Building Confidence: How Invisalign Can Impact Self-Esteem
&srotate=0)
Not only is Invisalign an effective treatment for straighter teeth, but these clear aligners can also have a huge impact on the self-esteem of the wearer. Undergoing orthodontic treatment isn't always fun, especially when it comes to drawing unwanted attention to your teeth with traditional metal braces. Invisalign is a discreet option for those looking to ameliorate the psychological and emotional impact of orthodontic treatment.
The Emotional Toll of Orthodontic Treatment
Not only can traditional metal braces be uncomfortable and inconvenient for the wearer, but they often draw more attention than what the patient would like. Anxiety and self-consciousness are common emotional reactions associated with braces, for both teens and adults.
The emotional journey through orthodontic treatment varies by patient. Once the teeth begin to gradually align, many patients find that any negative emotions give way to positive feelings of increased self-confidence.
If you're feeling apprehensive about treatment, you're not alone. The discomfort sometimes brought on by traditional metal braces and wires is also a concern for many, which is why SmilesNY is happy to offer modern alternatives that are more comfortable and virtually invisible.
How Does Invisalign Boost Self-Confidence?
Invisalign clear aligners have been designed for easy removal for eating, drinking, and brushing your teeth. This provides the patient with a greater sense of control over their treatment, which can be one of the biggest advantages of opting for clear aligners over traditional braces that are affixed to the teeth.
Throughout the treatment journey, Invisalign patients are more likely to find themselves smiling and laughing in social situations without worry. Due to the discreet nature of the trays, they'll be virtually invisible in photos — so snap away and enjoy making memories!
With Invisalign, patients will be able to keep tabs on the progress their teeth are making. Each new tray shows you gradual shifts in real-time, which can help boost confidence in the process and encourage patients to stick with their oral health routines.
Once Invisalign treatment is complete, you'll be rewarded with a straighter smile. This has been shown to lead to a more confident demeanor in many individuals, which can boost self-esteem for years to come.
