Invisalign in Miami-Dade
Nowadays more and more people in Miami-Dade are driving down to Lakes Orthodontics, although Invisalign providers in Miami-Dade are as common barbershops. That is because families who want the best know what expert orthodontist Dr. Carmen Briceño Crespi can provide. People, for years, predictably thought about a mouth full of metal, wires and rubber bands when the term “orthodontics” was mentioned. Reasonably, these are all actual preventions from patients visiting the orthodontist’s office. Now with the introductions of Invisalign, individuals are welcoming to the concept of this alternative to the traditional idea of orthodontics. We can debate over some of the benefits of Invisalign in Miami-Dade.
Clear braces ot Invisalign is a fairly comfortable, esthetically pleasant looking oral plastic device that helps to realign teeth that has been misaligned. You can be considered for Invisalign from the age of 12. It has been reported by the American Association for Dental Research that Invisalign plastic devices are more expensive overall than traditional braces, but the patient needs less visits and the treatment period is shorter. Invisalign aligners are nearly unnoticeable, so people can’t always detect that you are having orthodontic treatment in Miami-Dade. Oral care is improved because you need to remove the device before you eat and you need to brush and floss thoroughly before replacing the device. Some patient even lose weight as they snack less during the process of orthodontic care. One other plus to Invisalign, is that you don’t get as sore inside your cheeks and lips as is known to happen with traditional braces.

Pros and Cons with Invisalign
Miami Invisalign Orthodontist Dr. Carmen Crespi explains the pros and cons of Invisalign. If you follow us, you have probably heard us discuss or possibly even blog about Invisalign treatment being overused or used for the wrong reasons. The problem is that Invisalign has become so popular that many unqualified dental professionals are simply telling patients that they are candidates for Invisalign, which is simply not the case. Many patients are being misdiagnosed and prescribed Invisalign treatment when they are not truly candidates in the first place. You have to remember that Invisalign is not a one size fits all treatment, which is a very common misconception by the general public. Invisalign is a treatment option that dental professionals can prescribe to their patients to help solve orthodontic issues such as misaligned teeth or some jaw or joint disorders. However, it is not a cure-all for everyone.
The most important consideration for a patient seeking orthodontic treatment/Invisalign treatment should be: Is the dental professional who is giving me a consultation qualified to diagnose my treatment and give me the proper prescription and treatment plan?
Invisalign is a treatment option that requires proper diagnoses and treatment planning to achieve successful results. Do not misconstrue this as a criticism of Invisalign as a treatment option, as we have achieved wonderful results for our patients that are true candidates for the Invisalign product line and under the diagnoses and care of an orthodontic professional.
In many people’s minds, when discussing orthodontic services and/or braces, the first thing that pops into their heads is Invisalign. This is because Invisalign is a true pioneer in the orthodontic industry with their patented clear braces solution.
At our Miami Lakes office, we prescribe quite a bit of Invisalign’s products, which is why we have been awarded as an Invisalign Preferred Provider. Unlike many other practices, Dr. Carmen Briceño Crespi is a board-certified Miami Orthodontics specialist, which makes her the most educated and qualified doctor to diagnose, plan and treat your Invisalign case. We proudly offer the complete Invisalign product line from Invisalign complete to Invisalign Teen and even Invisalign Express, a short-term expedited clear braces solution.
As mentioned earlier, Invisalign is often a fantastic solution for many of our patients. However, there are many instances where Invisalign is not the right solution for your orthodontic needs. Some of the most common issues that generally should not be treated with Invisalign are severe crowding, skeletal discrepancies, impacted teeth, and/or bite issues.
- Severe crowding: a significant lack of space that may require extractions.
- Skeletal Discrepancies: significant growth or lack of growth of one or both jaws.
- Impacted teeth: teeth that are embedded in the bone and are not able to erupt naturally.
- Bite issues: underbites, overbites, and open bites are often very difficult to treat with a removable aligner.
