Gym class, pop quizzes, lunchtime — you don\u2019t miss it, do you? Thankfully, once we leave those halls, the list of \u201cembarrassing\u201d things we have to endure gets a lot shorter. For one thing, you don\u2019t need to worry about bulky, noticeable metal braces. That\u2019s because metal braces for adults are\u2026 well, they\u2019re just not a thing anymore.\r\n\r\nToday, more adults are getting braces than ever before — but that doesn\u2019t mean brackets and wires, of course. There are several excellent options for straightening adult teeth, and you\u2019ve probably heard of the most common. It\u2019s Invisalign: clear, removable braces that straighten your teeth faster and less noticeably than ever before. We\u2019ve been using Invisalign for years to give adults who missed the boat on metal braces in high school the straight, beautiful teeth they deserve. In fact, Dr. Latner<\/a> was one of the first general dentists to offer Invisalign — so you can trust that he knows what he\u2019s doing.\r\n

Advantages of Invisalign<\/h3>\r\nTime and time again, adults have found that Invisalign is a comfortable, fast way to straighten their teeth <\/strong>— without having to endure the embarrassment of traditional braces. Because Invisalign doesn\u2019t use wires and brackets, there\u2019s no worry about pain or irritation on your cheeks and gums. It\u2019s also faster than traditional braces — and because it uses clear trays, no one even has to know you\u2019re undergoing orthodontic treatment.\r\n\r\nAnother big advantage of Invisalign is that the clear braces are removable — meaning you don\u2019t have to worry about any special maintenance procedures. As long as you\u2019re sure to wear the aligners from 20 to 22 hours each day, you can inconspicuously slip them out before meals and for cleaning, ensuring that you can eat, brush and floss just like normal.\r\n

How Invisalign Works<\/h3>\r\nThe FDA-approved Invisalign system uses a series of clear, removable aligners that are fitted to your unique mouth. They gently move your teeth into the desired position — invisibly.\r\n\r\nTo fit you with your unique aligners, Dr. Latner will take x-rays, photos and impressions of your teeth, which allows him to create a treatment plan especially for you and your mouth. Once you get your aligners, you\u2019ll wear a new set approximately every two weeks to advance you onto the next stage of treatment. You\u2019ll have a checkup with your doctor approximately every six weeks — and the total treatment time is approximately one year in adults.\r\n

Invisalign — Right for You?<\/h3>\r\nIf you\u2019ve got gapped or overcrowded teeth, or if you\u2019re dealing with the effects of a bad bite — like an overbite, underbite or crossbite — chances are you\u2019re an excellent candidate for Invisalign. The only way to know for sure is to make an appointment with Dr. Latner today<\/a>! If you decide this option is right for you, you and the dentist can begin discussing your treatment plan immediately.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"High school can be brutal.
