However, many patients quickly grow frustrated with having metal brackets bonded to their teeth for the duration of their orthodontic treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thankfully, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sagedentalnv.com\/invisalign.html\">Invisalign<\/a> is a clear alternative that can reposition your teeth without as many restrictions. Continue reading to learn more about 3 freedoms it provides so you can decide whether it\u2019s the best option for you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Freedom #1: Fewer Dietary Restrictions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The brackets and wires that come with traditional orthodontics are infamous for trapping pieces of food against your pearly whites, which can contribute to cavities and gum disease. Furthermore, the brittle metal can snap or be yanked out of place if you eat anything overly hard, sticky, or sugary. As a result, your dentist may share a hefty list of foods to avoid when you undergo this treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Invisalign, meanwhile, features clear plastic trays that are intended to be removed for meals. That means you can enjoy all your favorite meals without worrying that you\u2019ll harm the material. Store them safely in their carrier case while you eat, then rinse your mouth before reinserting them and continuing with your day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Freedom #2: Lead an Active Social Life<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Did you know that people with dental problems are statistically more likely to report feeling nervous, depressed, or so self-conscious that they try to avoid other people? If you\u2019re already concerned about the way you look, then getting braces might only exacerbate your anxiety. You might find yourself turning down invitations or trying to escape gatherings early because you\u2019re embarrassed about your appearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fortunately, Invisalign is a more aesthetically pleasing solution for shifting teeth to their ideal placements. With it, you\u2019ll be able to make the most of your time with co-workers, family, and friends without as much fear of being judged. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Freedom #3: Experience Less Discomfort<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Any treatment that exerts enough force over your teeth to move them has the potential to cause some aches, but patients with braces have additional concerns to deal with. The sharp corners of the brackets and ends of the wires can poke the tender tissues inside your mouth, like the insides of your lips and cheeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although you may feel some pressure or tenderness when you initially wear a new set of Invisalign trays, you\u2019ll typically experience fewer problems than with traditional orthodontics. The smooth plastic won\u2019t wound the inside of your mouth and can even protect your teeth if you suffer from bruxism (teeth grinding).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re still feeling unsure whether Invisalign is the best way to reposition your grin, the best way to find out is to schedule a consultation with your dentist!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At Sage Dental Care, you benefit from two skilled dentists who work together to provide a full range of services from one convenient location.
