Will This Brace System Work For My Teeth?

The Invisalign® system is a prefect choice for many different alignment problems to correct them including patients that have over crowded teeth. This means that there is not enough room for the teeth to be straight in the mouth without the help of an orthodontist making some corrections.

This type of system can also help people that have widely spaced teeth, which in many cases means the jawbone has grown larger than needed and with the proper correction the spaces will narrow. This is important because there are periodontal diseases that can occur when the teeth are widely spaced.

Cross bites are also a problem that Invisalign® can correct in most cases and is important to the person that has the cross bite. The cross bite is when the upper and lower jaw are misaligned and the upper teeth bite to the inside of the lower teeth. This can cause the teeth to wear, gum disease and bone loss.

This is also a brace system that works well for the over bite patient, this is the person that has a problem where the upper teeth protrude over the lower teeth. This can be caused by genetics and can cause wear on the lower teeth as well as problems with causing pain in the jaw.

The patient with an under bite can benefit from the Invisalign® series of braces. This is a person where the bottom teeth close past the upper teeth, this is caused by the over growth of the lower jaw and the under development of the upper jaw.
