Benefits of Invisalign

Invisalign offers several advantages over traditional braces, making it a popular choice for patients of all ages. Some of the biggest benefits include:

  • Virtually invisible aligners that blend in with your smile.
  • Removable trays so you can eat your favorite foods without restrictions.
  • Comfortable, smooth plastic that won’t irritate your cheeks or gums like metal brackets can.
  • Easier oral hygiene since you can brush and floss normally.
  • Fewer office visits compared to traditional braces, making treatment convenient for busy schedules.

The Invisalign Process

Your Invisalign journey begins with a consultation to determine whether clear aligners are right for you. During your visit, we’ll evaluate your smile, discuss your goals, and create a personalized treatment plan. Using advanced digital technology, we’ll map out the movement of your teeth and design a series of custom aligners. You’ll wear each set for about one to two weeks, typically for 20 to 22 hours each day, before moving on to the next set in the series.

 

As you progress through treatment, you’ll visit our office periodically so we can monitor your results and ensure everything is moving according to plan. Treatment times vary depending on individual needs, but many patients complete Invisalign treatment in 12 to 18 months.

How to Care for Your Invisalign Aligners

Taking good care of your aligners helps keep them clear, comfortable, and effective throughout your treatment. Best practices include:

  • Rinse your aligners every time you remove them.
  • Clean them daily using a soft toothbrush and lukewarm water or an Invisalign-approved cleaning solution.
  • Never use hot water, which can warp the plastic.
  • Remove your aligners before eating or drinking anything except water.
  • Brush and floss before putting your aligners back in.
  • Store your aligners in their protective case whenever they’re not in use.

Who Is a Candidate for Invisalign?

Invisalign is an excellent option for many teens and adults with mild to moderate orthodontic concerns. It can effectively treat issues such as crowded teeth, gaps between teeth, overbites, underbites, crossbites, and certain cases of crooked teeth. The best candidates are committed to wearing their aligners for the recommended 20 to 22 hours each day and following their treatment plan as closely as possible. During your consultation, we’ll examine your teeth, discuss your goals, and determine whether Invisalign is the right solution for your smile.
