Look good while you straighten with Invisalign treatment in Pembroke Pines, FL

 Have you dreamed of having straighter teeth for a more appealing smile? Maybe, though, you are not excited about wearing orthodontic hardware for a few years. If you are in Cooper City, Miramar, or Hollywood and looking for Invisalign near me, you have come to the right place. Dr. Carlos Llapur and his team at Pines Dental Associates in Pembroke Pines, FL love helping teen and adult patients get straight, attractive smiles with the Invisalign clear aligners system.

About invisible aligners

 Teeth straightening has traditionally been accomplished with brackets, bands, and wires. While that method is still sometimes the best course of treatment, many patients achieve great results without hardware. Invisalign moves teeth with a progressive series of removable Aligners, designed using a computer software from digital impressions of your mouth and fabricated using contemporary 3D printing technology.

When Invisalign was initially approved by the FDA in 1998, it was primarily considered a solution for cosmetic straightening. However, the technology has continued to advance. Today, patients benefit from Invisalign bite correction, and even cases of significantly crooked and crowded teeth can be candidates for treatment.

Why Pembroke Pines, FL patients love Invisalign

  •  Crystal clear Aligners are barely visible. Most people do not realize you are having orthodontic treatment unless they look closely.
  • It usually takes just a few days to adapt to living with aligners. You will quickly master speaking clearly and drinking water with aligners inserted.
  • Aligners are removable, so you continue to eat the foods you love during treatment.
  • It is easy to keep your teeth sparkling clean and the Aligners fresh with regular daily oral hygiene.
  • There is no hardware to rub, poke, or irritate delicate oral tissues. Plus, there are no wire tightening appointments.
  • Return checkups to monitor progress are brief and painless.
  • With good compliance (wearing aligners at least 20 hours each day), treatment is efficient. While every patient is different, straightening can often be completed within a year.
  • Treatment outcome is very predictable as the software we use for designing the case and generating the animation showing the results is more accurate than humans.

Others wouldn’t even know you are wearing Invisalign aligners as they are clear and almost invisible. They are comfortable, fit well, and won’t irritate your mouth as there are no metal brackets or wires. You can remove them to eat and drink, brush and floss, and for special events.

It is an excellent solution for teens and adults who want a straighter smile without letting everyone know they are wearing braces. Almost all common teeth-straightening and bite issues, whether simple or complex, can be corrected in a shorter time with Invisalign.

No, Invisalign aligners are removable, so you can take them off and eat anything you like including hard foods. But you must remember to clean your teeth and gums properly after eating and before putting your aligners back on.
