Beyond its cosmetic advantages, many patients want to know whether Invisalign is safe. The process is among the safest cosmetic procedures.
A Gentle, Customized Approach
Invisalign works by using a series of clear, removable aligners that gradually shift your teeth into their natural alignment. These aligners are custom-made using 3D digital imaging and treatment planning, allowing for precise and controlled movements over time.
Each set of aligners is worn for about two weeks before progressing to the next one. The controlled and predictable nature of this process helps improve comfort and ensures safety for the teeth, gums, and jaw.
Fewer Risks Than Traditional Braces
One major advantage of Invisalign is its removability. You can take the aligners out when eating, drinking, or brushing, which makes it much easier to maintain excellent oral hygiene throughout your treatment. With traditional braces, it’s more common to experience plaque buildup and gum inflammation because cleaning around the brackets can be challenging.
There are also no metal wires to irritate the inside of your mouth, no risk of broken brackets, and fewer emergency visits. Invisalign helps eliminate many of the common safety concerns associated with conventional braces.
Monitoring and Professional Oversight
At Brentwood Dentistry, Dr. Naim oversees each Invisalign case with precise attention. Regular check-ins and exams every 6–8 weeks ensure your teeth are moving as planned, and that your gums, bite, and jaw remain healthy throughout the process. If any issues arise, they can be addressed quickly before they become a problem.
Designed with Comfort and Safety in Mind
Invisalign aligners are made from SmartTrack material, which is BPA-free, smooth, and specially designed for a comfortable fit. Compared to mail-order aligner kits that lack in-person supervision, Invisalign offers predictable outcomes guided by your trusted Brentwood and West Los Angeles dentist.
