Invisible Aligners vs. Traditional Braces: Revolutionizing the Modern Smile

January 13, 2024

The decision process about a pleasingly aligned smile is complex when weighing one’s options between clear aligner braces and the traditional metal braces. Tovalign provides the latest invisible aligners that transform notions of orthodontic alignment. This blog shall discuss the fundamental differences that prevail between invisible aligners and Traditional braces and also the benefits that Tovalign’s invisible aligners have, discussing why it should serve as the better orthodontic treatment choice of today.

What Are Invisible Aligners?

Invisible aligners are pre-made, transparent trays that are created to gradually and slowly move teeth over time. Instead of the wired and bracketed metal braces, invisible aligners are made of a smooth, which is BPA-free material that is closely similar in structural features to the dental framework. They are easy to remove when meals or oral hygiene activities require their removal; hence, they are convenient for most people. Invisible aligners of Tovalign are manufactured through advanced 3D digital scanning technology. Thus, the treatment is effective and comfortable as it is molded according to the individual dental needs.

Traditional Braces: A Brief Overview

Traditional orthodontic appliances are simply known as metal braces. They consist of metallic brackets that are attached to every tooth and then linked by a metallic wire. The wires are adjusted periodically to continue driving the teeth to the desired position. Traditional braces have been around for many generations and work very well in most cases; however, there are many disadvantages that most patients do not like.

Tovalign Advantage: Invisible Aligners vs. Traditional Braces

This section explains the basic differences between invisible aligners like Tovalign and metal braces, thus understanding why people are increasingly opting for invisible aligners.

1. Aesthetic Appeal

Perhaps the most significant benefit that invisible aligners can provide is aesthetic beauty. Tovalign’s aligners are nearly invisible when worn, thus becoming one of the best options for people who are afraid of the visual impact metal braces would have on their body. Traditional braces are really noticeable and often discomforts both teenagers and adults to have to wear them for longer periods.

2. Affordability and Accessibility

Invisible retainers like Tovalign are made of smooth plastic, with no sharp edges or wires that may rub or cause irritation within the oral cavity. As such, invisible aligners are much more comfortable than traditional braces, which provoke painful ulcers from metal brackets and wires. This will also be conveniently removed at any time of a user’s choosing. Examples of removal can be at times of eating and personal hygiene practice.

3. Reduced treatment time

Generally, the treatment time to accomplish with invisible aligners takes between 12 to 18 months. This is according to the complexity of the case. For conventional braces, this usually takes 18 to 24 months. It can be longer than that. For those patients who want results to be faster, invisible aligners are more efficient and quicker in their treatment time schedule.

4. Oral Hygiene

There are several problems in ensuring good oral hygiene during orthodontic treatment with conventional fixed braces due to the interference caused by the metal brackets and wires. Food usually gets caught between the braces causing plaque and a greater possibility of developing other complications like caries and periodontal diseases. The advantage of Tovalign invisible aligners is that they are removable; this would allow constant brushing and flossing of the teeth without any obstruction.

5. Consequences on Facial Shape

Apart from proper alignment of the teeth, Tovalign invisible aligners can also have a positive effect on facial structure. In that way, the invisible aligners can help in proper alignment of the teeth, which consequently helps in improving the facial symmetry and provides a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing look. The traditional braces do not have such an effect on facial structure as they are only focused on the alignment of the teeth and do not consider comprehensive alignment of the jaw.

The growing acceptance of invisible aligners in India

In India, the adoption of invisible aligners has been gradually gaining pace. Recent statistics show that even more than 30% of orthodontic patients in India now opt for clear aligners in place of conventional braces, and this trend is growing primarily due to the increasingly popular awareness about the benefits in terms of aesthetics, convenience, and comfort of invisible aligners. On top of that, a survey established that 78% of patients undergoing treatment with clear aligners like Tovalign experience a measurable impact of the aesthetic result on their face’s alignment and overall asymmetry.
