Why Winter Is a Great Time for Invisalign

There is never a bad time to start Invisalign treatment. There are, however, some seasons of the year that lend themselves to getting off to a good start with this cosmetic dentistry alternative to orthodontia. Winter is a great time to begin your Invisalign journey.

It’s a New Year!

January is the launch of a new year, but even if you get to February or March before you make a move, you still have “time” to make good on your resolution to change your smile and do something good for yourself and your overall wellness.

The Holidays Are Over

Were you concerned about interrupting your winter holidays with trips to the dentist? Now you don’t have to worry about any major December/January event getting in the way of your Invisalign treatment. And, if you start now, there is a very good possibility you’ll already notice your smile starting to change by Valentine’s Day.

Valentine’s Day Is Around the Corner

Speaking of February 14, if you’re on the hunt for love, Valentine’s Day can make you feel hopeful or angry. With Invisalign in place your confidence will get a boost because those aligners are nearly invisible, which means while you’re working on upgrading your appearance and flirting as often as possible, no one needs to know you’re also wearing Invisalign.

This Is Cozy Season

Unless you’re a winter sports daredevil and spend as much time in the cold as possible, this is the season of the year that is meant for hunkering down and cozying up. If you’re snuggled in on most nights, huddled by the fire or under a weighted blanket with a book, Invisalign has a lot of room to do a lot of work and you don’t have to worry about dealing with Invisalign in social situations.

You Can Still Eat Whatever You Want

One of the biggest perks of Invisalign – besides being barely noticeable – is that it’s removable. So, you have zero restrictions when it comes to what you eat, other than the restrictions you give yourself. Just remember to clean your teeth and aligners before they come back together – you don’t want any food getting stuck in between and festering there.

You Could Kickstart Your Weight Loss

Even though Invisalign lets you eat whatever you want whenever you want as long as you remove the aligners first, some patients find themselves enjoying the side effect of mindfulness. “Do I really want to take out my aligners just to have that slice of cake?” “I’ve had my aligners out for long enough – it’s time to skip that second helping and put Invisalign back in place.” These seemingly insignificant decisions can actually add up to a few pounds of weight loss, which many Invisalign patients welcome.

You Deserve It

If you have long wanted a straight smile, Invisalign could be your route to getting it. This discreet alignment method is popular among adults and teens alike for the many perks it offers, the ease of use, and the speed with which treatment is usually completed.
