Why Is Invisalign a Better Option Than Braces?

A straight, confident smile doesn’t just improve your appearance - it can enhance your oral health too. If you’re considering orthodontic treatment, you may be wondering whether traditional braces or Invisalign® is the right choice. At SmileOn Dentistry, we’ve helped countless patients across Los Angeles and Marina Del Rey achieve beautiful, aligned smiles with Invisalign. Here’s why many people find Invisalign a better option than braces.
 

Clear, Discreet Appearance

One of the biggest advantages of Invisalign is its virtually invisible design. The clear aligners fit snugly over your teeth, allowing you to straighten your smile without noticeable wires or brackets. This makes Invisalign ideal for adults and teens who want a more natural look during treatment.
 

Comfortable and Convenient

Invisalign aligners are made from smooth, BPA-free plastic, meaning no metal wires or brackets to irritate your mouth. Plus, the aligners are removable - you can take them out to eat, brush, and floss. This flexibility makes maintaining oral hygiene easier than with braces.
 

Fewer Office Visits

Traditional braces often require frequent adjustments, but Invisalign typically requires fewer visits to the dentist. You’ll switch to a new set of aligners every one to two weeks at home and visit our office periodically to ensure your treatment is on track.
 

No Dietary Restrictions

With braces, foods like popcorn, nuts, and chewy candies are off-limits. Invisalign aligners can be removed before meals, so you can continue enjoying your favorite foods without worry - just make sure to clean your teeth before putting your aligners back in.
 

Predictable Results

Invisalign uses advanced 3D imaging technology to map out your treatment plan from start to finish. You can see a preview of your expected results before you even begin, giving you confidence and motivation throughout the process.
