There are many reasons why someone with crooked teeth has done nothing about it. There are thirty, forty, and even fifty year old people, walking around with a set of teeth they are flat out embarrassed about. So why aren't these people taking action, and having them straightened? The truth is many of them have allowed themselves to believe, "it's okay."

The reality is that it's not okay. People tend to look at your mouth when you speak, and what they see is either going to have interested in what you have to say, or have them so transfixed by what's going on in your mouth that they barely hear what it is you did say.

Braces have always been considered expensive, but those in the orthodontic field know that the question to ask in that regard is always, "expensive as compared to what?" If a child needs braces, are you, the parent, going to refuse to get them for the kid becasue you want to save a few bucks, while the kid has to grow up dealing with emotional, and psychological issues due to having a mouth of crooked teeth? This is what has happened to may people over the last fifty years, but the reality is it never had to.

When people take a step back, and look at what it is they put their purchasing power towards, they, themselves, would be embarrassed by how much of it they spend on things that don't bring back a solid return on their investment. Those who did make the investment hated the fact that they were walking around, day and night, with railroad tracks strapped to their teeth. No matter how many colors brackets have today, or how many cutesy ways the orthodontist tries to set up your braces, the facts are that metal braces just look really bad.

And here's why Invisalign has kicked metal braces in the teeth (pun intended) since they were first introduced - Invisalign trays are created with a plastic that makes them virtually unnoticeable. Patients can have their teeth straightened in front of their friends, for months, and their closest friends may never even know the change was taking place. Can you see why Invisalign has such a huge following?

Here's another huge benefit - they are removable. This is the hammer in the coffin for metal braces. Why settle for braces you have to live with 24/7, when you can wear a device that is going to give you the same results; but are able to be taken off whenever you want to eat, or brush your teeth?
