At <strong>Aura Dental<\/strong> we only look to those\northodontic appliances that offer a high degree of efficacy and desirable\noutcomes patients want. <strong>Invisalign St John&#8217;s Wood<\/strong>\nremains a top choice for patients but it must be said that not adhering to best\npractice guidelines is a sure-fire way to derail the teeth-straightening\nprocess. We encourage patients to see the investment in their treatment plan as\nmore than just money but also an investment in time and effort to give them a\ngreat-looking smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Correct ways to use Invisalign for a great orthodontic experience<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Invisalign is a fantastic choice for patients looking for an\northodontic appliance that fits in well with their lifestyles. Priority areas\nfor patients include comfort, less visibility and less complicated teeth\ncleaning routines. Invisalign aligners can provide all this and more. To\nbenefit from the advantages offered by the aligners, patients will have to\ncommit to a few guiding principles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The commitment to using the aligners as recommended becomes\nthe first golden rule. There are two critical parts to this golden rule:\nwearing the aligners for at least 22 hours a day and sticking to the aligner\nchange schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The aligners are only permitted to be taken out for specific\nreasons and for a limited time; these being to eat, drink and clean teeth.\nEating with the aligners on can damage them and drinking liquids can stain or\nwarp them if hot. Brushing teeth is also not possible when the aligners are\nworn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is important to adhere to the aligner change schedule\nreligiously to keep one\u2019s treatment plan on track. The system works by the\npatient wearing a series of aligners, each designed to shift teeth in a\nspecific timeframe \u2013 one to two weeks. Once the allotted time is up, the next\naligner in the series needs to be worn. Forgetting to change aligners according\nto the schedule will prolong the duration of treatment; an undesirable event\nfor any orthodontic patient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure to use the aligner-designed storage case when not\nwearing aligners. Patients won\u2019t always be at home when it is time to remove\nthe aligners; they may be on lunch at work or out for lunch with friends and\nfamily. During these times, keeping the aligners safely stored in their storage\ncase should be a priority. Aligners getting lost or damaged can easily thwart\nthe process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next to keeping the aligners safe is to clean them only as\ndirected. The aligners are made from thermoplastic material infused with\nintuitive technologies. Using anything other than dedicated aligner cleaning\nproducts, even regular toothpaste and mouthwashes, can interfere with the way\nthe aligners work. In the same way that cleaning teeth is important so too is\nmaking sure that the aligners are hygienically clean before putting them on.\nBad bacteria can accumulate in the trays and re-enter the mouth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When seeking quality orthodontic care, patients should not\noverlook the credentials of an experienced dental practitioner. We have helped\nmany patients realise their dream smiles with comfortable and convenient\nteeth-straightening treatment plans so choose <strong>Aura Dental<\/strong> to give you the smile you crave.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As with any teeth-straightening treatment plan, patients will need to make a few adjustments to their lifestyles.
