Invisalign Summit

A few months ago, we attended the Invisalign Summit held in Las Vegas.  This was our first Invisalign Summit.  The meeting had the best of the best Invisalign offices presenting their pearls of wisdom.  There were over 3000 attendees.  We were told the meeting was sold out in 34 minutes.  Our long- term relationship with Invisalign allowed us to attend.  It was a fantastic meeting.  We are more than ever excited about the potential of clear aligner therapy.  There are very few cases that cannot be treated successfully routinely with Invisalign. 
In January, Invisalign introduced a new aligner material called Smart Track.  The material gives greater elastic properties.  This reduces the fatigue of the aligner, therefore, making tooth movements faster and more predictable.  We saw some fantastic results achieved with clear aligner wear.  I predict in the next ten years there will be as many cases treated with Invisalign as with traditional braces.  I know in our office we have seen an influx of new patients that not only desire a great smile but they want to do it with Invisalign.  Think about the difference with Invisalign and traditional braces…with clear aligners- you can eat anything you want, brushing is a snap because you take out the aligners, treatment is often faster and there are no “pokey” emergencies that can happen with traditional braces.  Many feel the cost with Invisalign is much greater but in our office the costs are the same.  If you have been thinking about improving your smile but you do not want traditional braces now is the time.  Invisalign is for you.  Remember our initial examinations are complimentary.  Keep Smiling
