Phoenix Orthodontist Discusses the Potential Health Benefits of Invisalign®

Dr. Chris Murphy of Murphy Orthodontics highlights multiple health advantages possible with the popular orthodontic treatment, Invisalign®.

PHOENIX, AZ, UNITED STATES, December 12, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- One of the most well-known benefits of Invisalign® treatment is cosmetic enhancement. The removable clear aligners gradually correct misaligned teeth, close gaps or spacing issues, alleviate crowding, and adjust bite irregularities. For many Invisalign® patients, treatment results can help boost their self-confidence and satisfaction with the appearance of their smile.

Board-certified Phoenix orthodontist Chris Murphy, DDS emphasizes that Invisalign® can offer more than just aesthetic advantages. This orthodontic treatment promotes numerous health benefits, including:

• Enhanced Oral Hygiene – Unlike traditional braces with brackets and wires, Invisalign® aligners are removable. This allows patients to more easily maintain their oral hygiene routine of brushing and flossing, helping to reduce the risk of plaque buildup, tooth decay, and gum disease.
• Relief from Jaw Pain – Orthodontic issues can contribute to temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder, a condition that affects the jaw joints and surrounding muscles. Dr. Murphy notes that Invisalign® can help relieve symptoms by aligning the teeth, as well as the upper and/or lower dental arches, and minimizing stress on the jaw joints.
• Improved Gum Health – Teeth crowding can increase the likelihood of gum swelling and irritation. Invisalign® is designed to gently shift teeth into a better position without irritating the gums, thus promoting healthier gums.
• Reduced Risk of Dental Injury and Tooth Wear – Teeth that are crooked, crowded, or exhibit bite irregularities can lead to abnormal stress on teeth and the jaw, often resulting in excessive wear of the tooth enamel. Also, teeth that stick out more have a higher chance of being unintentionally knocked into and fractured. By correcting the alignment, Invisalign® can help distribute bite forces more evenly, protecting teeth from excessive wear and tear and/or trauma.
• Improved Speech, Chewing, and Sleep – In some cases, misaligned teeth can affect speech and chewing. By enhancing the alignment of the teeth, Invisalign® can help improve clarity of speech and chewing capabilities. Additionally, straighter teeth and better alignment may lessen the urge to grind teeth, which can have an added benefit of improved sleep.

Dr. Murphy explains that individuals with mild to moderate orthodontic concerns can benefit from both the health and cosmetic enhancements Invisalign® treatment has to offer. He advises those who are interested in Invisalign® to consult with an experienced orthodontist on potential treatment.
