Shorter time!: Invisalign is much more efficient and precise in terms of tooth movements. Excellent results can be achieved with invisalign treatment without the added risk of periodontal disease, tooth decay and appearance! of course, please see a qualified general dentist or orthodontist who is enthusiatic about this method of treatment!

Depends: On what you value. If you want a beautiful smile but have a major aversion to wearing metal in your mouth, then yes. If you don't have any issues with metal braces, then they are likely a better value as far as costs and benefits.

Definitely, yes: Invisalign is a traditional braces alternative meant to straighten crooked teeth, close gaps and no metal mouth. They’re not for everyone (cost, severe overbites, uneven heights) so if you’re interested, it’s best to talk to both your regular dentist and book an appointment with orthodontist for evaluation and treatment. Good luck.

Worth it?: In carefully selected cases improved alignment and interdigitation can be achieved with clear aligners achieving about 40-50% of American Board of Orthodontics standards. In the same time frame, or less, braces can achieve 90-95% correction and better post-treatment stability. Please see a qualified Orthodontic Specialist for an initial examination.
