Introducing Invisalign: Clear Braces Horsham Residents Will Love

August 4, 2015

Invisalign treatment for your teeth.Invisalign treatment is within your grasp, all you need to do is take hold of it. If you’re new to the teeth-straightening world, or have never had to deal with misalignment issues in the past, Invisalign is the latest and greatest in straightening technology. What used to take multiple years to accomplish can now be taken care of in less than half the time. In the past, metal braces have been the dominant procedure when it came to correcting a smile’s alignment issues. Many years and countless hours of research and testing later, Invisalign is the futuristic way to straighten teeth. The best part? It can all be done invisibly to where nobody notices you straightening your teeth. How cool is that? True, braces can offer the same type of treatment, but it’s more painful and you won’t see the final results for an average treatment duration of five years. That’s too long to wait for real results. You’ve got a life to live and that shouldn’t involve sporting metal braces on your teeth. You’re older and need treatment that works. When you visit Horsham Dental Elements in our Philadelphia, PA and Horsham, PA, you’ll see firsthand just how beneficial Invisalign treatment is for your smile. For the best straightening treatment featuring Invisalign, Philadelphia residents are urged to check it out for themselves!

Get the Straight, Beautiful Smile You Deserve with Invisalign Clear Aligners

September 2, 2014

487780771It is a well-known fact that straight, healthy teeth are the essential building blocks of an attractive smile. Unfortunately, not everyone is born with flawlessly straight teeth, and orthodontic intervention is often necessarily. While traditional braces are certainly a viable option for some, many adults and image-conscious adolescents find that metal brackets and wires simply don’t appeal to them. If you’d like straighter teeth but would prefer to avoid metal braces, Horsham Dental Elements in Philadelphia, PA and Horsham, PA can help. With Invisalign clear aligners, Dr. Gary Henkel effectively and efficiently straightens smiles in a way that truly fits our patients’ lifestyles.

The Numerous Benefits of Invisalign

Invisalign treatment utilizes a series of clear, comfortable acrylic aligners that are custom-made to precisely fit your unique dentition. Approximately every two weeks, you’ll move from one set of aligners to the next in the series, following up with Dr. Henkel at routine appointments throughout the course of your treatment. Your new, straighter smile will gradually emerge, all without the hassle, cost, and time investment associated with metal braces. Patients love that they can straighten their teeth in a way that’s virtually undetectable and that their Invisalign aligners work so much more rapidly than conventional braces.

The benefits of the Invisalign system go beyond the realm of cosmetic enhancement. Properly aligned teeth are substantially easier to clean and, therefore, they are typically healthier. Patients with straighter teeth have a considerably lower incidence of tooth decay and periodontal disease, the latter of which has been linked to serious health conditions. When you straighten your teeth, you improve both the appearance of your smile and your overall physical health.

If you’re an adult who prides themselves on presenting a polished image in their everyday lives, pursuing orthodontic treatment can feel like an impossible dream. There’s always the option of traditional braces to correct your gaps or misalignments, but you’ve worked hard to establish yourself as a professional; the last thing you need is a mouth full of metal that makes you feel like you’re back in junior high. Here at Horsham Dental Elements in Horsham and Philadelphia, Dr. Henkel feels that his patients deserve a better option that doesn’t force them to pick between dental correction and self-confidence – that’s where Invisalign comes in! With this revolutionary new orthodontic method, patients can transform their smiles smoothly and seamlessly.

How does Invisalign work?

It’s simple – you’ll be provided with a series of clear, customized aligners, each one representing a different stage of your teeth as they move into their ideal alignment. All you have to do is wear each one for a predetermined amount of time before switching to the next in the set! With brief check-ups every six to eight weeks so that Dr. Henkel can check that your smile is progressing smoothly, you’ll be on the path to a beautifully transformed appearance!

There are numerous benefits to choosing Invisalign treatment over traditional orthodontics. There are no uncomfortable metal wires or unsightly brackets to suffer through – only clear, comfortable aligners that are easily removable, meaning that you won’t have to make any frustrating changes to your diet or oral hygiene routine. Best of all, Invisalign treatment is usually finished after around 12-18 months – a much shorter time than the multiple years that traditional orthodontics can require to be fully effective.
