If you\u2019re an adult and you think you\u2019re stuck with the smile you have, then think again. At Michel Dental in Topeka, KS<\/a>, we have changed\u2014and by changed we mean improved\u2014the smiles of many adults. One common complaint is crooked teeth. But as an adult you may not want to be bothered by the appearance or the feeling of having a mouthful of metal in your mouth. Fortunately, Dr. Michael Michel<\/a> offers Invisalign<\/a>\u00ae. With this orthodontic treatment, you can have braces that almost no one will notice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Invisalign<\/strong>, as the name suggests, straightens teeth practically invisibly. This system uses clear BPA-free plastic aligners to gradually straighten your teeth. The plastic is smooth and comfortable, not like the brackets and wires of traditional braces that can cause gum and soft tissue abrasions. In addition, these clear aligners are removable, so you can eat and drink the foods you love and brush and floss your teeth as you normally would. And with Invisalign<\/strong>, fewer appointments in the office are required, so you don\u2019t need to adjust your busy schedule all that much in order to have a straight smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Invisalign Treatment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The path to straight teeth begins with impressions, photos and x-rays of your existing smile. From these, the Invisalign<\/strong> lab creates a 3-D representation of your teeth, which Dr. Michel uses to create a treatment plan. This plan shows you how your teeth will move and shows the Invisalign<\/strong> lab how to produce your aligners. These will arrive in our office in a series of sets. You\u2019ll wear each set for approximately two weeks and then move on to the next. As time passes, your teeth will move into their proper position and your smile will become straighter and straighter. After 12 to 18 months, you\u2019ll have the straight smile you didn\u2019t think you\u2019d ever have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
