Vancouver BC – “When I recommend Invisalign, patients often inquire how it’s different from traditional braces,” observes Dr. Aly Kanani, a Vancouver orthodontics specialist. “I explain that the Invisalign system is simply another method for moving teeth into the correct position, but they’re shifted by clear plastic aligners instead of metal braces.” Sometimes traditional braces may be a better option than Invisalign, but in plenty of situations Invisalign is the superior choice. Your orthodontist can recommend the best selection for you.
“However, many patients, and some providers, think that the Invisalign system is best for fixing only minor dental problems, while conventional braces are the better option for more complex situations,” explains Dr. Kanani, a Vancouver braces expert. But, an experienced Invisalign specialist can fix severe crowding, spacing, or rotation problems – as well as class 2 and 3 malocclusions, open bites, situations requiring extraction, and even use it in conjunction with jaw surgery.

Surrey Orthodontics Office Celebrates One-Year Anniversary
Vancouver, BC – With offices in Langley and Surrey Invisible Orthodontics is celebrating the one-year anniversary of the practice’s Vancouver office. “The Vancouver office has been a big success,” says Dr. Aly Kanani, a Surrey invisalign provider. “Many patients find the location to be very convenient and it has really helped to expand the practice.”
The practice of Vancouver Orthodontics, located in the Vancouver Multi-Dental Care Clinic, provides braces and invisible braces, but focuses on Invisalign braces. The practice’s doctors have treated several hundred Invisalign patients. As a result, the practice is growing extremely quickly with referrals from the dental community and word of mouth from existing patients.
Nearly invisible, Invisalign consists of a series of custom-made aligners which gradually move the patient’s teeth into the desired alignment. Without wires or brackets, the Invisalign system is more comfortable and less noticeable than traditional braces. The aligners are removable, so patients can eat, drink, and brush their teeth more easily than with conventional braces. Dr. Kanani, a Vancouver Invisalign specialist, reveals: “The Invisalign system has a 96% client satisfaction rate.”

Vancouver Braces Expert Suggests Dental Hygiene as Ideal new Year's Resolution
VANCOUVER, BC — The big ball drops. A new year begins. For millions of people, this moment is a time of reflection and optimism for better days. This hopefulness more often than not embodies itself as the New Year's Resolution. But, as we all know New Year's Resolutions are often hard to keep. People often make commitments beyond their capabilities or ambition, and the New Year’s Resolution becomes a source of failure rather than renewed confidence.
Dr. Aly Kanani, a Vancouver braces expert likes to remind his patients and friends that one of the easiest and most beneficial New Year’s Resolutions is right under their noses, literally.
By making just a couple of easy changes to your daily routine and giving yourself just a few friendly reminders each day, dental hygiene will not only provide major health benefits, it will be a positive step towards a better you and an admirable New Year’s Resolution achieved.
Hygiene At Home
Some simple commitments at home can pay big dividends in oral health. According to the Canadian Dental Association (CDA), making sure to brush after meals and at least two times a day plays a big part in removing food and bacteria from the teeth and gum line. If plaque is left unaccounted for, it can turn into a hardened substance (tartar), and cavities can form, which leads to tooth decay and even tooth loss.
Flossing regularly is just as important to oral hygiene as brushing your teeth. Often, food gets trapped where a broad toothbrush can’t reach. Combined, flossing and brushing greatly increases the overall cleanliness of teeth and gums.
“For some reason most people think that brushing is enough to keep cavities away,” says Dr. Kanani. “But, to promote a healthy mouth, people need to invest in brushing, flossing, and rinsing. I guarantee that if you do all these things, you will feel a difference in the way your teeth feel.”
Mouthwash and rinses can vary drastically in their effectiveness. With antimicrobial rinses and cosmetic rinses producing different effects on the mouth, individuals should consult with their dentist about the right choice and frequency of use notes Dr. Kanani.
Another helpful at-home hygiene tip is to examine your mouth on a routine basis. Recognizing any new problems can prevent bigger problems before they erupt.
Work/School Hygiene
We spend at least one-third of our daily lives at school or at work. This is a significant amount of time, so it is important to dedicate some of your time away from home maintaining good dental habits.
After lunch, a quick floss and/or brushing can go a long way. “Cleaning your teeth at work or school is incredibily important, but many people leave dental hygiene to the comfort of their own bathrooms,” says Surrey orthodontist Dr. Kanani. “Unfortunately, without cleaning after those cafeteria lunches or company lunches, food and plaque will be festering in your mouth all day long."
People undergoing orthodontic treatment should especially focus on brushing and/or flossing after every meal adds Dr. Kanani, a Vancouver, BC orthodontics practitioner. Using either a toothbrush or special orthodontic flosser, those with braces or Invisalign should maintain their orthodontic equipment diligently.
“One of the worst things an adult or child can do is neglect their orthodontics,” says Dr. Kanani, a Vancouver Invisalign specialist. “Foreign objects in the mouth like braces and Invisalign trays can become a hotbed for bacteria. Orthodontics are meant to enhance a patient’s smile, but without good habits the patient will most likely have other dental problems besides teeth misalignments.”
Those with braces should practice brushing above, below, and around their braces and wires as much as possible, especially after meals. Rinses also help loosen any food particles adds Dr. Kanani, a Langley braces specialist. Invisalign patients should clean their Invisalign trays by brushing them before putting them on and soaking them in a special cleaner or mouthwash frequently.
Keep Dental Appointments
Perhaps the hardest habit to keep is routinely visiting the dentist. Though many people don’t like visiting the dentist, it is highly important to prevent any serious dental problems before they arise.
“Many people think that if they have great dental habits that they don’t need to visit their dentist,” says Langley orthodontics practitioner Dr. Kanani, who was a general dentist before becoming a Certified Specialist in Vancouver, BC orthodontics. “Unfortunately, our teeth and gums can degrade with time. Through the bloodstream, teeth and gums can become infected regardless of brushing and flossing habits. But, dental checkups don’t take much time, are generally painless, and can prevent serious complications.”
Common knowledge suggests that people should have a dental appointment every six months, however, this number can vary depending on several factors adds Dr. Kanani. Depending on oral health, genetics, and habits, a dentist may suggest appointments anywhere from six times per year to two per year.
