Older teens and adults looking to straighten their teeth rarely want other people to notice that they have braces. Thankfully, invisible braces with different types and options are available. If you live in Griffin, GA, Lindsey Orthodontics can show you what invisible options are available to you. Contact them to see (or not see!) these orthodontics today.
Some Invisible Braces Require Constant Upkeep and Changing
In the last three decades, orthodontics has come a long way. One of the most popular options for invisible braces is the tray kind that you insert and remove. They are clear and difficult to spot, but you do have to keep swapping them out for a new set every 1-4 weeks.
The latest development in invisible braces is InBrace braces. Technology has reached a new high in orthodontics. These intricately designed wires are worn behind your natural teeth. Nobody can see them, and patients can hardly feel them. Patients looking for orthodontics in Zebulon, GA, or Griffin now have access to this new technology.
How They Are Made
Imagine if you took brace brackets and joined them with wire before flattening them completely. It's hard to imagine until you see the SmartWire. Each of these resembles what a set of brackets would look like in flattened steel all connected together.
They don't look like a lot until you pick one up and hold it in your fingers or hand. They are very solid and unyielding to extreme pressure. Yet they fit into your mouth behind your teeth so seemingly easy. The strength of the design comes from the wavy flattened connection between the flattened brackets.
How They Work
Shaped to fit your unique mouth shape and teeth, they are designed to be just slightly different from the organic shape of your teeth. This slight difference pushes your teeth in the direction the orthodontist wants the teeth to go. They are bonded to teeth that don't have to be moved (or moved much) for the orthodontic treatment plan.
They Are Not Removable
They are not removable, they cannot break or break off, and they require almost no tension adjustments. They work by simple resistance. This SmartWire design allows the InBraces orthodontics in Zebulon, GA to stay in place, remain hidden from view, and let patients eat, drink, and brush normally.
