The Invisalign package includes only the Invisalign treatment. The total cost of Invisalign® treatment is significantly influenced by the number of aligners required, and it also varies depending on the complexity of the treatment. The the treatment times vary accordingly.
Excluded in the treatment cost:
This is when the upper teeth overlap the lower teeth. A small amount of overlap is normal, but more severe cases of overbite can cause pain when eating or chewing.
An underbite is the opposite of an overbite. The lower jaw protrudes in front of the upper jaw, causing the lower teeth to overlap the upper teeth. This can cause problems with eating, chewing, or talking.
A crossbite is where the upper teeth fit behind the lower teeth, which can cause tooth decay or difficulty speaking.
This is where the upper and lower teeth are unable to fully close together. This may cause tooth sensitivity and a lisp in your speech.
Teeth spacing occurs when there are larger gaps between teeth, as shown in the front teeth above. Gaps between two or more teeth can cause speech difficulties, and food particles can become stuck between teeth more easily.
Tooth crowding occurs when there is not enough space in the jaw for all of the teeth to grow and fit in. This causes some teeth to be pushed to one side or grow in a twisted position, resulting in mild to severe crowding.
Here is a step-by-step overview of the Invisalign process:
One of the main reasons why people say Invisalign is better than traditional braces is its aesthetic nature. Invisalign is a set of clear aligners that are virtually invisible. They are harder to detect than traditional braces and are a discreet alternative to conventional fixed braces.
You can remove your aligners when cleaning and brushing to ensure optimal oral hygiene. This is because you won’t have to maneuver around the wires and brackets. It is also suggested that this can improve your periodontal health by decreasing the number of bacteria that hide around your teeth and gums.
You can remove your aligners swiftly and simply whenever you need to. This means that you can eat your favorite foods without having to worry about damaging your braces.
The aligners are made of smooth, comfortable plastic which is less likely to irritate your cheeks and gums.
Unlike traditional braces with wires and brackets, you can eat whatever you like during the course of treatment because you can remove your aligners to eat and drink.
Invisalign straightens your teeth with 75% more predictability, backed up by years of research.
There are a lot of people who wear conventional braces who have experienced brackets falling off or wires breaking, which resulted in them having to make an unexpected trip to the orthodontist. Using Invisalign eliminates the possibility of you experiencing that issue.
Our dentists use 3D imaging to look at your teeth and make custom aligners for you. Before you even start your treatment, you’ll be able to see how your smile will look when it’s straighter.
You can remove your aligners, but it is easy to lose them.
For the teeth to move effectively, the patient must be willing to wear the aligners for at least 22 hours a day, which is almost all the time. If you believe that you will be compelled to take them out more frequently, this option is probably not the best one for you.
It does appear to indicate that Invisalign is more successful for individuals whose teeth only require certain types of movement. When dealing with more complicated conditions, depending on the complexity, your dentist might recommend trying a different method. In addition, if any of your teeth already have crowns or bridgework attached to them, then Invisalign may not be the best choice for you.
The cost of Invisalign in Singapore is typically higher than the cost of conventional, tooth-colored/metal fixed braces. This is because the Invisalign laboratory charges high fees for the creation of the series of aligners.
Invisalign is not for everyone. If you have severe tooth misalignment, Invisalign may not be the best option for you. You should also be prepared to take good care of your aligners and to remove them when eating and drinking.
You must remove your aligners before eating or drinking anything. If you don’t, food or liquid could get into them. This can encourage the growth of bacteria, which can lead to cavities. Liquid can also stain your aligners and your teeth.
With Great Teeth Comes Great Responsibility
Invisalign is a convenient way to straighten your teeth, but the aligners are like another set of teeth. Not only do you have to take care of your teeth, but you’ll also have to clean and take care of some pretty delicate medical devices.
Aligner Care
Invisalign’s clear design means no one will notice you’re wearing them. However, neglecting your aligners can lead to discoloration and germs can cause foul odors and tooth decay.
Cleaning
You should clean the trays with a soft toothbrush that won’t scratch them. You can add a small amount of clear antibacterial soap and then wash them well with warm water. Do not use toothpaste to clean the trays because it is too rough.
You should also brush and floss your teeth after every meal. Putting the aligners back in while food is still on them can cause cavities or other issues.
Rinsing
Rinse the trays each time you remove them. If you’re not soaking them, put them in a case. Bacterial growth can occur when left outside.
Food & Drink
Water is the only thing you can drink with Invisalign. Remove the aligners for anything else. Brush your teeth before reinserting them.
You will need to brush your teeth at work, restaurants, friends’ houses, and more. It is best to carry a travel-size set with an extra brush and a toothpaste.
Wearing Retainers
Retainers to maintain teeth positions after the package ends. They have to be worn at least 8 hours per day in the first year.
