More people now can see Invisalign’s effectiveness as a dental treatment. Their discrete and transparent aligning trays can fix your crooked teeth in just a year or so. However, did you know starting the process in summer has added rewards? Maybe not, but your dentist in Hamden does! Beyond the usual benefits, getting your first trays this season would improve the process. To prove it, here are three reasons why summer is the time to start straightening with Invisalign!
Flexible Scheduling
During the dog days of summer, most workplaces and schools are laxer with time. Bosses are more likely to give employees paid time off for vacations and other activities. Meanwhile, both public and private schools let kids use summer for play instead of class. Regardless of which one applies to you, you’ll have more time for personal things.
That being the case, your schedule has room for aligning trays. Though Invisalign involves seeing your dentist every six weeks for check-ups and new aligners, summer gives you room to handle those appointments. Plus, by the time the fall season sets in, you’ll have gotten used to the regular check-ins.
Time to Adjust
True, Invisalign is smoother and more comfortable than metal braces. Even so, you’ll still feel them doing their work on your teeth. Because they’re moving your teeth and roots, you’ll inevitably feel pressure during treatment.
Thankfully, summer usually isn’t stressful. Starting Invisalign this season will give you time to adjust to the trays without being bothered by work deadlines or school obligations. By the time August turns into September, you’ll be pain-free and ready to focus on other matters even as you continue alignment.
No “Metal Mouth” Summer Photos
If you were to get traditional braces at this point, your summer photos wouldn’t feature a gleaming white smile. Instead, they’d be filled with metal brackets and pesky wires that ruin the moment.
On the other hand, Invisalign’s aligners are discrete, transparent, and seamless enough to be virtually invisible. They’d let you have a camera-ready smile even while you wear them. Plus, except for your dentist, nobody would even notice them in your pictures!
Invisalign is a good decision for your teeth year-round. Still, summer adds benefits you wouldn’t get at other times. Talk to your dentist to see if aligning trays would be worthwhile in the coming days.
