Invisalign Orthodontics 60048
If you think of orthodontics and the only picture that comes to mind is metal, then you are in for a pleasant surprise. At Arpino & Wollney Orthodontics, yes we do offer traditional metal braces, but these days you are not confined to that one possibility. Our Libertyville orthodontic treatment can also be done with clear ceramic braces or removable ones. Which one is right for you? Well, after you read this you will have a better idea of what each option has to offer. A consultation will then help you determine the most appropriate selection depending on your needs, your comfort level, and your budget. What is most important is that we can straighten your teeth and give you the strong and properly aligned smile you’ve been hoping for.
Traditional metal braces have been around for a very long time. And there’s a good reason for that. They work. In fact, they can work faster than other types of braces do and are typically the best way to go when your tooth alignment problem is severe. It’s also true that traditional metal braces are usually a more economical choice. There are some drawbacks to them, however. The most obvious one is cosmetic. Metal braces are obvious whenever you open your mouth. You also will need to restrict certain foods while wearing them. The brackets may also cause some irritation, particularly in the early going. Nevertheless, our Libertyville orthodontic treatment is pleased to offer metal braces and the plusses that they do provide.
Clear ceramic, made from composites, blend in with the color of your teeth and therefore have a distinct cosmetic advantage. For those who are self-conscious about wearing braces, this can be a huge plus. They are strong, too. You need not sacrifice any alignment power by passing over metal braces for these. They are also good at resisting stains, so if you have habits that are known to cause discoloration, such as drinking tea, coffee, red wine, or grape juice or you are a smoker, our Libertyville orthodontic treatment of choice might well be clear ceramic.
Invisalign, which is a clear aligner, has the benefit of being removable. In fact, although you do wear it most of the day and night, you will take it out for eating, brushing, and flossing. This means no dietary restrictions. They are less likely to cause discomfort. Like clear ceramic, they are also blend in very well and don’t draw attention to themselves. Invisalign is our Libertyville orthodontic treatment that utilizes advanced 3D computer technology to straighten your teeth. Call us today and schedule a consultation. With three wonderful choices available, aligning your teeth has never been simpler.
