Are there other benefits from Invisalign?
Healthier gums — Studies show that properly aligned teeth are more likely to have gums “fit” tighter around them-which may lead to better periodontal health. Easier hygiene — Without the brackets or wires of traditional orthodontics, Invisalign patients have an easier time keeping good oral hygiene-which means less plaque build-up, tooth decay and periodontal disease. Improved chewing and speech — In some cases, speech problems result from poorly positioned teeth and jaws. Correction of the bite can help improve chewing and speech. Less wear and tear — Properly aligned teeth also create less stress on supporting bone and joints in the jaw.
