What New Research Says About Small Gaps
Recent studies have shown that Invisalign is able to close small gaps faster because the aligners apply gentle and direct pressure exactly where needed; this makes the movement more controlled compared to braces.
Why Invisalign Works Faster for Small Gaps
Here are the main reasons why:
- Clear aligners target single-tooth movement more precisely.
- Furthermore, they apply pressure in the right direction without affecting other teeth.
- The trays are changed every 1–2 weeks, which accelerates progress.
- There is less discomfort, so patients wear them consistently.
- They work well for people who have mild spacing issues.
Benefits of Invisalign over Braces for Spacing Issues
- Invisalign is clear and almost invisible.
- Easy to remove while eating.
- No metal wires or brackets.
- Very comfortable to wear daily.
- Also, it works great for mild and moderate teeth-straightening cases.
What about dental implants?
Some patients with missing teeth consider dental implants before the treatment of gaps. If you are planning dental implants, closure of your natural small gaps can create better alignment and can thus facilitate easy implant placement.
Is Invisalign right for your gap?
Invisalign is best for:
- Mild to moderate spacing
- Small gaps between front teeth
- People who desire quicker cosmetic results
- Anyone seeking a clear alternative to Braces
If your gap is too big or caused by bone issues, braces or other options might still be required.
