Invisalign uses a series of custom-made clear aligners to gently guide your teeth into their desired positions over time.
Each aligner is designed to make small adjustments to your smile and is replaced with the next aligner in the series as your treatment progresses. This step-by-step approach helps create a more comfortable and predictable orthodontic experience.
Virtually Invisible
Invisalign clear aligners are made from a transparent material that makes them subtle when worn. This makes them a popular option for patients looking for a more discreet way to straighten their teeth.
Many patients appreciate that Invisalign aligners blend naturally with their smile, allowing them to feel confident throughout their orthodontic treatment.
Convenient & Removable
One of the benefits of Invisalign is that the aligners can be removed when needed. This allows you to continue brushing and flossing your teeth as usual, helping you maintain your oral hygiene routine throughout treatment.
Because the aligners are removable, you can also continue enjoying your favourite foods without the same restrictions often associated with traditional braces. You can also remove them for special occasions, photos, or important moments.
Comfortable
Like any orthodontic treatment, Invisalign may involve some temporary pressure or mild discomfort as your teeth begin to move. This is a normal part of the process and a sign that your aligners are working as planned.
Many patients find that the smooth design of Invisalign aligners provides a comfortable fit and helps reduce irritation to the cheeks and gums compared to traditional orthodontic appliances.
Invisalign & Braces Treatment in Vancouver
At Ocean Orthodontics, we provide both Damon and ceramic braces as well as Invisalign clear aligners for patients of all ages, including children, teens, and adults. During your consultation, our orthodontist will evaluate your smile and help you determine which treatment option best fits your needs, goals, and lifestyle.
Benefits of Braces
Traditional braces use brackets, elastic bands, and wires to gently move teeth into alignment over time. At our clinic, we offer Damon and ceramic braces, which are more discreet and lower-profile options.
Today’s braces are more comfortable, streamlined, and discreet than the bulky metal braces you may remember from the past. With advancements in orthodontic technology, both Damon and ceramic braces provide effective ways to improve tooth alignment and create healthier smiles.
Versatility
Braces are a versatile treatment option that can address a wide range of orthodontic concerns. Their ability to apply consistent pressure makes them effective for guiding teeth into proper alignment and improving bite issues.
For more complex corrections, such as adjusting tooth rotations, improving tooth positioning, or aligning roots, braces can provide the control needed to achieve predictable results. Both Damon and ceramic braces offer reliable treatment options tailored to each patient’s needs.
Efficiency
Braces provide continuous pressure to gradually move teeth into their desired positions. This makes them an effective option for treating a variety of alignment concerns, including more complex cases.
Modern braces, including Damon self-ligating braces, are designed with patient comfort in mind and offer a more streamlined experience than traditional braces of the past.
Ease of Compliance
Unlike removable aligners, braces stay in place throughout your treatment, so there is no need to remember to wear them for a certain number of hours each day. This can make braces a great option for patients who prefer a treatment approach that requires less daily management.
Your orthodontist will help determine whether Damon braces, ceramic braces, or another treatment option is the right fit based on your smile goals and lifestyle.
