Invisalgn® Clear Aligners in Pasadena, TX
Why People Prefer Invisalign
Clear plastic aligner trays are almost invisible when worn, as they are made of smooth plastic custom fit to your teeth. Beyond invisibility and unlike traditional braces, these smile correction trays don’t pinch, poke, cut, or tug at your oral tissues. You remove your trays for teeth brushing and eating.
Eating is fairly normal with Invisalign. You can still enjoy crunchy, cold, and sticky foods like taffy, popcorn, and corn-on-the-cob. You remove your trays for eating, then put them back in for the rest of your daily routine.
Daily oral care is also the same with aligners as it is without. You remove your trays to brush and floss, then put them back in for smile correction. This means your teeth and gums stay healthy throughout your teeth straightening. It also means your smile is its pearly white best when you have completed your aligner tray course of treatment.
