Bexley Dental, a dental practice in Bexley, NSW, Australia, wants to emphasize the advantages of Invisalign over other clear aligners. Invisalign is often used as a substitute for traditional braces because it avoids those things that many people don’t like about metal braces. While conventional braces have undergone a lot of improvements during the past 10 years, they are still very much noticeable in the mouth, cause some discomfort for the cheeks and lips, and restrict the kinds of foods that can be eaten.

An Invisalign dentist at Bexley Dental explains, “Unlike traditional braces, which use wires and bands, cemented to teeth to slowly shift their position, Invisalign uses clear plastic aligners, similar to teeth whitening trays. Unlike your teeth whitening trays, your Invisalign aligners are customised using 3-D computer imaging technology, allowing us to show you the complete treatment plan from the initial position to the final desired position.”

The dentist continues, “From there, your entire series of aligners are custom made for a perfect, low-profile fit, that is designed to be worn but not seen. Your friends, co-workers and even family will never even know you’re wearing them.”

In a lot of instances, Invisalign may be used as a substitute for traditional braces, offering a more discreet, comfortable, and convenient treatment. And while Invisalign may seem to be more costly at first glance, it may turn out to be actually less expensive in the long run because the treatment time for Invisalign will take an average of 6 to 18 months, compared to the average of 24 months for traditional braces. In addition, Invisalign aligners are practically invisible and they are removable, although they may require the wearer to be disciplined in removing the Invisalign trays before eating or drinking and brushing the teeth after every meal before putting the trays back in.

The Invisalign dentist also wants to point out that Invisalign is superior to other clear aligners. In one of Bexley Dental’s recent press releases, they explained why Invisalign is better than other clear aligners in the market. The release focused on Invisalign vs Smile Direct Club and why they recommend Invisalign among other alternatives. Other clear aligners are self-administered at home by the patient while Invisalign is provided with the support of an orthodontist with a customised treatment plan.

The dentists at Bexley Dental are capable of offering dental services in various categories, including general dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, orthodontics, and preventive dentistry. For cosmetic dentistry, they can offer veneers, crowns and bridges, composite white fillings, inlays and overlays, and teeth whitening.

As part of general dentistry, they can offer root canal therapy, treatment for wisdom tooth, fillings, teeth x-rays, fissure sealants, and TMJ and TMD treatments. With regards to orthodontics, they offer orthodontics services for both adults and children.

They also offer dental implants as a better alternative to dentures and bridges. Aside from the fact that dentures and tooth supported bridges are uncomfortable for all-day wear, they don’t replace the root structure of missing teeth. This means that while the patient is chewing, the bone isn’t bearing the torque and weight of supporting a tooth. Gradually, the bone will lose its firmness, strength, and bone density. This may result in the surrounding teeth becoming loose and may even cause a change in the shape of the face. Dental implants may provide the solution. These are metallic screw-shaped cylinders, which are inserted directly into the jawbone, acting like the root of a natural tooth, thus keeping the bone healthy and strong.

Dental implants can be individual implants or All on 4 implants. In All on 4 implants, a set of upper or lower teeth is replace but instead of one implant for each tooth, they are supported by just four dental implants. Dr. Theo Spyrakis at Bexley Dental is an expert on All on 4 implants. Since learning about All on 4 20 years ago, Dr. Spyrakis has focused on this treatment and dedicated himself to learning from the very best regarding All on 4.
