How does Invisalign work?
Invisalign uses a series of custom-made, clear plastic aligners to gradually straighten teeth. These aligners are designed based on digital impressions of the patient’s teeth, ensuring a precise fit. Each aligner gently moves the teeth closer to their ideal position, with patients typically switching to a new set every one to two weeks. Patients wear them for 20-22 hours daily, removing them only for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing. We also schedule periodic appointments to assess progress and provide the next set of clear aligners.
What are the benefits of Invisalign?
Invisalign offers several benefits, including almost invisible aligners, making it a discreet option for straightening teeth. Invisalign aligners are also completely removable, which allows patients to eat their favorite foods and maintain good oral hygiene without restrictions. They’re also comfortable, with no metal brackets or wires to cause irritation.
Invisalign treatment typically requires fewer dental visits for adjustments compared to traditional braces, providing additional convenience for patients. Additionally, the advanced 3D technology provides a clear visualization of the treatment plan and expected results.
Is Invisalign suitable for everyone?
Invisalign is effective for many orthodontic issues, such as crowding, gaps, overbites, and underbites. However, it may not be suitable for severe orthodontic cases requiring significant jaw realignment or complex tooth movements. Children and those who struggle with wearing aligners consistently may not be ideal candidates either. A consultation with our team is always conducted to evaluate individual needs and determine whether Invisalign is the right choice for the patient.
