Orthodontics in Framingham, MA

Smile with Alignment!

Most adults who are considering orthodontics to straighten their teeth or correct their bite lean toward the most discreet methods possible. Invisalign is one of the most popular and effective clear braces options, depending on your alignment needs. Consult with the experts at Atlantis Dental in Framingham, MA, to find out which dental braces are right for you.

What It’s Like to Wear Invisalign

If you qualify as a candidate for Invisalign, you will enjoy many benefits that wearers of traditional dental braces will never experience. Here’s what you need to know about wearing Invisalign every day:

  • Daily Life With Invisalign

    • Keep the trays on your teeth for 20 to 22 hours a day.
    • Remove aligners for meals, snacks, and all beverages besides water.
    • Soak the trays daily to keep them clear and odor-free.
    • Expect some pressure as the teeth begin to shift into their new positions.
    • Appreciate the comfort of smooth trays that do not snag your lips or cheeks.
    • Enjoy the ease of brushing and flossing normally, no special tools needed

Invisalign is largely a numbers game, and it works seamlessly with adults especially because they want an alignment method that is discreet and does not interfere with their job or lifestyle. Invisalign Teen is also great for the adolescent crowd because they are motivated to follow the rules to avoid any sort of metal braces that will stand out.


In general, Invisalign takes about one year to complete, but that’s for a full treatment. Some patients only need half that time to straighten out their smiles, while others with more complex cases may need a little longer.

What Kind of Dental Braces Are Right for You?

Having misaligned teeth is a cosmetic issue, but it’s also a functional matter. Teeth that aren’t straight can cause multiple oral health problems, including tooth decay, enamel erosion, gum recession, TMJ problems, broken teeth, and more. If you are dealing with a host of dental issues that are interfering with your daily life, it may be time to consider if dental braces are the right solution.
