Smile forms a major part of any personality. An unattractive smile can make you feel a little conscious about yourself. The recesses between the teeth make them very unappealing. Invisalign and braces are two possible solutions to make your teeth flawless. But which one has an upper hand? Have you ever consulted your Newmarket dentist about it?

Both invisalign and braces have their pros and cons. Their usage is determined by the nature of the problem, for some simple denture problems invisalign is recommended by invisalign Newmarket dentist while for other complex problems braces are advised by dentist Newmarket.

>> When to use dental braces –

Generally braces are used when the nature of problem is very complex. When the gap between the teeth is very wide or when the teeth are not aligned properly, dental braces can work wonders. The best advantage of dental braces is that the brackets are joined with a wire to the teeth and hence they hold the teeth more firmly in comparison to invisalign. Dental braces need not be removed, they are more or less permanent and removal is done only after the attainment of proper alignment.

>> When to use Invisalign –

Invisalign are transparent trays that support teeth to ensure proper arrangement of teeth. They are usually changed after every 24 hours but there are some long lasting trays that can go for about six months or a year. The best advantage of invisalign is that they are invisible and hence do not lower the self-esteem of a person in any social setting and because of this they are usually preferred by youngsters, who are very much concerned about their appearance. But they are only preferable for minor flaws and shifts.
