Northland Smiles – Your Choice for NW Calgary Invisalign Braces

Looking to Straighten Your Teeth But Hate The Thought of Wearing Wire Braces? Invisalign Invisible Braces May Be Right For You!

The Northland Smiles Dental Team is pleased to offer NW Calgary Invisalign Braces! Invisalign is a clear alternative to braces, used to correct misaligned and crooked teeth.

 

What is Invisalign?

Invisalign Invisible Braces are the clear alternative to conventional braces. Patients as young as 13 years old and up are seeking Invisalign treatment as an alternative to conventional orthodontic treatments. Traditional orthodontics straighten your teeth using appliances and wire braces — and both have a reputation for being uncomfortable and unattractive. Traditional wire braces are hard to clean because food becomes trapped in the brackets and wires. Plaque also accumulates around the brackets and can lead to irreversible discoloration and tooth decay.

The Invisible Option for Orthodontic Treatment

The Invisalign orthodontics system uses a series of clear, removable aligners that gradually move your teeth into their proper alignment. Our Dental Team will monitor your progress through each set of custom-made aligners, to ensure your treatment is on track.

The length of your treatment will vary, depending on your starting point. However, most patients complete their treatment in 12-18 months which is similar to traditional orthodontic methods.

Treatment for Patients of All Ages

Invisalign is perfect for teens, age 13 and up all the way to those who are considered to be young at heart. Our dental team will evaluate your teeth and gums during your initial consultation, to rule out any contraindications for treatment and to determine if you are an ideal candidate to start treatment. If Invisalign isn’t right for you, we will discuss the many other dental services available to you.

Invisalign Invisible Braces are used to correct conditions such as:

  • Crowded Teeth: Teeth with crowding make it hard to brush and floss correctly and can lead to plaque accumulation, tooth decay and an increased chance of gum disease and, of course, the teeth look crooked.
  • Spaced Teeth: Too much space in between the teeth can often be treated using Invisalign. The spacing between teeth not only looks unattractive but can lead to concerns with the gum tissue such as periodontal pockets that can accumulate plaque and an increased risk of periodontal disease.
  • Crossbite: Crossbite means that the top and bottom jaws are not aligned correctly. This can lead to abnormal wear on the teeth in the form of chipping, and cracks and periodontal problems including gum disease and bone loss. Again, Invisalign is an option for crossbite, depending on your situation.

Healthy Teeth Throughout Your North Calgary Invisalign Treatment

Unlike traditional braces, the Invisalign aligners are removable, making it much easier for you to brush and floss your teeth throughout your treatment. Our patients also love being able to continue eating all of their favourite foods during treatment, again, thanks to the removable clear aligners.
