What Is Invisalign Treatment?
Invisalign treatment consists of a series of custom-made teeth aligner trays that use subtle, targeted pressure to gradually shift the bite into proper alignment. Invisalign clear aligners boast a transparent appearance that isn't easily detected by the naked eye unless up close. Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign clear braces can be easily removed to brush your teeth or enjoy a meal. This allows you to retain your lifestyle and diet during the course of treatment.
Can Invisalign Clear Aligners Straighten My Teeth?
Invisalign clear braces are a popular treatment in modern orthodontics and cosmetic dentistry to effectively treat mild to moderate dental alignment issues. Our team will evaluate your bite to determine if you're a good candidate and if Invisalign treatment is the right choice for your goals and concerns. Invisalign clear aligners are an excellent solution for a variety of bite issues, such as:
- Crooked teeth
- Crowding
- Unwanted gaps between teeth
- Underbite
- Overbite
Our Treatment Process Tailored to You
The Invisalign treatment generally lasts 12-18 months and requires you to wear your plastic trays for at least 22 hours a day to achieve optimal results. Our practice will utilize x-rays to take detailed diagnostic images of your oral structure. These images will be analyzed and sent to an outside laboratory where a series of Invisalign trays will be custom-made to fit snugly and comfortably onto your teeth.
Once your aligners have been crafted and returned to our office, we will carefully secure your first tray, performing any necessary adjustments. Next, we will take time to clearly explain the process and provide any useful tips that could be helpful on your teeth straightening journey. Each clear tray is worn for two weeks before graduating to the next set in the series. Our dentist will invite you back for occasional visits so we can monitor your progress and answer any questions or concerns you may have.
Invisalign Clear Aligners FAQ
Our dentists and trusted staff are happy to answer your questions about any aspect of the Invisalign treatment process. Questions we frequently get asked regarding Invisalign clear aligners include:
What age range is Invisalign treatment recommended for?
Because the treatment duration is fairly lengthy and requires dedication to the process, as you are instructed to wear your clear aligners for most of the day, we recommend Invisalign clear aligners for adults and responsible teenagers.
What's the best way to clean my aligners?
When you're ready to clean your aligners, remove them and brush the plastic tray with lukewarm water. Make sure to brush your tray gently so you don't scratch the plastic. If your aligners have become stained, scratched, broken, or lost, contact our dental practice, and we will order replacement trays promptly.
What happens after the treatment process?
Although every case is different, we would recommend the use of a retainer to ensure your teeth don't gradually shift back out of alignment. Our dentists will discuss your retainer options and instruct you on the recommended timeframe you should wear the retainers after the initial treatment has ended.
