Successful teeth alignments for patients in the Brampton area

Why Invisalign treatment is so successful
Conventional braces move teeth with pressure placed on the crown (the part of the tooth you see above the gum line). Metal bands or brackets are cemented to teeth and force is applied by tightening connecting wires. Because this is a forced-compliance method – you can’t remove braces – it moves teeth effectively. But traditional orthodontics can have harsh side effects on the health of tooth roots and the appearance of enamel, and contribute to tooth decay and gum disease.
Dr. Rina believes in treating patients with a woman’s tender touch. Invisalign fits that philosophy perfectly.
She takes measurements and impressions of your mouth. A robust computer program turns that information into a series of transparent aligners. The aligners fit snugly over your teeth. As you change to the next set of aligners in the series, about every two weeks, their shape gently nudges teeth into proper alignment with low force – typically in about 18 months.
The Invisalign method is successful because of the precise technology behind it and because patients don’t hate treatment.
Why patients love Invisalign
There are plenty of reasons to love Invisalign:
- Clearly more attractive. The aligners aren’t noticeable. Others probably won’t even realize you are straightening, and you’ll adapt quickly to speaking with the aligners in place.
- Removable. Because you may remove the aligners, you eat the foods you love and keep your smile sparkling clean.
- Comfortable. Aligners are made of thin plastic that fits comfortably. There are no dreaded wire tightening appointments or sore spots from hardware poking your soft tissues.
There’s no forced-compliance with Invisalign. Dr.
