You will also appreciate the lifestyle benefits previously mentioned (more on that in a moment).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep in mind that there\u2019s more to your teeth than their appearance. Your tooth alignment (or lack of it) impacts a variety of other oral health issues.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Orthodontic treatment, including Invisalign\u00ae\ufe0f, is effective for solving those dental problems. Your longterm oral health quality depends on straight, properly aligned teeth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>What Invisalign\u00ae\ufe0f does for your teeth besides straighten them<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><b>1. Produces better tooth and gum health<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Poor tooth alignment sets in motion a number of dental problems. Many of them go unnoticed until treatment is required.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Misaligned or crooked teeth can increase your risk of tooth decay or gum disease. The spaces created by tooth misalignment give oral bacteria more room to thrive and multiply. Decay, cavities, and periodontal (gum) disease are caused by an overrun of bacteria.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Invisalign\u00ae\ufe0f gradually moves your teeth into healthy alignment. The gaps between your teeth are eliminated giving bacteria less room to enter and do damage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And what\u2019s good for your overall oral health (in this instance) also comes with additional benefits. Invisalign also\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>2. Enhances your lifestyle and your attitude about dental health<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Orthodontic treatment brings a number of changes to your daily routine. For example, traditional braces are often uncomfortable. The wires and brackets can also require more attention with your daily oral hygiene.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Food particles are more easily trapped beneath standard braces. This makes routine care important to avoid decay.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Invisalign\u00ae\ufe0f aligners can be removed. You will enjoy eating and be able to brush and floss without being hindered by braces.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your Invisalign\u00ae\ufe0f orthodontic treatment improves your oral health and your attitude about it. Straight, properly aligned, healthy teeth can increase your motivation to prioritize your overall dental health.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.advancedcenterforcosmeticdentistry.com\/contact\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Contact your St. Petersburg cosmetic dentistry specialist, Roberto Macedo, DDS, MS, PhD.<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> about straightening and improving the health of your teeth.
