Mouthpiece-type orthodontic devices (Invisalign) are suitable for cases where there is minimal tooth movement. The devices used are made of transparent materials, making them inconspicuous to others even when worn. Patients can easily remove them for meals and brushing, reducing the burden on daily life and minimizing any impact on pronunciation.
Treatment with mouthpiece-type orthodontic devices (Invisalign) is a type of treatment using thin, transparent plastic mouthpieces to improve tooth alignment. Unlike conventional orthodontic treatments using brackets and wires, this method offers the significant advantage of less visible appliances. For those who have hesitated to undergo treatment due to reasons such as "dislike of conspicuous appliances" or "concerns about visible devices affecting work," this device is highly recommended. Since it can be easily removed, patients can comfortably eat and brush their teeth without stress.
- Confirmation of post-treatment tooth alignment before treatment One of the features of treatment with mouthpiece-type orthodontic devices made by Align Technology is that data such as X-rays, dental impressions, and treatment plans by the dentist are sent to Align Technology, a company based in the United States that develops and sells the devices. Through a "3D simulation system," the mouthpiece is created.
In conventional orthodontic treatments using brackets and wires, it is not possible to show patients the process of tooth movement or the improved tooth alignment beforehand. Additionally, since the treatment period is based on the dentist's experience, detailed information cannot be provided to patients. However, with the 3D simulation system, patients can see how their teeth will change from before to after treatment and how much improvement will be achieved, allowing them to confirm the treatment effect beforehand. Furthermore, since the treatment period is determined, patients can understand how much their tooth alignment will improve even if they have upcoming events such as weddings or job hunting.
Made of transparent thin plastic, they are hardly visible when worn. Recommended for those who are concerned about others noticing the appliances due to their appearance.
Unlike appliances that cannot be easily removed, such as brackets and wires, they can be easily removed for regular teeth brushing, allowing for better oral hygiene. They can also be easily cleaned, making hygiene management simple.
They can be easily removed, allowing patients to eat without the restrictions of brackets and wires, avoiding entanglement or detachment of food. Patients can enjoy their favorite foods as usual.
Unlike brackets and wires, which often cause discomfort and oral ulcers by contacting the mucous membranes, this appliance does not touch the oral mucosa, allowing patients to enjoy sports and other activities without worry.
Although they can be easily removed, if they are not worn for more than 20 hours a day, the teeth may not move as planned, and the desired tooth alignment may not be achieved. Therefore, it is necessary to manage wearing time properly to achieve the intended results. Despite their removability, be mindful not to keep them off for extended periods.
Despite the advantage of being less visible even when worn, for some tooth alignments, other devices may be more suitable for achieving the desired tooth alignment. Whether treatment with mouthpiece-type orthodontic devices (Invisalign) is possible can only be determined after an actual examination, so please consult if you wish to undergo treatment with this device.
