Drs. Lan Vo and Sean Breckley in Marietta, GA are two dentists of 32 Dental who want to offer their patients a wide range of restorative solutions. When problems such as misaligned teeth become a concern for patients who are unhappy with the appearance of their smiles, they want to be able to provide effective services. For many patients, clear braces may be the solution most appropriate.

Invisalign, which is often known as “clear braces,” is a popular option for both teenagers and adults who want to improve the alignment of their smiles. Drs. Lan Vo and Sean Breckley may suggest them as an alternative to conventional braces because of their many benefits. Invisalign is different from traditional orthodontia as it uses aligner trays that snap over the dental arch instead of metal brackets and wires. Traditional braces make it hard for patients to maintain their oral health with brushing and flossing. They can be incredibly uncomfortable, can scratch the tissues inside the mouth, and require patients to visit a specialist whom they do not know. Instead, patients can work with their current dentist to undergo orthodontic treatment with Invisalign, making it a much more desirable option for patients uneasy about being referred to a dental specialist they are not familiar with.

Drs. Lan Vo and Sean Breckley must first determine if patients are proper candidates for Invisalign clear braces. Individuals with mild to moderate misalignment of their dental arch may be able to use this orthodontic method, as it can improve both the dental arch and the bite. Invisalign also requires patients to be compliant with treatment and wear their aligner trays day and night. If patients do not follow their treatment, they may be unable to achieve their desired results within the specific period, which may slow down their overall treatment plan and even require the fabrication of extra aligner trays to get teeth where they need to be.
