From its introduction, Invisalign became the gold standard for invisible dental treatments. Our Huntington Beach dentist received many requests for more information about the treatment, and it remains one of our most sought-after treatments.
When Invisalign arrived on the scene, there were numerous limitations for its use. As time passed, the science behind Invisalign improved. The advances opened opportunities for patients who had misalignments Invisalign could not treat in the past to use Invisalign.
Invisalign is an excellent option for patients with numerous dental issues. These include:
• CROWDING- The condition where there is not enough space in the patient’s mouth to hold all of their teeth. Generally, some teeth will turn or overlap, causing problems with dental hygiene, speech, or comfortable eating.
• GAPS BETWEEN TEETH- Extra space between teeth often compromises the well-being of teeth because the teeth lack protection from the teeth that would normally be next to each other.
• OVERBITE- The top teeth do not align with the bottom teeth causing problems with chewing and biting. Additionally, an untreated overbite may also lead to a painful jaw condition
• UNDERBITE- When a patient experiences an underbite, the lower teeth push out in front of the upper teeth. The condition is occasionally called a bulldog bite.
• OPEN BITE- When the teeth do not meet correctly with the teeth above or below them. The open bite creates problems chewing and taking bites of some foods.
• CROSSBITE- A crossbite occurs when both the top and bottom arches are not aligned correctly. This leads to uneven wear of teeth. Often, bone loss will occur because of an untreated crossbite.
