Why Should I Choose Invisalign Over Fixed Braces?

We’ve all seen high school yearbook pictures of students with metal braces, and heard terms like “metal mouth”, or “tinsel teeth”. With the advanced bite correction methods that we use at Palm View Dental in Alhambra, CA, for most patients “metal mouths” are a thing of the past. Our licensed cosmetic dentists, Dr. Karen Ho and our team, are highly-trained in the latest smile-restoring products including Invisalign. To discover why more San Gabriel Valley patients are choosing Invisalign to restore their smiles to the beautiful, natural states they were meant to be, ask the dentist during your next office visit, or call us today at (626) 345-7474!

Is Invisalign an Option for Me?

Most patients that come into Palm View Dental with mild-to-moderate smile imperfections like teeth overcrowding, excessive gapping, over and underbites, and chewing discomfort due to a teeth misalignment, are candidates for Invisalign alignment trays. Those with more serious oral malocclusions are not, and do better with conventional fixed braces. The best way to determine if Invisalign is right for you is to meet with one of our dentists for an initial consultation. Please contact us today to schedule an appointment.

Invisalign vs. Fixed Braces

Here are some of the positive things that we’ve heard from our Invisalign patients, as opposed to those experienced by fixed braces wearers:

  • No eating discomfort due to the removable tray feature
  • Trays gently move their teeth into place over time
  • Much easier to brush and floss your natural teeth when the aligners are out
  • Smooth plastic doesn’t irritate their cheeks and gums like metal bands
  • Trays are virtually invisible which doesn’t make the wearer feel self-conscious
  • Affordable and cost-effective based on the overall experience  

At Palm View Dental we have seen some amazing smile-restoring outcomes in patients of all ages, even seniors, who have used Invisalign therapy!
