At Dupage Dental Smiles, we aim to give you a beautiful smile you will be proud to show off, without the need for obtrusive and unattractive metal braces. With the modern technology of Invisalign®, Dr. Sumeet Bagai can correct your overbite, underbite, crossbite, gap teeth or crooked teeth without others knowing. The Invisalign system involves wearing a series of ultra-thin plastic aligners that are virtually invisible when worn over your teeth.
How is Invisalign® Different Than Braces?
Instead of wires and brackets, Dr. Bagai will take a mold of your teeth to create a series of clear aligners that gently straighten your teeth over time. Invisalign® is an excellent dental service in Warrenville for adults who are embarrassed about wearing braces, or for those who want to maintain a professional appearance while correcting their teeth.
Unlike braces, this dental service in Warrenville is made of smooth plastic that will not cause abrasions when rubbing against your cheeks or gums. There may be mild discomfort as your teeth shift, but generally, patients find aligners more comfortable than metal braces.
Lastly, the aligners can be removed, which allows for natural eating, brushing, and flossing. Invisalign® allows for much easier dental hygiene than is possible with traditional metal braces, and there are no restrictions on what foods you can eat!
Living With Invisalign®
For best results, Invisalign® should be worn for a minimum of 20 to 22 hours per day, including while you sleep. By removing your aligners first, you can continue to eat your favorite foods and brush and floss like normal. In order to keep this dental service in Warrenville clean, remember to brush after each meal, before placing the aligners back in your mouth. This will help avoid stains and is especially important after eating or drinking sticky substances. Easily clean your aligners by rinsing them in lukewarm water and scrubbing them with a soft-bristled toothbrush and toothpaste. For a deeper clean, you can purchase the Invisalign® Cleaning System or soak the aligners in a denture cleaning solution.
