Perhaps you want to straighten your teeth, but you aren\u2019t\nsure if Invisalign is right for you. After all, it might seem inconvenient to\nvisit your dentist for periodic checkups, and perhaps you are concerned about\ncost as well. You might be wondering if an at-home clear aligner system might\nbe the better option for you. Read the information below before you make your\nfinal decision. We\u2019re confident that you\u2019ll decide Invisalign in\nMetairie<\/a> is the better choice!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Effectiveness<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Invisalign is effective because it uses state-of-the-art technology from the beginning to the end of the process. Whether Dr. Nelson is analyzing your teeth, you are previewing your potential results, or Invisalign is fabricating your aligners, you have the best of modern technology on your side. Plus, since Dr. Nelson has such an in-depth knowledge of how the teeth work and how they should move, you are practically guaranteed to enjoy outstanding results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With at-home orthodontics, it is a different story. It is almost\nimpossible to create accurate aligners based on an impression you take at home.\nTherefore, the aligners you receive may be extremely uncomfortable and not very\neffective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Safety<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Invisalign is a low-risk treatment because the precision\naligners are custom-crafted to deliver results without damaging your teeth.\nMoreover, Dr. Nelson and our team will be there to support you throughout your\ntreatment period. We want to form a personal relationship with you, and your satisfaction\nand safety are among our top priorities. Any time you have a question or\nconcern, we are ready to help. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At-home orthodontics are much less personal in nature. The\ncompanies that provide them may have a purely transactional relationship with\ntheir customers. Even more disturbing is that the aligners have a much higher\nrisk of causing oral damage. Gum recession, loose teeth, and damaged tooth\nroots are all possible outcomes of at-home orthodontics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cost<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It is true that at-home orthodontics cost less than\nInvisalign. However, the money you save by getting your treatment right the\nfirst time may make Invisalign more affordable in the long run. Plus,\nInvisalign may be easier to fit into your budget than you thought! Come visit\nus for our Invisalign Week <\/strong>November 18 \u2013 21.
