Misaligned or crooked teeth can cause embarrassment to many people. Nevertheless, the appearance of braces may deter patients from rectifying the issue. We offer Invisalign as an alternative solution that gives you straight, more aesthetically attractive teeth.
Invisalign is a series of custom-made, transparent aligners designed to fit snugly over the teeth. The aligners gradually move the teeth into your desired position.
Here is what to expect during the treatment:
- The treatment journey starts with a consultation where our qualified dentists will discuss your oral health goals, answer your questions, and determine whether you are eligible for Invisalign. If you qualify, we will take digital impressions using a 3D scanner. The 3D imaging technology allows us to create customized, invisible, comfortable, removable, and effective aligners.
- We will send the images to our dental lab, where our technician will create your customized aligners.
- Once the aligners are ready, you should return to our office to try on your initial set.
- You should also return to our office every six weeks for dental checkups. The checkups permit the dentist to track the progress and make relevant adjustments.
- While treatment duration varies, many people complete treatment in twelve to eighteen months. After aligning your teeth, we will give you retainers to maintain your new smile.
