Invisalign Charleston

What are the benefits of Invisalign?

Our orthodontics in Charleston, SC, offers a number of distinct advantages over braces, including:

• Aesthetic appeal: Many patients do not prefer the look or idea of metal brackets on their teeth. They are nearly impossible to miss, and some patients feel self-conscious of their smile when wearing metal braces. However, with the clear, understated appearance of Invisalign aligners, patients can receive inconspicuous orthodontic treatment.
• Comfort: Unlike the metal brackets and wire of traditional braces, the smooth plastic surface of Invisalign aligners are comfortable to wear. Many patients who wear metal braces complain of sores, scrapes, and rough patches caused by the metal. Athletes in particular are at risk of injuring their mouths. 
• Less office visits: Since Invisalign patients simply switch to a new series for an adjustment to their braces, there is much less time spent at the dentist’s office. Dr. Rink will schedule checkups every six weeks or so, to monitor your progress or suggest changes to upcoming aligners in your series.
• Simple and easy: The aligners will not interfere with your ability to eat, brush, or floss. Other than regular cleanings with lukewarm water and a brush, they do not require much maintenance. Most patients can easily add Invisalign treatment to their daily routine.  
• Improved oral health: By straightening your teeth, Invisalign makes it easier for you to clean the hard-to-reach spaces in your teeth. Even the most attentive patients cannot clean areas they cannot reach. With our approach, to provide more access to dental services, we bring Invisalign to Charleston that makes a substantial difference in protecting your oral health.
