It uses thin plastic trays that are much more comfortable and discreet than traditional braces. This has made them popular among teens, but you might wonder whether you can benefit as an older adult, too. Here\u2019s what you should know about age and orthodontic trays.<\/p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I Be Too Old to Get Invisalign?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To make a long story short, Invisalign can still be possible for you! There isn\u2019t a cutoff, but your dentist will want to make sure it\u2019s the right choice for you. Although these trays are effective, they aren\u2019t suitable for severe or complex orthodontic issues. They are often best for those with mild to moderate cases. By having a consultation, you can learn whether they can give you the results you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Should I Expect with Invisalign?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since Invisalign is still possible for older adults, you might wonder what you can expect from it. The average treatment timeline is 12 to 18 months, but what\u2019s true for you depends on your smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You\u2019ll have to wear your trays for 20 to 22 hours every day, and you\u2019ll swap to a new set every week or two. This will keep your teeth under constant, gentle pressure, allowing them to move into their desired positions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A benefit people love is how the aligners are removable. You\u2019ll take them out when it\u2019s time to eat or drink anything other than water. That said, before you put them back in, you\u2019ll need to brush and floss; that way, no debris gets trapped, and you avoid increasing your risk of cavities and decay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Can I Start My Invisalign Journey?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The best way to know whether Invisalign is right for you is to consult your dentist. They will examine your mouth and see what movements are required. If this type of orthodontics is effective for your case, then you can get started on your journey to a straighter smile. If not, then don\u2019t fret. Your provider can walk you through the next steps; that way, you know what you can do to get the healthier bite you deserve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Interested in Invisalign?
