5 Ways to Know You’re a Good Candidate for Haymarket Invisalign

Plenty of adults, and even some teens, are seeking a discreet way to get a straight smile. Haymarket Invisalign braces provide just that kind of service. Invisalign is an appropriate orthodontic method for so many people who have crooked teeth, overbites, underbites, and other problems with their jaw and alignment.

Your dentist will let you know for certain if you’re a good candidate for these innovative, nearly invisible braces, but you also need to evaluate your own habits and lifestyle to determine if Invisalign will truly work for you.

You want braces that don’t interfere with your life.

Presentations at work. Meetings with clients. A speech at school. A wedding. A photo shoot. A first date. Whether a major event or intimate moment, braces should never interfere. Whatever is coming up in your future, professionally or socially or personally, Invisalign won’t get in the way. In fact, you can remove Invisalign temporarily when needed (even though no one will notice your braces anyway).

You want to look like yourself.

Dread the idea of being known as a metal mouth? Want to smile without feeling self-conscious about your braces? Invisalign is the invisible accessory that goes with your entire wardrobe. You will stand out for who you are and feel proud of your appearance when you don’t feel like your braces are hijacking your identity.

You want to eat what you want.

Anyone who knows anything about braces knows there are food restrictions. Conventional metal braces do not take kindly to things like pizza crust, popcorn, gum, crunchy veggies, or any chewy and sticky foods. You can’t eat these things while Invisalign is in your mouth either because you’ll break and stain the aligners, but you can remove Invisalign to eat absolutely anything you want, anytime.

As long as you clean your teeth properly after eating so no food particles get stuck in between your aligners and your teeth, you will love your braces and the freedom to happily eat what you love.

You’re good at routine.

Invisalign is a commitment. If you thrive with a schedule, specific instructions, and a list of dos and don’ts, then Invisalign could be right for you. The most successful Haymarket Invisalign wearers are prepared to follow the rules that come with a course of Invisalign treatment.

You must wear the invisible aligners 20 to 22 hours a day. Aligners are changed about every two weeks. The aligners must be cleaned regularly and properly. You can’t eat or drink with the aligners in your mouth. For some candidates, wear indicators on the aligners are put in place so your dentist can tell if the routine is being followed.

If you’re a rule-breaker, another cosmetic dentistry option for improving your smile might be the better choice. If you want to be the best and show that you can do so by following the rules to the letter, Invisalign could be your big win.

You want healthy teeth.

People with misaligned teeth are more likely to experience oral health problems such as teeth grinding and recurring cavities. You can brush and floss regularly and see your dentist every six months, but when your mouth is out of alignment, there are always teeth and gum issues that can come up. By straightening your teeth and jaw with Invisalign, it will be easier to care for your teeth and maintain good oral health.
