Here are six reasons to give thanks if you\u2019re undergoing this unique orthodontic treatment this holiday season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#1. Invisalign is Nearly Invisible<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the top reasons why Invisalign is so popular is the level of discreetness it offers! You can achieve the straight pearly whites you have always wanted without virtually anyone noticing.&nbsp; Many adults do not want to wear clunky metal wires and brackets from traditional braces; the clear aligners of Invisalign are a wonderful option to maintain a professional appearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#2. Invisalign is Removable<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Another benefit of Invisalign is that the aligners are removable. Braces are permanently cemented to your teeth during the entire treatment. With Invisalign, you have the option to remove them when needed. Although you do need to wear the aligners at least 20-22 hours a day (so they can gradually move your teeth into the desired place), it is a wonderful option to be able to remove them!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#3. You Can Eat Whatever You Want with Invisalign<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With traditional braces, you must avoid certain foods to keep the metal free from food particles. Thanks to the removability, Invisalign does not limit the types of food you can eat. This holiday, you can enjoy a piece of sticky pecan pie or some crunchy peanut brittle. As long as you take out your aligners and put them in a safe place, you may enjoy your usual treats!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#4. Invisalign Helps You Be Mindful of Your Diet<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Although you can still eat and drink whatever you want, many people find that Invisalign helps them to be more aware of how often they consume treats. Since you need to take your aligners out every time you eat or drink something other than water, snacking becomes much more of a cognizant choice. You may decide to forgo the late afternoon chips, soda, or candy bar due to the requirements of Invisalign. This can help you stick with your health goals! Especially during the holiday season when there are more goodies around than usual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#5. Invisalign Is Easy to Clean<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Since your aligners won\u2019t be exposed to any food particles or beverages other than water, they are very easy to clean! You won\u2019t have to dig inside metal brackets and wires to retrieve debris; you will simply remove them before you eat, then brush your teeth and aligners before placing them back onto your teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">#6. You Can Have a Straighter Smile More Quickly with Invisalign<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on your smile goals, Invisalign can straighten your smile within one to two years, while traditional braces can take up to three years. As long as you are consistent with your treatment, you can have your dream smile before you know it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As you think of all the things to be thankful for, big and small, be sure to add Invisalign to your list!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Justyna Balicka and her team at Huntington Orthodontics help you get the smile you\u2019ve always wanted!
