What is Invisalign treatment?
Invisalign treatment is a modern orthodontic solution that uses a series of clear, custom-made aligners to gradually straighten teeth. Unlike traditional metal braces, Invisalign aligners are made from smooth, BPA-free plastic and fit comfortably over your teeth. These aligners are nearly invisible, making them a popular choice for individuals who want a subtle orthodontic treatment.
How Does Invisalign Treatment Work?
Invisalign treatment begins with a consultation where we will evaluate your smile and create a customized treatment plan. Digital impressions are used to design a series of aligners that gently shift your teeth into the desired position. Each set of aligners is worn for about two weeks before switching to the next in the series. The total length of treatment varies depending on your individual needs, but most patients complete Invisalign treatment in 12 to 18 months.
Benefits of Invisalign Clear Aligners
Invisalign aligners offer several advantages compared to traditional braces, making it an ideal choice for many patients:
- Discreet appearance: Clear aligners are virtually invisible, allowing you to straighten your teeth without noticeable braces.
- Comfortable fit: Made from smooth plastic, Invisalign aligners are comfortable to wear, with no metal brackets or wires that can irritate your mouth.
- Removable: Aligners can be taken out for eating, drinking and brushing, making it easy to maintain oral hygiene.
- Custom treatment: Each set of aligners is custom-made to fit your teeth, ensuring precise movement throughout the treatment.
- Convenient: Fewer office visits are required since there are no adjustments like with traditional braces.
