Invisible Braces in Bastrop, TX

A patient inserting invisible braces to her teeth in Bastrop,TXBraces used to be a rite of passage in adolescence. Even today, many people still envision a teenage mouth full of braces and wires navigating the halls of junior and high school. 

The reality is that the notion that braces are just for teenagers is outdated; it’s never too late to fix your smile. Modern orthodontics is appropriate for all ages—from children to mature adults. If you have minor dental issues that require orthodontics, invisible braces might be your solution for a quick, effective, and subtle dental treatment. 

Bastrop, TX, dentist Dr. Cole Smith is certified in invisible braces that can straighten and correct your teeth as an alternative to metal braces. Since invisible braces focus on remedying the visible part of your smile, this option can be less costly and quicker than the traditional route. Many adult patients like invisible braces for their cosmetic appearance—since their professional and social image never changes. 

According to the American Association of Orthodontists, more adults are seeking corrective orthodontic treatment than ever; in fact, one in every five patients who get braces is older than twenty-one. Invisible braces are a fast alternative to metal braces and are less conspicuous. 

Caring for Invisible Braces: What You Need to Know

Although invisible braces are discreet, proper care is essential. Here are some ways to keep them looking and feeling their best:

Brushing

Brush your clear aligners each day using a soft-bristled toothbrush and cool water. Toothpaste can scratch or discolor them, so it's best to use only water or antibacterial soap and water.

Rinsing

Every time you remove your aligners to eat, brush, or floss, you must rinse them with water before putting them back in your mouth.

Soaking

Soak your aligners in a denture cleanser or solution designed for invisible braces to remove bacteria and odors. You can also use unscented hand soap and warm water.

Our skilled Bastrop dentist can administer leading-edge orthodontic treatment to strengthen your oral health and enrich your quality of life. Invisible braces can straighten your teeth, both subtly and cosmetically without detracting from your daily life. There are many benefits to invisible braces, including:

  • Clear plastic aligners are unnoticeable and unobtrusive. Most people won’t know you’re straightening your teeth unless you tell them, so you never have to feel self-conscious
  • Unlike metal braces, you won’t have to feel apprehensive about scratching or irritating your cheeks and gums. The smooth composition of the aligners make them comfortable and never painful or scratchy
  • Invisible braces are removable so you can eat meals and maintain oral hygiene as usual, and you'll never have to wonder about food particles getting caught in wires or brackets
  • You can get results in a shorter time frame than metal braces
  • Invisible braces can fix minor bite functions, which could otherwise lead to oral health issues including gum infection, wear and tear of tooth enamel, cavities, and complications in eating or speaking
