If you’ve been thinking about getting braces, then you most likely have some questions about what type to choose. This is a personal decision that you must live with for about two years so it’s best to get it right so you aren’t miserable the whole time.

Invisalign is a popular choice because these retainers are barely noticeable. They are comfortable to wear and esthetically pleasing. This is a good choice for those in professional jobs whose appearance is super important.

One thing that can help the whole process go smoother is to ask your orthodontist questions about the procedure. Look online and read there about the various types of braces. The more you know, the better prepared you’ll be. Make up your mind to enjoy this process and not be stressed about it.

Invisalign Clear Aligners are probably the easiest way to get your teeth straightened and get rid of spaces. They’re made of a special type of plastic that’s lightweight and easy to wear. The orthodontist will take molds of your mouth and teeth so the Invisalign device fits correctly.

With both types of braces, you will need to see the orthodontist every six to eight weeks to ensure that your teeth are moving properly in the right direction. Not everyone is a good candidate for Invisalign. Your orthodontist will let you know once he/she has examined you, whether Invisalign would be a good choice for you.
