Is Invisalign Right For Me?

Many Bergenfield-area patients in need of orthodontic adjustment come to our office asking about Invisalign®. These clear plastic aligners are exceptionally popular, as they offer a comfortable, inconspicuous alternative to traditional metal braces.

The first step in any treatment, of course, is determining if you are a good candidate for a procedure. Fortunately, that process is quite simple when the procedure in question is Invisalign®. As a general rule, most patients with mild to moderate bite alignment issues who are candidates for traditional metal braces are also good candidates for Invisalign®.

These aligners can treat a range of orthodontic conditions, including:

• Overbite
• Underbite
• Cross-bite
• Crooked, crowded teeth

If you have one of these concerns, Invisalign® can correct it. At that point, determining if Invisalign® is right for you is all about you and your priorities. If you want an alternative to traditional metal braces that’s comfortable, custom-designed for your specific needs and completely inconspicuous, then Invisalign® is almost certainly the right choice for you. Keep in mind that if you experience severe bite alignment issues, Dr. Perlmutter may recommend a different orthodontic option in order to achieve more effective results.
