When we have to choose which orthodontics to give our children, the best thing to do is to be very cautious and find out about everything. The problem is that many times we end up surfing the internet and we end up finding confusing information. One of the most curious questions we have been asked is whether Invisalign can cause an allergic reaction.
What is Invisalign made of?
The first thing you need to understand is what Invisalign is made of. It is made of a thermoplastic material intended for medical use. It is not developed with any foreign, rare or magical material. The strength of the transparent aligners and their effectiveness lies in the professional who places them in your son or daughter's mouth, in the diagnosis, in the check-ups, etc. In other words, Invisalign will only give your son or daughter an allergic reaction if he or she is allergic to this material.which is very, very unlikely.
Plastic allergy is rare and easily detectable
Allergy to materials made of plastic is not common. Moreover, it usually shows itself through contact, and we spend our lives touching so much plastic that, if you were allergic, you would have already known it in your childhood, when you picked up a plastic bottle, etc. In any case, and in case you have any doubts, you can always do an allergy test.
If in any time with Invisalign If you notice any redness or discomfort, it may be due to food that has not been cleaned properly or another problem related to your dental health. In any case, at Dr. Consuelo Badía's orthodontic clinic in Valencia, we are always attentive to these types of incidents as soon as we see them, providing a response and a solution.
