Invisalign clear aligners are a popular orthodontic treatment option for those looking to straighten their teeth without the hassle of traditional metal braces. But can Invisalign weaken tooth roots? The answer is yes, but the risk is low if proper care is taken. In rare cases, the cellular response between the tissues surrounding the roots and the trays can hinder the ends of the roots. This is why it's important to visit your dentist every six months for routine checkups and cleanings.
Additionally, Invisalign uses less torque than wire braces, which means less root resorption and better long-term health for your teeth. However, if you need to rotate your canines or premolars, or if your teeth need to move vertically, Invisalign may not give you ideal results. That's why it's important to consult with an Invisalign Diamond Plus provider who has performed thousands of successful treatments. Invisalign clear aligners are designed to apply gentle force to the teeth and slowly but surely move them to their correct positions.
With Invisalign, patients have the freedom to remove their aligners any time they want to eat, drink, brush their teeth, or floss. For more complex cases, treatment with Invisalign may take longer than that of someone with simpler dental movements. If you don't fully understand the condition of your right incisor and how Invisalign will affect your tooth, ask your dentist to explain it in more detail. Taking care of your aligners and making oral hygiene a top priority can help prevent root damage from occurring.
