What Is Invisalign Treatment?
Invisalign clear braces are an orthodontic solution designed to correct dental misalignments without significantly impacting your daily life. They straighten your teeth by applying gentle pressure to specific parts of your smile to guide them into the right position. Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign treatment uses a series of transparent, custom-made aligners that can be removed at will. Invisalign treatment can be a great option for patients with mild to moderate alignment or bite issues.
Some common problems that teeth aligners can treat include:
- Crooked Teeth
- Crowding
- Gaps between teeth
- Overbite
- Underbite
Typically, treatment lasts 6-18 months. To see success, you should wear your aligners for at least 22 hours daily, only taking them out to eat, drink, and brush your teeth. You will graduate to a new tray approximately every two weeks, and we will regularly check on your progress with periodic dental visits.
Benefits of Invisalign Teeth Aligners
A major reason why patients choose Invisalign clear aligners over traditional braces is the convenience they provide. They are overall less intrusive on your daily life, as well as providing these other benefits:
- No restrictions on food
- Their discreet appearance is hardly noticeable to others
- Custom-fit trays are made of a soft, BPA-free plastic
- No permanent/semi-permanent attachments make it minimally invasive
- Easy to see your treatment progress in real-time
- Gentle, targeted pressure maximizes your comfort
- Easy to care for your oral health during treatment
Our Lakeview Invisalign Treatment Process
When you visit our practice seeking treatment with clear aligners, you can expect us to provide honest and compassionate care that prioritizes your oral health. During your initial consultation, we will thoroughly examine your smile to see if treatment with Invisalign clear aligners is the best solution.
Once we determine you are a good candidate for Invisalign treatment, we will use advanced technology, such as our iTero® intraoral camera, to create a custom treatment plan. We will create precise digital impressions of your smile to craft your clear aligners. Once you receive your first set of aligners, we can adjust them and ensure they fit comfortably. Our team will also take the time to answer any questions you have about what to expect and give you detailed instructions on caring for your smile and aligners. We will closely monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments throughout your treatment.
Maintaining Your Smile After Teeth Aligner Treatment
When your treatment is complete, a retainer will help maintain your results while your bite stabilizes. Our practice offers Vivera® retainers made with the same discreet material as your Invisalign clear aligners. They are also custom-made to fit comfortably, making transitioning from clear aligners to your retainer that much easier. We will provide detailed instructions on how often to wear your retainers to prevent your bite from relapsing. Regular dental visits and maintaining your dental hygiene with brushing and flossing are also essential to maintaining your oral health and protecting the longevity of your newly aligned smile.
FAQs About Invisalign Treatment
Our team is happy to walk you through the entire process for Invisalign treatment and answer all your questions and concerns. We will work closely with you throughout treatment so you always have a team by your side who is dedicated to your care. Some of the most common questions we get about Invisalign treatment include:
Contact our office immediately if you lose your aligners so we can order a replacement set if necessary. In the meantime, wear your previous set of aligners so you don't lose any treatment progress. You can avoid losing your clear aligners by keeping them in a case whenever you aren't wearing them.
With proper aftercare, the results of Invisalign can last a lifetime. Whatever your post-treatment needs, we are dedicated to helping you preserve your newly straightened smile.
Invisalign treatment can be a great option for patients who have had orthodontic treatment in the past. If your smile has relapsed, clear aligners can help shift your teeth back to the right positions without having to wear braces again.
