Summer is here! And who doesn’t look forward to summer?
Summer is usually a time for taking time off work, going on vacation, or just
enjoying the extra time with family and friends. But did you know that summer
is also the perfect time to start Invisalign clear braces treatment?
One reason why summertime is the perfect time to start
Invisalign is that you can get used to wearing your aligners before returning
to work or school. Incorporating a new routine when you have downtime makes it
easier to do when you aren’t so busy. Therefore, starting your Invisalign treatment
during the summer, when you have downtime from school and/or work, will make
your transition when you back that much easier.
Another great reason is…you don’t have to worry about
missing out on any of your favorite summer foods. Delicious foods like corn on
the cob, hard tortilla chips and sticky candies are off limits to people wearing braces because foods like that can break brackets and wires. With
Invisalign clear braces, the aligners are removable so you’re eating habits won’t
be affected. That means you can say yes to all of your favorite summer treats!
Also…Invisalign makes going on vacation much easier. Traditional
metal braces require a visit to Dr. Hinesly’s orthodontic office every 6 – 8 weeks…more
often if you happen to experience a broken bracket or wire. When you travel
with Invisalign, you don’t have to worry about orthodontic appointments (or
broken brackets) because Invisalign only requires an orthodontic visit every 10- 12 weeks.
But the main reason why summertime is the perfect time to
start Invisalign clear braces treatment is…depending on your treatment plan, your
smile may be perfect by next summer! Invisalign works fast with full treatment time
averaging 6 to 15 months!
