What if you could straighten your teeth out without bulky metal braces? Now there’s an alternative cosmetic dental option available: Invisalign. 

Invisalign is an orthodontic treatment that can fix dental issues like overbite, teeth gaps, and overcrowding.

At Sun-Park Dental in Rocklin, CA, our experienced professionals provide completely customized Invisalign treatment plans that can improve your smile in a shorter time than metal braces. Here are some facts you should know about Invisalign before you opt for the treatment.

• You Don’t Have To Follow Specific Diets with Invisalign

One of the main benefits of Invisalign is that you can eat whatever you like during the treatment as you can remove the aligners before you eat and not worry about food getting stuck anywhere. 

• Invisalign Is a Less Painful Option Than Metal Braces

The treatment with Invisalign is more comfortable and less painful than the treatment with metal braces. The only slight discomfort you may feel is in the first few days until you get accustomed to wearing the aligners. 

• Invisalign Doesn’t Disrupt Your Life at All

Unlike metal braces, Invisalign aligners are custom-made to fit perfectly on your teeth and feel comfortable. They are also transparent, so they are barely noticeable. 

During the treatment, you won’t need to change your diet or stop any activities as they are conveniently removable when required. The only tasks you need to add to your schedule are visiting our dentist regularly and brushing your teeth before putting back your aligners.

• Invisalign Treatment Time Is Shorter

Invisalign treatment is versatile and customizable, so the type of treatment you receive will fit your needs and wants. The duration of the treatment with Invisalign mainly depends on the severity of your alignment issues. It can be anywhere between 6 and 18 months. 

• There Are Several Types of Invisalign Treatments

There are mainly four types of Invisalign treatments - Lite, Express, Full, and Teen. 

Invisalign Express only lasts for six months and is best for minor dental issues. For fixing moderate dental issues and for patients with crowns, Invisalign Lite is more appropriate. Invisalign Teen is perfect for teenagers and young adults with shifting teeth. Invisalign Full is used for treating the most challenging orthodontic cases.

Invisalign is a discreet and easy way to get the smile you deserve. If you want to get started with your Invisalign treatment or need more information, consult with our experts at Sun-Park Dental by calling (916) 435-1155 or visiting us at 5400 Park Drive, Rocklin, CA 95765.
