brackets getting in the way, which could make your teeth more prone to staining from food and drink. Read More...
