Jun 18, 2015 /prREACH/ -- Jacksonville, FL cosmetic dentist Dr. Michael McClure is helping teen and adult patients improve their smile and feel confident with their appearance in the process with Invsalign invisible braces.
Unlike conventional braces that can make patients feel self-conscious of their smile, Invisalign offers the same aligning capabilities without the bulkiness and appearance of brackets and wires. Invisalign is designed to straighten teeth with mild to moderate misalignment, gapping, or crowding. Instead of metal brackets and wires, Invisalign trays are custom fitted to the patient’s teeth and are made from soft, clear plastic that is virtually invisible when worn. Additionally, the clear aligners are completely removable, offering patients more lifestyle flexibility during the course of treatment.
Michael McClure, Invisalign and general dentist in Jacksonville, FL. Invisalign utilizes some of the latest 3D imaging technology to create a series of clear plastic aligners that they wear throughout the course of their treatment, switching them approximately every two weeks. The aligners gradually align the teeth using different forces than conventional braces, which results in less pain and discomfort for patients.
The clear plastic aligners should be worn 22 hours per day for best results, and are removed while eating or drinking anything other than water. Additionally, patients have the option of removing the aligners for special occasions such as important meetings, interviews, photographs, presentations, and reunions. The removable aligners also help promote oral health during orthodontic treatment, as they allow patients to brush and floss properly with less time requirements to do so as compared to conventional braces.
For patients who need more comprehensive treatment than just Invisalign, Dr. Michael McClure is a board certified general dentist in Jacksonville, FL who also provides cosmetic treatments such as dental implants, veneers, Lumineers, crowns, bridges, and more.
Dr. Michael McClure has more than 15 years of experience and has been practicing in the Jacksonville area since 2005. He is one of a small percentage of dentists in the U.S. who has been awarded a Mastership in the Academy of General Dentistry.
