Why Choose Invisalign Clear Aligners?
Invisalign clear aligners offer you comfort, convenience, and virtual invisibility during treatment. Some of the many reasons patients choose Invisalign clear aligners as a cosmetic dentistry option include:
- Comfortable and Virtually Invisible: Invisalign aligners are crafted from smooth, BPA-free plastic that feels comfortable against your teeth and gums. The smooth edges eliminate the irritation often associated with metal braces, making your Invisalign treatment a comfortable experience from start to finish.
- Customized Fit for Better Results: Invisalign aligners are customized for your teeth using advanced 3D imaging technology. Our Invisalign dentist creates precise molds or digital scans of your teeth to ensure each aligner fits perfectly and moves your teeth gradually into their ideal positions.
- Removable for Convenience: You can easily take them out for eating, drinking, brushing, and flossing, maintaining excellent oral hygiene throughout treatment. This flexibility also means you can remove your aligners for special occasions, important meetings, or photos, giving you complete control over your orthodontic journey.
The Invisalign Treatment Process
The Invisalign treatment process is smooth with our expert dental team. The Invisalign treatment process includes:
- Initial Consultation: Our experienced team examines your teeth, discusses your smile goals, and determines if Invisalign aligners are the perfect choice for you. We’ll explain the entire treatment process and answer any questions you may have about achieving your perfect smile.
- Treatment Plan and Wear Time: Using advanced digital imaging, we create a detailed treatment plan that maps out the movements of your teeth throughout your treatment. You’ll receive a series of custom aligners, typically wearing each set for 1-2 weeks before progressing to the next. For optimal results, aligners should be worn 20-22 hours daily, removing them only for eating, drinking, and oral hygiene.
- Regular Check-ups: Throughout your treatment, you’ll visit our office approximately every 6-8 weeks for progress check-ups. These appointments allow us to monitor your teeth’s movement, ensure your treatment progresses as planned, and provide you with your next aligners.
