Invisalign® Clear Braces
Invisalign: Transforming Smiles, Discreetly
Invisalign is a revolutionary orthodontic treatment that offers an alternative to traditional braces, providing a discreet and convenient way to straighten teeth. This innovative system utilizes a series of clear, custom-made aligners to gradually shift teeth into their desired positions.
How Invisalign Works
- Consultation and Treatment Planning:
- The process begins with a comprehensive consultation with your Invisalign provider. They will evaluate your dental condition, discuss your goals, and create a customized treatment plan.
- Digital Impressions:
- Instead of traditional molds, digital impressions are taken of your teeth using 3D scanning technology. This creates a precise and detailed digital model of your bite.
- Custom Aligner Fabrication:
- Based on the digital model, a series of custom-made, clear aligners is created. Each set of aligners is designed to represent a specific stage of your teeth’s movement.
- Wearing the Aligners:
- You wear each set of aligners for approximately 1-2 weeks, as directed by your dentist or orthodontist. The aligners are removable, allowing you to take them out for eating, brushing, and flossing.
- Gradual Tooth Movement:
- Each set of aligners applies gentle and controlled forces to specific teeth, gradually shifting them into the desired positions. Regular check-ups with your Invisalign provider ensure the progress is on track.
- Advancing to New Aligners:
- Once a set of aligners has fulfilled its purpose, you move on to the next set in the series. This process continues until your teeth achieve the desired alignment.
- Treatment Completion:
- Upon completing the series of aligners, you’ll be provided with a retainer to help maintain the new position of your teeth.
Benefits of Invisalign:
- Discreet Appearance: Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible, making the treatment discreet and aesthetically pleasing.
- Comfortable: The aligners are made of smooth, comfortable materials, eliminating the irritation often associated with traditional braces.
- Removable: Unlike fixed braces, Invisalign aligners are removable, allowing you to eat your favorite foods and maintain optimal oral hygiene.
- Predictable Results: Invisalign treatment is guided by advanced computer technology, providing a predictable and customized approach to teeth straightening.
