Get An Incredible Smile with Invisalign Clear Aligners
Having misaligned teeth can be a very traumatic experience. Depending on the misalignment’s severity, it can dramatically impact your quality of life. For example, it’s very common for people with misaligned teeth to refrain from showing their teeth while smiling. Denying yourself of this natural human expression can significantly impact a person’s self-esteem and mental health.
This is why millions of people search the internet daily for terms such as “orthodontist near me” to find ways to correct their misaligned smiles. At Msmiline Cosmetic Dentistry, our dentists are skilled in correcting misalignments using Invisalign, one of the most trusted names in the clear aligner industry.
Understanding Malocclusion
Malocclusion is the clinical term for misaligned or crooked teeth. Crooked teeth are more than just a matter of aesthetics. They can also lead to other issues, such as:
- Changes in the shape of your jaw due to teeth moving around
- Alterations in the shape of your face and overall appearance
- The creation of a lisp or other changes to your speech pattern
- Uncomfortable chewing and biting during a meal
- Biting your inner cheeks or teeth
- Unhealthy breathing behaviours such as mouth breathing
How Does Invisalign Work?
Invisalign is one of the most recognized names in clear aligners, also called clear braces. Unlike traditional metal braces, clear aligners are not permanently attached to your teeth 24/7 while you wear them. Instead, they are removable anytime, and the bio-compatible plastic is clear, allowing you to wear them discretely. The same cannot be said for traditional metal braces with their metal brackets and wires.
The Invisalign system can correct most forms of teeth misalignment. In many ways, Invisalign uses the same principles as traditional braces, as they both gradually shift your teeth using pressure until they achieve the desired position.
Invisalign’s Clear Benefits
There are a lot of amazing benefits to using Invisalign compared to traditional braces, such as:
- Invisalign aligners are nearly invisible.
- You can remove them any time to eat and drink or brush and floss.
- Patients have higher compliance using clear aligner systems than traditional braces, meaning they often achieve faster and better results.
- Invisalign aligners don’t irritate your inner mouth and gums.

What Happens During the Invisalign Process?
During your first visit, your dentist may take a 3D virtual model of your dental arch using specialized technology. You’ll be able to preview how your teeth will look step by step before you get started, using special predictive software.
Your scans are sent to a lab where they design a customized set of clear aligners based on the virtual model.
You’ll begin wearing your aligners for roughly 20-22 hours daily to achieve the best results, taking them off only to eat and drink or to brush and floss. After about two weeks, you’ll switch to your new set of aligners. After completing each set, your teeth should achieve the alignment you desire.
