When you initially begin to research adult orthodontics, it can be confusing. Some articles and websites talk about clear braces while others talk about Invisalign, and often the terms seem interchangeable but can refer to quite different treatments.

What Is the Difference Between Invisalign and Clear Braces?

Invisalign is a clear braces system.

It uses aligners made from clear BPA-free plastic, which are removable. Invisalign is often called an invisible braces system because the aligners are very difficult to see once in the mouth. However, you may notice a slight halo effect around the teeth.

In comparison, fixed clear braces like clear Damon braces are similar to traditional orthodontic systems. They have brackets bonded onto teeth for the duration of treatment and which are connected to wires.

How Does Invisalign Work?

Invisalign uses clear aligners to firmly yet gently reposition teeth, utilizing low forces that are more comfortable for patients. Patients wear each set of clear aligners for two weeks before discarding them to move on to the next set in the series.

The number of sets required depends on the complexity of tooth movements needed to straighten teeth and correct any bite problems, including:

• Gaps
• Overbite
• Underbites
• Crossbites
• Uneven bite

Every aligner set is custom-created using Invisalign’s computerized software and technology and is designed to reposition each tooth precisely. The Invisalign treatment provides predictable results and is popular with adults and teens (Invisalign Teen).
