Why Get Your Invisalign from an Orthodontist Over a Cosmetic or General Dentist?
Benefits of Choosing an Orthodontist
- Specialty – Orthodontists are dentists that specifically specialize in straightening teeth and correcting bites. It is why your dentist will likely send you to an orthodontist for a consultation when recommending braces. Orthodontists like Dr. Rashidi have taken years studying the field, and thus are able to provide expert feedback not always possible with a general dentist.
- Recommendations – Invisalign is a great way to straighten your teeth. But it is not right for everyone. Your orthodontist can recommend alternative treatments that may be a better fit for your specific teeth, while a general dentist can usually only recommend Invisalign.
- Setbacks – If anything should go wrong with your treatment, an orthodontist will be able to identify and provide solutions for the problem. General dentists are more likely to refer you to an orthodontist if your Invisalign treatment is not working properly.
- Follow Up – In addition, once the Invisalign treatment is over, you may need additional support to keep your teeth in place, such as a retainer. Your orthodontist will be able to fit you with a retainer, and make sure that you are set to keep your smile for years to come.
