For most women, (and a few men too!) you want to look your very best on your wedding day. Many brides begin working out, watching what they eat, and meticulously planning every little detail of the big day. Looking through example photos from photographers can quickly make you realize you’d also like to have a bright and straight smile for all of those close-up photos.

Luckily, if you are like most people, you have started making wedding plans months before the actual big day. Here’s why more engaged men and women are choosing Invisalign treatments before they walk down the aisle.

Wedding Photos Are Forever

Are you already thinking about how you’re going to look in the thousands of wedding photos that will be taken? Or perhaps you have just received your engagement photos back, and every picture of your teeth leaves you cringing and obsessing over every crooked detail? Your smile is a constant and essential accessory not only on your wedding day but every day. You will be looking back at your wedding photos for years to come, and sharing them with everyone you know. The last thing you want people focusing on is your teeth.

You Have Time For Invisalign

With Invisalign, you will have a great deal of responsibility of helping to straighten your teeth on your own time. Whether your wedding is in six weeks or several months, Invisalign begins working immediately and will help you to transform your smile into better shape than it is in right now. Even if your treatment is not complete by the time you walk down the aisle, your smile will still look much better than before you began treatment.

Invisalign is Discreet

Although Invisalign must be worn for 20-22 hours a day to be as effective as possible, it won’t get in the way of wedding planning or other wedding events. Aligners won’t show up in photos and can be easily removed for a brief period to get you through things like engagement photos or cake tastings. No one will even notice that you’re wearing aligners, which leaves you to be completely confident in every social situation.

Convenience

Your aligners are completely removable, which makes them highly convenient. Whether enjoying dinner with friends and family, celebrating your engagement at your bridal shower or when you’re smiling for your engagement photos, Invisalign will be undetectable to everyone.

Keeping Teeth Healthy During Treatment

An excellent oral hygiene routine is always vital, but metal braces can make brushing and flossing a challenge. Invisalign aligners are removable, so taking care of your teeth and gums is no different than before you began treatment. Having your teeth aligned can also help prevent other dental issues that stem from overcrowding too, improving your overall health.

No Dietary Restrictions

Straightening your teeth comes with a long list of dietary restrictions, right? Wrong! Invisalign is designed to be removed each time you eat or drink which means that you will not have to give up any of your favorite foods. However, it is recommended that you always brush your teeth and aligners before re-inserting them to keep your teeth healthy and cavity-free.

Comfort

Invisalign aligners are made of a lightweight plastic that is custom-fitted to your teeth, providing a comfortable fit even while wearing them. Unlike traditional metal braces, there are no wires or uncomfortable metal brackets that can easily irritate your mouth, gums or cheeks.

A New Life Partner and a New Smile

Brides and grooms know they’re not just planning for the day, but planning for a new future together. Your Invisalign treatment focuses on the present and future too. With a straighter smile, you will not only have a gorgeous smile on your wedding day but for the rest of your lifetime.
