If you are an adult who doesn\u2019t want to go through the process of metal braces, we have an alternative method of teeth straightening known as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newmanfamilydentistry.com\/invisalign-realine.html\">Invisalign<\/a>. This product is a clear aligner that is used to straighten teeth in both teens and adults. We have found that this product is very popular among adults and can benefit them in creating the smile they want without the time commitment and hassle of braces. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><b>What is Invisalign and how does it work?<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.newmanfamilydentistry.com\/invisalign-realine.html\">Invisalign<\/a> is a very comfortable, nearly invisible way of straightening teeth without using conventional braces. While traditional braces involve metal brackets attached to teeth. The wires are then attached to the bracket and used to shift teeth. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newmanfamilydentistry.com\/invisalign-realine.html\">Invisalign<\/a> uses clear aligners, that are made custom to fit your teeth, which apply a gentler pressure over time to move teeth. The aligners are refitted over time as your teeth shift. The process usually involves around 8-12 aligners over a period of about 12-24 months. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are many benefits to using Invisalign over conventional braces. Many patients like using them for reasons such as:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They are mostly invisible even when eating or talking.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They are comfortable and relatively pain free.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Food doesn\u2019t get trapped between them like it does in metal braces.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They can be easily taken out to clean and floss. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Patients can go about their daily routine and don\u2019t need to cut certain foods out of their diet.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400; text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Patients don\u2019t have to deal with the sometimes painful wire tightening appointments that come with metal braces. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><b>Contact Us!<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Newman Family Dentistry serves the Indianapolis and Carmel, Indiana areas.
