Invisalign spends millions of dollars on marketing to show why straight teeth are attractive. Yet straight teeth are more beneficial than just vanity.

There are multiple reasons to get Invisalign other than just to have a beautifully straight smile that people envy.

Near-invisibility and convenience aside, here are my top reasons to get Invisalign.

DRY SOCKET

A dry socket is a process that happens when a blood clot falls away from the extraction site. Blood clots can fall out of any extraction site but primarily due to wisdom teeth removal.

If a blood clot falls out, it will typically happen within the first one to four days. If you have gone longer than four days, you will typically not get a dry socket.

Dry sockets can be cured at home, but if the pain is too severe, you may need to come into Thrive Dental in Frisco to alleviate your discomfort.
