South Beach, FL Orthodontist Busts Invisalign Myths
Miami and South Beach, FL Orthodontist Dr. Stephen Grussmark discusses several myths related to Invisalign and explains why they are untrue.
(EMAILWIRE.COM, December 22, 2010 ) BRICKELL, MIAMI AND SOUTH BEACH, FLORIDA- Our staff in the offices of Dr. Stephen Grussmark, a Coral Gables, Brickell, Miami and South Beach, FL orthodontist (http://www.centerforinvisiblebraces.com/), encounters plenty of myths related to Invisalign as new patients inquire about the invisible orthodontic treatment.
Today we are going to bust the four most common myths.
Myth 1- Only simple orthodontic cases can be treated with Invisalign.
Fact- On the contrary, most malocclusions can be treated with Invisalign- either exclusively, or sometimes with a combination of Invisalign and short-term traditional braces. In October 2010, Align Technology, Inc., the makers of Invisalign, introduced a series of new features that facilitate the treatment of Class II (overbite) and Class III (underbite) malocclusions. Grussmark, a Miami and South Beach, FL Invisalign provider who has offered the treatment since its inception in 1999, said even those patients requiring complex surgical intervention, are treated with Invisalign.
Myth 2- Invisalign treatment is not as stable as traditional braces.
Fact- Most people will experience movement- especially in the lower front teeth- as they age, whether they’ve had orthodontic treatment or not, and whether they have wisdom teeth or not. Therefore, regardless of what type of treatment, whether it be braces or Invisalign, retainers are essential to hold the teeth in place. There is no scientific evidence of any difference in stability between an Invisalign- or braces-treated orthodontic case.
Myth 3- Invisalign treatment takes longer than other types of orthodontic treatment.
Fact- Actually, the opposite is true. Invisalign treatment usually can be completed in a shorter period than treatment with traditional braces. Average treatment time with Invisalign is approximately one year. With conventional orthodontic treatment, the forces are exerted through the wire.
As a consequence, teeth may move that aren’t designated to move, just because they are in the site where movement is desired. As Grussmark pointed out, “for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.” However, with Invisalign, since there is no wire involved, the aligner allows movement of only the teeth prescribed.
Myth 4- Invisalign treatment is more expensive than traditional orthodontic treatment.
Fact- Since being introduced more than 10 years ago, our Miami and South Beach, FL orthodontics offices have seen the cost of Invisalign treatment decrease by about one third. Today, the cost for Invisalign treatment is truly comparable to that of traditional braces. Our office also has desirable financing arrangements in-office and through third party providers, sometimes involving interest-free arrangements.
