I've been doing some reading on braces and I found out that TV star Katherine Heigl keeps her teeth looking nice by wearing Invisalign clear invisible braces. The kind of braces she uses are designed to straighten your teeth with trays that can be taken out and replaced. These trays are more comfortable because they don't hurt. They are not like braces, which can give you some discomfort, and it is not like you have to wear the trays at all times.

The reports indicate that she is happy with them and said she got them because of one tooth that was giving her grief. She loves how it has changed her appearance and says it is the easiest thing in the world to use. Which it is.

If you ever have the time, try out my Westland dental office. I do a lot of Invisalign orthodontics without braces. You will honestly feel that they are invisible. You can remove them. It is pretty much clear that someone like Katherine Heigl, a famous star, who must mind her appearance, loves these.

After a while, when your teeth steadily start returning to where they are supposed to be, you keep switching to a new tray. You will feel no pain or discomfort and it is a fast-working process that fixes your teeth quickly.

I wouldn't recommend every single one of you go for Invisalign. But almost all of the people who want to try it will be able to gain from using this system.

Ms. Heigl is a great ambassador for dentists. But I am a bit miffed by why she thinks there may be a relationship between Netflix and your teeth, but so what. The important factor with Ms. Heigl is that I'm pleased Invisalign is getting great publicity because it is great for many folks who much prefer what they have now. They certainly don't want to have a bad bite and an unsightly smile.
