Invisalign For Adult Patients

Invisalign continues to be a reliable option for patients with teeth misalignment to achieve a more attractive smile. Many think that traditional bracket-and-wire braces are unsightly and problematic. Fortunately, there have been several advances in dentistry today, and patients no longer have to see an orthodontist or cover their teeth with metal. Thanks to Invisalign, teenagers, and adults have another solution to choose from.

Invisalign is sometimes referred to as “invisible braces” because it utilizes clear acrylic trays over the dental arch to gently reposition the teeth. Manhattan Beach, California area patients considering this treatment might have questions for Dr. Don Mungcal and his team at Manhattan Beach Dental Solutions, allowing him to determine if patients can benefit from this solution or alternative options.

Can Invisalign be used for adult patients?

Some of the most common questions we hear about Invisalign from potential patients are those about the age range that it is most appropriate for. Because Invisalign is best for those with mild to moderate misalignment and requires patients to be prudent about wearing their trays as directed, we often recommend both teenagers and adults for invisible braces. Children may not be wearing their trays as they should, which can complicate, delay, and even add costs to treatment.

Many adults love that Invisalign is practically indistinguishable from the natural smile and that wearing them still gives them confidence as they are improving the alignment of their teeth in the dental arch discreetly. Invisalign gives patients the opportunity to avoid metal appliances over their teeth as they would with traditional braces through a local orthodontist.
