Difference Between Traditional Braces and Invisalign
Let's take a closer look at the differences between Invisalign and traditional braces:
Appearance: Invisalign is virtually invisible. They are made of clear, plastic aligners that fit over your teeth like a mouthguard, making them very discreet. Whereas traditional braces consist of metal brackets and wires attached to the teeth and are much more noticeable.
Comfort: Invisalign has no wires or brackets, making them more comfortable to wear than traditional braces. Invisible aligners also do not require frequent adjustments.
Convenience: Invisalign aligners are removable, so you can take them out to eat, brush, and floss, making them more convenient than traditional braces.
Treatment Time: In some cases, traditional braces may be able to correct dental issues more quickly than Invisalign. However, Invisalign treatment times have improved in recent years, and many patients can achieve their desired results quickly.
Cost: In general, Invisalign tends to be more expensive than traditional braces. However, the exact cost will depend on the severity of your dental issues, the length of your treatment, and other factors.
