So Are Invisalign Braces Really Invisible?

In a word...yes.

As I've said before, this was not a huge concern for me when choosing braces. In fact I was all prepared to have traditional braces put on. The orthodontist recommended Invisalign because of the level of accuracy that Invisalign offers. But they certainly do also offer a much lower-profile option when it comes to teeth straightening.

So far, I don't think that anyone has noticed my braces yet. On the contrary, when I point them out to people, they still can't see them and don't understand what I'm talking about. To me, they look fairly obvious, but apparently to others they really are invisible.

Now, I do have rubber bands that connect my back top teeth to my lower front teeth to try to correct my underbite. Those you can see if I have my mouth wide open, like if I'm yawning or laughing. But again, I don't think that anyone has noticed them either, unless I point them out.

Keep in mind, my job entails me giving presentations to clients that are sitting directly across the desk from me. They are literally less than three feet away, and I have yet to have anyone that seems to notice.

Or maybe they're just being polite.
