How Invisalign® Can Help

By May 30, 2017 No Comments

Malocclusion is crooked teeth or a misaligned bite. If you have malocclusion, Dr. Muhammad Abey may recommend Invisalign® in Wayne, New Jersey, to help you reach a straight smile. Invisalign is a set of aligners that is designed specifically for your smile. They are worn over the teeth for 20 to 22 hours a day to gently straighten the smile. After treatment, you may notice certain positive changes in your life.

Better Oral Health
Inflamed gums can be the result of teeth that are too crowded or gapped. Unhealthy gums are a sign of gum disease. With straight teeth, the gums can fit more properly around the teeth.

Improved Oral Hygiene
Properly cleaning crooked teeth can be difficult. Missing plaque and food particles often happens when the teeth aren’t properly aligned. Properly aligned teeth are much easier to care for. In addition, cleaning your teeth is much easier with Invisalign than with braces, as Invisalign aligners are removable.

Better Overall Health
The teeth and mouth are the window to the health of your body. Some conditions in the mouth, like gum disease, are linked to conditions in the body. As a result, improved oral health leads to improved overall health. Straight teeth can also correct speech and chewing hardships, jaw issues, and eliminate unnatural wear on the tooth enamel.
