This summer is an unusual time. Instead of going on vacation, many people are instead staying put to protect themselves from COVID-19. However, that time at home doesn’t need to be unproductive. Instead, it can be used to improve your smile using clear aligners. Keep reading to learn why now is the perfect time to start Invisalign at Inwood Village Dental.
1. Hardly Anyone Will Notice
One of the benefits of Invisalign treatment is that the clear trays used to move teeth are barely visible to others while they are worn. However, while social distancing is being practiced, it will be even harder for people to see them. Adults working from home won’t need to worry about a pesky coworker pointing out their trays. Teens home from school can wear their aligners without their peers making comments. It’s the perfect time to get teeth fixed without anyone noticing.
2. An Easier Adjustment Period
Unlike traditional metal braces, Invisalign clear aligners are easy to use. However, a patient still needs to get into the habit of wearing their trays and getting comfortable with how they feel in their mouth. They will also need to make time for periodic checkup visits with their dentist so that they can make sure everything is moving according to plan. During this summer of staycations, it will be much easier to dedicate time to learning to live with your Invisalign trays and going to a couple appointments since you’re always in town.
3. Surprising Your Friends This Fall
The whole point of Invisalign treatment is to give patients the great smile they deserve. Even if you don’t quite finish your treatment by the end of summer, you’ll still be able to show off a much-improved smile when you return to work or school this fall. It’s a fantastic way to make a great impression.
4. Orthodontic Treatment Is Safe Now
COVID-19 is still a major concern this summer. As a result, your dental practice has implemented new safety policies to ensure that all patients are protected from the virus when they come in for care. Some of these new policies include:
- Screening patients for symptoms before they enter the building
- Limiting the number of patients in the office
- Requiring all patients to use hand sanitizer before entering treatment areas
While this summer is full of unique challenges, a less than perfect smile shouldn’t be one of them. The next few months are the perfect time to start the process of improving your appearance through Invisalign. At the end of treatment, you’ll be able to smile confidently to everyone you meet.
