Since the aligners are clear, comfortable, and convenient, it\u2019s not hard to see why either.

Keep reading for the answer \u2013 it might surprise you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">So, Are You Too Old for Invisalign?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Patients in their 30s, 40s, 50s, and 60s often assume that they are too old for Invisalign. Since clear aligner treatment is very popular among patients in their late teens and early 20s, it\u2019s not hard to see why! The reality is that candidacy for this teeth-straightening service is determined by factors like the complexity of your case and the state of your oral health, <em>not<\/em> your age. So, if you want to straighten your teeth and align your bite without the metal, don\u2019t let your age stop you from scheduling a consultation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Adults Often Have More Success with Braces<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Not only are many adults candidates for Invisalign, but they often do better. Why? To start, they are investing their own money, so they are usually very committed to the treatment guidelines provided, like wearing the aligners for 20+ hours a day. They also are typically more responsible, which is crucial since the trays are removable and, therefore, can easily get lost or damaged. Finally, adults understand that braces can positively impact the look, health, and function of their smile, keeping them motivated to stay on-track with their treatment plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5 Noteworthy Benefits of Invisalign<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In short, there is a reason more than 17 million patients have chosen to straighten their teeth with Invisalign. Here are a few noteworthy benefits:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The aligners are see-through, making them basically invisible<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The average treatment timeline is only 12-18 months<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>There are fewer check-in visits<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>There aren\u2019t any dietary restrictions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The trays are comfortable because there aren\u2019t any metal components<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our team at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.superbracesworcester.com\/\">Super Braces of Worcester<\/a> is proud to serve patients of all ages.
