Invisalign FAQs & Tips

Protecting Your Oral Health With Invisalign

Protecting Your Oral Health With Invisalign

It can be a struggle to maintain good oral health if you have crowded and crooked teeth. Straightening your teeth with Invisalign can help protect your oral health in the long-term. Here, our dentists explain how. 


Having straight teeth is more than just aesthetically pleasing. Protect your long-term oral health by seeking treatment to correct misaligned or crooked teeth. 

Invisalign clear braces are a great option for improving a good oral health routine, in addition to visiting your dental office for regular cleanings and exams, and practicing good oral hygiene routines at home. 

The Problem With Crooked Teeth

It's difficult to reach certain areas of your mouth for proper brushing and flossing if your teeth are crooked and crowded. This can put your smile at risk of decay and disease.

It can be hard to chew some foods if misaligned teeth affect your bite. The uneven pressure on teeth caused by a misaligned bite could even cause some teeth to wear down.

Teeth that stick are also problematic. They are more easily chipped or broken and place excessive force on other teeth, which can lead to eventual bone loss and tooth injury. 

The Invisalign Solution

To achieve a straighter smile and protect your long-term oral health, consider orthodontic treatments such as Invisalign. Invisalign can help to straighten your teeth and prevent future issues from developing like tooth decay and gum disease. 

Once your Invisalign orthodontic treatment is complete, you will be able to brush and floss your teeth more thoroughly and safeguard your mouth from disease and decay.
