How Invisalign Works
Invisalign treatment is provided using a series of custom-made plastic aligners. These aligners are fabricated in a dental lab using Invisalign’s patented SmartTrack material, which is clear, flexible, soft, and comfortable. When you wear your aligners for 20-22 hours per day, they gently shift your teeth into the proper position according to your personalized treatment plan. When we determine it’s time, you will progress to the next set of aligners in your treatment plan. Your aligners can be removed when you eat, drink, play sports or exercise, brush and floss, or if you have your picture taken or attend a special event.
Benefits of Invisalign
Like other invisible braces, treatment with Invisalign is discreet and comfortable. It is very hard to tell that you are wearing your aligners, and many people find them much more comfortable than traditional metal or ceramic braces. Some other benefits of Invisalign treatment are:
- Greater flexibility and convenience of treatment, as aligners can be removed for one or two hours per day
- Easier to stay on top of oral hygiene and prevent issues like plaque and tartar buildup and tooth decay
- Don’t require you to restrict yourself from eating hard, crunchy, or sticky food since you remove your aligners to eat
- Are simple and easy to clean, so you’re less likely to experience bacteria buildup or bad breath
- Typically require fewer appointments than you would with traditional braces
- Are comfortable, and don’t have sharp edges that could hurt your gums or cheeks
- Can protect teeth and improve your oral health
- Correct issues that could affect your confidence and self-esteem
Who Is a Good Candidate for Invisalign?
We offer both Invisalign for adults and Invisalign for teens. After a personalized consultation, we can determine if you are a good candidate for treatment. In general, Invisalign might be right for you if:
- You are a teen or adult with all of your permanent teeth, and you have healthy gums and teeth
- Can commit to following your treatment plan
- Want an alternative to traditional braces
- Have mild to moderate orthodontic issues like overcrowding, gaps between teeth, or bite issues like an overbite, underbite, crossbite, or open bite
The Invisalign Treatment Process
Invisalign treatment is carefully customized to your unique orthodontic needs. We will make sure you understand what to expect from each phase of treatment:
- Invisalign Consultation – During your consultation, we will discuss your health history, oral health, lifestyle, diet, and concerns. We will do a comprehensive exam and take digital dental x-rays and impressions to determine if you are a good candidate.
- Treatment Plan – We will use Invisalign’s software to create your treatment plan, allowing you to see how your teeth will shift to your final result.
- Treatment – Your custom series of aligners will be fabricated in a dental laboratory, and you will wear each set for 20-22 hours per day for one or two weeks. We will then determine if you should progress to the next set.
- Post-Treatment Care – When treatment is complete, we will fit you for a dental retainer, which will maintain the results of your treatment.
