You may be surprised to know that the benefits of having properly aligned teeth extend far beyond a confident smile. It is well known that healthier gums and straighter teeth can significantly affect your overall dental health. If we all think about it — a smile can hardly be perfect if it’s not a healthy one. Healthier, brighter teeth will ensure your gum health can be maintained better.

Swollen, red gums can often be the result of having teeth that are crowded or too widely spaced. Unfortunately, these are also signs of periodontal disease. When teeth are properly aligned, it helps the gums fit more securely around the teeth, allowing for the strongest and healthiest defence against potential periodontal problems. That’s where Invisalign comes in. The comfortable and clear aligners gently and gradually begin to move your teeth into the proper position — without unsightly brackets and wires.

EASIER CLEANING

With Invisalign, the aligners are removable, so it’s easy to continue brushing and flossing your teeth is so much easier. You do all the things the way you normally do. Using Invisalign, there is no more food getting caught and you actually help to protect yourself from bad breath through plaque build up which could ultimately lead to gum disease.

OVERALL HEALTH

Think of your teeth as a window to the health of your body. Your teeth and gums and how they look to others when you smile say a lot about your overall health. If you’re taking good care of both, you’re probably taking good care of the rest of you.

Invisalign aligners make daily oral hygiene easier, thus reducing the risk of possible problems. And correctly aligned teeth can also alleviate the issues that can be caused by an improper bite, speech or chewing difficulties, jaw problems, and increased wear on the tooth enamel.

Invisalign effectively addresses all of these orthodontic issues, so you’ll have the confidence of a great smile and increase the likelihood of improved oral health.
