It\u2019s one problem with getting it known, no one can see our patients wearing their aligners, so they can\u2019t ask about them and be told, \u2018Yes, they\u2019re amazing and I goth them at Amsel &amp; Wilkins\u2019. Instead, people just see teeth magically getting straighter, if they notice at all, because it\u2019s a gradual process. More likely that, someone might say \u2018Hey, didn\u2019t you used to have wonky teeth?\u2019 Or more likely not, because we\u2019re British and we don\u2019t do stuff like that.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How does Invisalign work?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Invisalign doesn\u2019t have brackets and wires that are cemented to the fronts of the teeth. Instead it relies on a series of mouth guard-style rigid, very thin, transparent aligners. These snap on over the teeth and are so thin that, at 0.3 millimetres, they disappear when they are in place. Very few people spot them because they\u2019d have to be staring hard into someone\u2019s mouth to do so, and that\u2019s just not polite, is it?<\/p>\n<p>The other great thing about this way of straightening teeth is that Invisalign aligners are removed for eating, and cleaning. This saves a whole lot of time in the bathroom poking about with interdental sticks. It also means that you can continue to eat whatever you like without fear of bunging up or breaking your straightening device.<\/p>\n<p>The aligners do need to be worn for 20\u201322 hours a day, but people find that doing so keeps their eating on the straight and narrow, and some even lose a bit of weight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At Amsel &amp; Wilkins, we get to see just how much our patients who need teeth straightening love Invisalign in Banbury.
