Invisalign An Overview
With Invisalign® clear braces you can straighten your teeth without anyone else having to know. Invisalign uses state of the art digital technology to create custom clear aligners that comfortably and discreetly realign teeth. Dr. Datta Malyavantham is a Reston, VA Invisalign provider, offering Invisalign for teen and adult patients. Adults can avoid the stigma of having metal braces while teens can avoid the embarrassment.
Invisalign is an effective and discreet option for addressing mild to moderate orthodontic concerns. It is a great way to address orthodontic relapse that commonly occurs years after a patient has completed previous orthodontic treatment. They are custom designed for each patient to sit snug against the teeth making them as unnoticeable as possible. These invisible braces are made from a smooth, soft plastic material that will not irritate your gums how metal braces do. Dr. Datta may recommend using Invisalign to treat a range of dental health and cosmetic related concerns impacting your smile.
Invisalign can be used to address:
- TMJ disorders
- Crooked teeth
- Gaps in teeth
- Underbite
- Overbite
- Cross bite
- Orthodontic Relapse
Invisalign can change the appearance of your smile and improve your oral health. Invisalign is the preferred method of realigning crooked teeth for patients who do not wish to endure the inconvenience or discomfort of traditional metal braces.
