You\u2019re not alone if you\u2019re feeling self-conscious about somewhat gapped or overcrowded teeth. Plenty of people have turned to orthodontics to straighten their smiles to enhance their appearance and improve their dental health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, bulky metal brackets can be awkward and uncomfortable. That\u2019s why many patients have opted for Invisalign<\/a> to reposition their pearly whites instead. This alternative orthodontic service utilizes clear plastic trays that fit snugly over your arches to gently shift them more discreetly. If you\u2019ve been waiting for the perfect time to start this treatment, continue reading to learn why summer is ideal!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Reason #1: More Flexible Schedules<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Many families plan exciting vacations to exotic cities and faraway places during the summer when school is out of session. With so many employees requesting time off work, there\u2019s a good chance your work calendar is also more flexible than usual this time of year. That\u2019s good news if you want to start Invisalign because it can take a couple of visits to get started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, you must consult your dentist to ensure you\u2019re a good candidate for this treatment. Then, if you\u2019re approved, your provider will need to make impressions and order your aligners, which might require a separate visit. You\u2019ll also be required to attend periodic follow-up visits every few weeks so your dentist can track your treatment progress. The laid-back summer schedule allows you to book as many appointments as needed without worrying that you\u2019ll miss major deadlines, meetings, or assignments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reason #2: Additional Time to Adjust<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Although Invisalign is considered more comfortable than standard braces, any treatment that exerts enough force on your teeth to shift them has the potential to hurt. It\u2019s normal to feel sore when you begin this treatment and then again when you switch to a new set of trays. You might develop a slight lisp or struggle to eat hard foods, like raw fruits and veggies, until you\u2019ve acclimated to the aligners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thankfully, there\u2019s plenty of downtime during the summer to adjust. Whether you spend your days lounging by the pool or binge watching the latest show at home in the air conditioning, you\u2019re more able to relax through this transition than during the fall when normal activities resume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reason #3: Look Great for Summer Photos<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Another reason so many patients choose Invisalign is that the transparent trays allow your natural teeth to shine through. Then, because you can start to see changes within a couple of weeks, you\u2019ll have an already-enhanced grin to show off throughout the summer months. That means you\u2019ll look and feel confident for all the summer photos with friends and family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With so many advantages to getting Invisalign during the summer, there\u2019s no reason to delay! Contact your dentist today to schedule your consultation and start your journey to a beautifully straightened smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
