Vancouver Orthodontics Practice Highlights Invisalign Benefits Over Traditional Metal Braces
Metropointe Orthodontics in Vancouver promotes Invisalign as a discreet, comfortable alternative to metal braces with fewer office visits and better oral hygiene maintenance.
Vancouver-based Metropointe Orthodontics is promoting Invisalign as an effective solution for various dental alignment issues including gaps, overcrowding, underbite, overbite, and crossbite. The treatment offers a nearly invisible alternative to traditional metal braces, making it appealing to both adults and children who prefer a more discreet orthodontic approach.
The custom-fit aligning trays are manufactured from smooth, medical-grade plastic, which significantly reduces the likelihood of gum and cheek irritation commonly associated with metal braces. This superior comfort factor represents a major advancement in orthodontic patient experience according to the practice.
One of the most significant advantages highlighted is the removable nature of Invisalign aligners. Patients can remove the devices for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing, addressing common challenges with traditional braces such as plaque buildup, tooth decay, and gum disease management. The patient-controlled system maintains oral hygiene while providing effective teeth straightening.
The practice emphasizes reduced frequency of office visits as another distinct benefit. While traditional braces require constant in-office adjustments, Metropointe Orthodontics utilizes advanced 3D imaging technology to create digital images of the entire jaw. This technology allows orthodontists to move specific teeth virtually, view the jaw from multiple angles, and predict facial and jaw changes before manufacturing typically 20-29 sets of aligners per arch. Patients only require periodic check-ins to monitor progress rather than frequent adjustments.
