Sometimes people feel self-conscious when they wear braces, hesitant to smile broadly.<\/span><\/p>\n
So, when Invisalign came on the scene a little over two decades ago, those patients had a new option that came with a couple of advantages. One was that the patient didn\u2019t need to go to the orthodontist\u2019s office regularly to have the metal braces adjusted as the teeth gradually moved toward their desired position. Instead, with Invisalign, the patient is given a set of trays and, every week or two, they remove one tray and put in the next.<\/span><\/p>\n
