Straighten Teeth, Effectively and Discreetly with Invisible Teeth Aligners

When you hear the word orthodontics, you might cringe because it brings the mental picture of a child wearing metal brackets and wires to straighten your smile. However, you don’t have to advertise to the whole world that you are straightening your teeth. Invisible teeth aligners from Greg G. Pitts DDS serving residents in and around American Fork, Utah, can eliminate your uneven teeth without using unsightly metal and brackets.

What is Invisalign treatment?

Invisalign uses nearly invisible custom aligner trays instead of the traditional braces to fix your crooked teeth. The removable trays are custom-designed to guide your teeth to alignment. You wear a set every two weeks, after which you switch to a new set that brings your teeth to a new alignment.

How does Invisalign work?

Most patients find Invisalign treatment intriguing. Patients can’t understand how this state-of-the-art treatment aligns teeth without using traditional braces. Well, the treatment is simple. After Dr. Greg Pitts and his team establish that you are a candidate for Invisalign, they will build a 3-D profile of your teeth and bite impressions. It’s these images that dentists use to make custom trays that gradually move your teeth to the correct position.

Typical Invisalign treatment takes about one year to achieve the intended results, although each case is different and can take less or more time. While the aligners are removable, you must wear them for about 20 to 22 hours a day for optimal results.

Benefits of Invisalign treatment

Invisalign is the go-to procedure for fixing crooked teeth because of numerous benefits, including:

• It’s discreet — no one will know you are wearing aligners
• It’s comfortable — no irritation to your gums, unlike traditional braces
• It’s an effective yet gentle treatment to correct misalignment, teeth crowding, and bite issues
• It’s removable, enabling you to clean your teeth effectively. That also allows you to eat your favorite foods.
• Taking care of aligners isn’t painstaking
