Invisalign is a revolutionary new orthodontic treatment that allows patients to straighten their teeth without the use of traditional metal braces. Whilst traditional metal braces have worked and evolved for decades to include increased comfort, shorter treatment times and more fine-tuned adjustments, Invisalign is really the next step in orthodontic treatment that many adults and teens are interested in receiving for convenience.

Here are the five C’s of Invisalign which stand as excellent reasons to select this treatment option over other forms of orthodontic treatment. Accordingly, always look for an Invisalign Elite Provider.

Come out:

Perhaps one of the strongest cases for Invisalign aligners is that they can be removed at any time. This leaves you virtually restriction free during your treatment. With some types of braces you need to avoid certain types of food, and you can also feel very self-conscious as people can see your orthodontic appliance at all times.

Invisalign is removable at any time, meaning that you can keep up with your oral hygiene throughout the course of your treatment as well as remove them to enjoy any food that you may want throughout treatment.

Customization:

With precise 3-D modeling, your orthodontist can work to move your teeth into the exact position that you want them. As aligners are used in treatment, each aligner can focus on a specific issue and move teeth into place perfectly.

Clear:

As many people feel self-conscious when others can see them with an orthodontic appliance, Invisalign wearers do not need to feel this way at all. Invisalign is completely clear making it virtually invisible. You can smile bright and wide and no one will know that you are wearing any type of orthodontic appliance.

Comfortable:

Invisalign is one of the most comfortable treatments that you can receive from an orthodontic appliance. The aligners designed for comfort and completely removable. In addition, they are refreshed every two weeks. Not to mention, adjustments will be minimal and will ensure your comfort throughout your treatment.

Continuously Improving:

The Invisalign aligners will be replaced every two weeks on average. This gives you a sense of accomplishment knowing that you are one step closer to the end of your treatment. Braces can simply stay on for an extended period with minor adjustments until your treatment is completed.

You will usually know the total number of aligners that you will need to reach your goal. By counting down each aligner you dispose of you can see the alignment of your teeth improving throughout the course of your treatment and you can start to enjoy the benefits of immediately.

Look for an Invisalign Teen Provider

In order for a provider to qualify as an Invisalign Teen provider, Dr. Panucci must have at least four patients between the ages of eleven and nineteen per quarter. This means at least sixteen patients a year, and plenty of experience using the plastic aligners to treat the specific problems that teenagers face.

Look for an Invisalign Elite 1% Provider

Finally, the Elite level makes up only 1% of all providers who offer Invisalign. Completing the ten classes a year and treating more than three hundred cases in their practice’s lifetime. Dr. Panucci also has to treat at least forty-eight cases every six months. These providers are dentists and orthodontists who are treating many different cases at the same time.

Now onto P…

In conclusion, Dr. Panucci is an Elite Provider. After receiving precise treatment instructions from Dr. Panucci, Invisalign uses advanced computer technology to translate these instructions in a sequence of finely calibrated aligners — as few as 12 or as many as 48. Each aligner is worn for two weeks – you remove them to eat, brush and floss.  Look no further for Invisalign treatment in Southern California.
